My Fair Share
Sep. 19th, 2011 10:23 pmDear President Obama,
There have been a lot of video clips in the news lately showing you and other politicians expressing the belief that Americans should pay their "fair share" in income taxes; however, no one seems able to define, much less agree upon, what constitutes this mysterious fair share.
I happen to believe that my "fair share" of taxation is ten percent of my income with no deductions--the same amount I would give to a church.
Does that seem fair to you? And if it doesn't, who are you to judge?
Sincerely,
Me
