Did you even bother to find out who that 47% you keep talking about?

• More than half are elderly

• one-third are nonelderly with income under $20,000

• Only about 1 in 20 is nonelderly with income over $20,000

But...the rich elite (not say you are) keep pointing and saying LOOK THESE GUYS AREN"T PAYING TAXES!!

Yeah, let's tax a person who can't even afford to support themselves on less than 20k. That's very smart.
