Reference IV Post 24720it is not REVENUE that is the PROBLEM for the US economy the US brings in over 200 BILLION a MONTH in Revenue that is over a Trillion a year in revenues ... it is SPENDING that is the Problem.
Buffet is a 50 Billionaire... and Gates is a 40 Billionaire give or take... if you took every PENNY they owned to pay taxes,that would only amount to less than 100 Billion...
Now there are approx 2.7 Millionaires in the US ... now let us say we take every PENNY they have as well.... it amounts to three or four hundred Billion ah say a Trillion for arguments sake...
In the world there is approx... 84,500 Millionaires that have over 30 Million.... all their money amounts to approx. 3 Trillion... give or take a few hundred billion dollars... so what we up to now... about well let us say for arguments sake lets be REALLY REALLY REALLY liberal with the figures... and it amounts to 10 TRILLION Liberally Speaking...
US DEBT is still by the year according to the latest figures going to be 22 TRILLION by 2018 to 2020 give or take a month... so we are shy 12 Trillion .... NOT to mention the unfunded Liabilites of the US ... which is said to be 60 to 70 TRILLION Dollars... oh yes we have to add in the new health care publically funded ...
the FREE creates Jobs ... and CREATES wealth...
