Rck,
Re -read the post - Your numbers are simply a budget look, and as far off the point as possible.
The point: put some numbers out showing how raising taxes on the richest individuals will raise revenue's, IN THE LONG TERM.

Every graph I've posted in these 400 plus pages shows the spike in revenue immediately after a tax hike then is followed by a overall decline as we the frigging people move our wealth away from the takers and fakers.

John's post above was right on, Clinton raised taxes and overall lost revenue (in a booming economy mind you) while Bush has cut taxes and shown a revenue increase that exceeds the GDP growth rate -

Do Dem's really need a lesson or an example better than that? Why do they persist in this false idea? Politics, that's why.
