[quote=anonymous]I hear politicians saying the wealthy need to "give back more" all the time - and you do too.[/quote]
I’m confident I’ve never used that phrase. That phrase is foreign to my perspective on taxation. I have a username, so it would be easy to search and find that quote or one like it from me.

Sorry, you misunderstood. I was saying that you hear the phrase all the time, not that you use it.

But I am done engaging with you. You are disingenuous in your responses. And you have a preset view of where everyone who disagrees with you is coming from. I don't watch "Faux News" as you call them. I don't read Rep websites or blogs. I mostly listen to NPR and read the New York Times. And my statements about the attitudes I am hearing toward the rich and taxation are about things Obama has said and other politicians have said, and then probably also from some NPR guests.

I know what you will say. It is your favorite response: "No one is saying that. Give me a quote. Where's the quote."

Well, you know what, most people don't have photographic memories. And I could search online to find a few quotes and give them to you. But I KNOW that you KNOW these things are being said. That's one reason I'm done with you. Average people, smart people, even very smart people, hear politicians and pundits say things overtime and the listener develops a sense of the overall statement being made. When I talk to my liberal or progressive friends, they don't claim these statements aren't being made. The discuss the substance with me; whether we should think the rich aren't paying their"fair share." I can see why you think the world is all about tactics. Tactics are your intellectual impulse.

You said in a different post that I should get a username, after I asked that you to address the ideas more and the tactic/deluded/motivation questions less. This is a mostly anonymous forum. If you can only engage respectfully with people who also have user names, that leaves you with PenguinSix and a few others, most of whom aren't on the political forum. [/quote]
