text: So he is back to his only talking point that he goes to the fundraisers "to help the middle class".  What a pile of BS!  I am "middle class" and he has done absolutely nothing for me other than reach into my wallet and take cash to pay for all of this governments "vanity projects".  
  
  This taxing the top 1% earners in the population is ridiculous.  What nobody mentions is that people in that category have accountants and holding companies to ensure that they minimize their tax bills.  I spoke to one friend that is a high earner and he basically stated that in a five minute conversation with his accountant he legally ensured that he would never pay the additional tax rate.  
  
  Basically this is another vote buying, revenue negative program that we will all have to pay for with higher taxes.
