Teapublicans are full of it if they say they value work. Earned income is taxed more than UNearned income. They value money that makes more money.

Mitt Romney said Tuesday he pays roughly a 15% effective tax rate on his income - an acknowledgment that the multi-millionaire pays a smaller percentage of taxes on his income than many middle-income Americans. "It's probably closer to the 15 percent rate than anything," Romney told reporters.

Its ole Zed! Welcome! Finally found sumptin of interest to comment about eh? Read that too. Funny, he has more to tax than me, yet my "effective tax rate" is a lot higher than Romney's.

Welcome to America!

BTW my profession has a high percentage of folks in the 1%. I is definitely not among them.
