Pay Your Income Tax: 1943 Disney Propoganda - YouTube

Not only was it approved by the Treasury Secretary, it received an Academy Award nomination for "Best Documentary Feature." Even President Roosevelt himself had a hand in approving Donald Duck as the main character.

If you actually watch it, you might notice on a yearly pay of $2,501 Donald pays $13 dollars as a single caretaker of 3 dependents. That works out to a .00519 percent tax rate.

Corporations can pay less than that.
Corporate Tax Collections at All Time Low

But, someone's trying to fix those loop holes. Lawmakers from both political parties vow to tackle the nation's financial problems. Republicans in Congress promise big spending cuts, and Obama says he wants to reshape corporate taxes, closing loopholes to pay for lower overall rates. Few in Washington, however, are calling for big tax increases, at least in the short term.

Not for everyone. A good many here think hoarding all their money and saying "*********" to everyone else is "patriotic."

I agree. The 49% of American's who pay ZERO federal income taxes should be forced into government submission like the rest of us.

But, nope. That won't happen. Liberals are only patriotic if they think the rich are not paying enough when nearly a majority of American's pay nothing. If they truly believed tax burdens were good, they'd promote tax fairness by demanding that everyone pay their "fair share."
