44. my point in posting this was not to validate anything the Pigman said.

The point really is that I heard him say this about 10 years ago, and I continue to hear it echoing from the lips of complacent suburbanites I know personally - people who can afford trips to Europe, but still whine about their tax "burden".

And as another poster mentioned, it's been echoed by the likes of John Stossel, who is a right-wing shill, but poses as a nonpartisan reporter on a "legit" news show.


It's just amazing how crap like this circulates around and around and around without EVER being questioned.

I wonder how many democrats at dinner parties have sat silent when some ass mouthed these "statistics"?
