Why?

Editor,

A guy from White Plains complains that the "10% who pay taxes" are being demonized by people who want too much.

My question for this poster is: Why do the people who take care of your kids, mow your lawns, pull your lattes, clean up after you in restaurants, wait on you in retail outlets, take care of your ailing parents in nursing homes, sew the clothes you wear, sell you shoes, etc. etc. etc. not make enough money to pay federal income tax?

And why are the taxes you pay given to giant corporations, Wall Street banks, and the biggest, most aggressive military on this planet?
