During a campaign stop in Iowa on Thursday, Vice President Joe Biden responded to accusations coming from the GOP that the Obama administration wants to raise taxes by $1 trillion. Well, he confirmed that they are true anyway, saying “Yes we do” as he called on the rich to pay more taxes.
“On top of the trillions of dollars of spending that we have already cut, we’re gonna ask – yes – we’re gonna ask the wealthy to pay more — My heart breaks, come on man,” Biden said sarcastically.

Knock yourself out Joe. Keep on attempting to play Robin Hood-steal from the rich to give to the poor. It's not a problem. Millionaires and billionaires are renouncing their US citzenship in record numbers to avoid paying these outrageous taxes since Obama took office.
When are the 47% going to wise up?
lol..he even looks as dumb as he is
I don't know the math - but I think in order to get a trillion, these clowns will need to really stick it to everyone above the family $250K and individual $200K limits.
It's not possible and it's too bad 47% of the voter (biden and obama included) haven't even the simplest concept of this. IRS's own statistics say only around 2% of US incomes are above $250,000 and they account for roughly a quarter of total household incomes. Even if the gov't took ALL of those above this marks money it wouldn't come near biden's figures. It's not a revenue problem the feds have but a spending problem.
This is just assnine. It's not even possible. Everyone would be broke including billionaires. One trillion is a billion times one thousand.
What kind of moron would ever believe this moron? All this dope is doing is trying to make people think we'd be swimming in a sea of a trillion dollars if wealthy people would pay more. People like Biden are either stupid or think people are stupid and will believe this crap.
Beside even if they got the trillion it would take the obama admin 1/2 a year (little less) to spend it. Then what? It's not a revenue problem but an out of control spending problem.
They are coming up with this ridiculousness out of desparation. The Romney's are squeakly clean honest people and they can't go down that road without sounding silly so now they are preying on people's stupidity and lack of understanding of the big bucks. It's like the skewed job numbers released today.
Ron Paul would've been great. $hit. Now we have the lesser of two evils just like the last 40 years of my voting career. I will "throw away" my vote to Mr. Paul, and hope if that throws a vote for Obummer, well, maybe someone will do the right thing. Which would leave us with Biden... Oh, God, help us! Maybe it will be a broader correction, which will leave us with Baynor. OK. I'm good. Voting for Paul, who really deserves and has earned this Presidency.
