those stats can't be right, cause according to Obama, the rich already pay the less in taxes than the middle class.



You completely misunderstood what he said.


"I’ll tell you what, if asking a billionaire to pay the same tax rate as a plumber or a teacher or a bus driver makes me a warrior for the middle class, I will wear that charge with honor," he told donors in Dallas earlier this month.


of course that stuff is going to be largely rhetorical, but you're more than bright enough to understand what he is getting at: the distinction between income (ie wages paid for rented labor) and capital gains taxes.
