America punishes minority group with punitive taxation

Its true.  There are latinos, gays, blacks, jews, and native americans who are forced by the country to pay for half of the country's bills.  And if they don't pay, their property is forcibly taken from them and they are thrown into prison.  In fact, the IRS specifically targets them in audits.  Why are members of these minority groups punished with such brutal, punitive taxes?  What crime have these minorities committed to be punished in such a way?  Was it murder?  Treason?  Did they commit bank robbery?  No....it was something that the American voter considers even more evil than murder or rape.


Their crime was.... ....being rich!  

That's right, they committed the unconscionable crime of being fortunate, working hard and taking chances that worked out to their advantage.  Did I forget to mention that this is also the same fate of all wealthy people in America?  Their real criminal minority status isn't being black or gay or latino or jewish.  The minority status they achieved that led to their punishment is found, not in their house of worship or genetic material or their homeland; but in their IRS 1040 Tax Return.  When it comes to punishment by taxation, they are in the same boat as any other race or religion or sexual orientation or ethnicity.  After all, today's America would never punish them for such trivialities because, we like to think, we have moved far beyond blaming one group for our problems.  We like to think we don't victimize our neighbors for our own benefit we gleefully light the torches to burn the wealthy at the stake at every opportunity (though we all want to be rich!)


Today, America's hatred is directed at one minority more than any other....the wealthy!


Most Americans support punitively taxing this one minority group.  In California, the same voters who cry for equal treatment for gays (which they are absolutely right to insist on!) gleefully reversed their thinking as they voted to punish one minority group by making them pay 47% of the state's taxes while in, Rev Al Sharpton's back yard, New York City voters smilingly voted to force this tiny minority into paying half of all taxes.  And across the country Americans laughingly voted punitive taxes onto this one group, making them pay for 40% of the country's bills.

Always makes me wonder why people always talk about making the rich "pay their fair share"?  I figure if I go to dinner with 100 friends and I pay half the dinner bill, I have paid 4900% more than my fair share.  I would think anyone at the dinner table would think that I paid more than my fair share.  When you look at America's "dinner bill" we have the exact same situation.  But which one of you would use force me to pay the dinner bill?  Most likely, none of you would.  And then, which among you would then, after making me pay half of the dinner bill, which of you would have the audacity to say that I didn't pay my fair share and should pay more?  Probably even less.

Yet most Americans, including some of you reading this, don't think twice about sending armed goons after their neighbors to take their money from them and then tell those same victimized neighbors that they don't pay their fair share. 

I guess that's why people leave, as they have been doing in NJ, to areas of lower taxation.  We will get what we deserve.
