This makes me think that you don't really care about the numbers, or the reality, at all. As long as you can find some statistic that seems to let the "rich" "get away with something", you are incensed. Or, more accurately, you can find a more acceptable reason to be incensed than the real one - your party lost to the hated Bush.
If all the Kerry people simply put their hated tax break into an envelope and sent it in to their own choice of charity, I'm betting we could have wiped out poverty. But, no, that wouldn't be possible, because the fact that the enemy is getting away with something is far more important than the facial excuse of "we love the disadvantaged, and you hate them".

Plus, you sound bitter. Go ride your motorcycle some more. You can tell the clientI said it was OK.
