I want Democrats to have to answer the question. And I know we're not very far away from April 15th, which is not a very happy day for a lot of our listeners out there. But what is a fair share? I pay 40% of my income to the federal government most years now. 40%, boom, I work until May, so I'm still working basically for the federal government. What would be a fair share?

We have an insanely, an insanely aggressive tax policy for people who actually pay taxes. First of all, and very few people talk about this, income taxes are only paid by about 50% of the United States population. So, first of all, right off the top, over, I think it's 51% of people don't pay a single dollar in federal income tax. Now, payroll taxes is different, right?

I'm talking about federal income taxes. And then a lot of you... You live in New York, you're listening to us right now. You live in California. You live in Illinois. Then you have to pay another 12% or 13% state income tax, and then that doesn't even get into what your property taxes are going to be or what your sales taxes are going to be. I mean, the government is taxing us like crazy.

I will say, when you look at these arguments, isn't it interesting they never get pushed back? They say, you should pay your fair share. That's their line. What is the fair share?
