Tax breaks for the rich and corporate welfare are taxpayer money. Or didn't you get that far in school?

This is "consumer" money too.....
 
Compared to what they produce, teachers are already overpaid.....and their benefits are better than Obamas...
 
That's corporate welfare (taxpayer's money), which rightwingnuts claim the "private sector" doesn't need or get.

Corporations and the rich got plenty of tax money from Bush. Partly by not having to pay their fair share of taxes.

Until there are caps on CEO pay, executive bonuses and corporate dividends it is immoral to protest a paltry pay raise for teachers.

Even someone with limited intelligence should understand the numbers...

The table above shows that the top-earning 25 percent of taxpayers (AGI over $62,068) earned 67.5 percent of nation's income, but they paid more than four out of every five dollars collected by the federal income tax (86 percent). The top 1 percent of taxpayers (AGI over $364,657) earned approximately 21.2 percent of the nation's income (as defined by AGI), yet paid 39.4 percent of all federal income taxes. That means the top 1 percent of tax returns paid about the same amount of federal individual income taxes as the bottom 95 percent of tax returns.
