Occupy Wall Street wants Congress to allow the Bush-era tax cuts for the ultra wealthy to expire.
Republicans want to keep these tax cuts because they claim the benefits will “trickle down” to the rest of the nation.
But in all this debate, no one seems to care what the ultra wealthy want for themselves.
So some patriotic members of the 1% made a video to set the record straight. (Note: this video was made a few months ago, but Congress is STILL quibbling over how to increase revenue…)

+ add your ownWell done to them.
Good for them, mI do believe those who have should pay their fair share how did itever come about that they got these better tax breaks!, hardly reasonable, same seems to happen in so many countries, greed!
This video was very gratifying to watch. I don't live in America, but watching the "We are the 99%" protests unfold has enabled to me to feel a sense of solidarity with those across the globe who are looking at the top 1% and calling out the government that helped to create the grossly imbalanced distribution of wealth.
Seeing a group of those whose personal finances place them in the 1% agree with the ideals of so many "below" them is a wonderful thing. This is caring, and it can also happen in those who have personal benefits from the current arrangement. =)
I just didn't believe the headline. Thought it should be published on April 1.
Careful...these people will be run out of town!
There is no national debt in bankruptcy to IMF, the fraud is better term. fiat currency ponzi scam even better..IMF owns America and all common wealth countries and you :0) there is no currency..only debt instruments..colored money..colored courts and fraud, treason and bleating deluded sheeple..slaves to IMF..Mafia, taxation is theft and fraud. IRS is collection agency for IMF..all IMF..NWO is IMF..sigh..ignorance is blissfully delusional.
IMF foreclosing on America and all developed pillaged world of slaves to convention and propaganda..hold on tight if you don't get doing your diligence and understand the statutory law fraud and the remedy soon..UCC1-308, Dean Clifford..new game on..you are the pawn..Fed is IMF..all IMF..District Columbia is IMF ..Obama is IMF.. UN is IMF..heh..
I'm tired of this mantra..you have no rights, no freedoms.. you have benefits.. like cops to fleece you for IMF..courts to cheat you for IMF..think all this economic trouble is an accident of birth.. well it is..:0) your birth..a bond was created..undisclosed to anyone..statutory law is commerce law..if it attempts to abbrogate, or circumvent the constitution it is void..same for charter of rights freedoms..all commercial..corporate laws apply to corporations and employees of corporations..like the United States of district of Columbia.. a corporate city state screwing 350 million Americans daily for centuries..and you still go on about all the wonderful things America is.. it is an illusion and
I'm for making their wish come true!
This video should have gotten more publicity.
Thanks for the article.
