Not Even a Whole Penny for the Top One Percent

 

Obama says freezing pay for all federal workers will save $2 billion over the rest of this fiscal year.

 

Two BILLION dollars…I wonder how much you would have to raise taxes on the wealthiest one percent to raise two BILLION DOLLARS over the course of the fiscal year? Crap, this can't be right…

 A whole  0.072 percentage points!*

Crap that is like totally nothing! No wonder they are raising such a fucking shitstorm about keeping their Bush tax cuts! Obama would have to freeze the pay of his "money people" back to the Ice Ages to make as much money as you could just skimming it all from them.
