Remember Democrats: 10% of the people own 70% of the wealth
And 70% of Americans have no appreciable wealth.

Bill Moyers said this on Olbermann, just a few minutes ago..........so please look at his re-broadcast at 10 PM in your time zone.


I believe Bill Moyers, more than I do Hillary, so call me biased.

Do you really want to vote for McCain in November??

2. I don't have to remember, I think about it every day
I live at the poverty level, three kids, old truck, etc. The only saving grace, is that I now own my land, after 30 years, and built my own house.

4. No. 70% of fed taxes paid by top 10% wage earners in 2005
not wealth. There is a difference.
