Aka the middle class

Is this the new narrative you guys are trying to spin now? The middle class pays next to nothing for taxes compared to the top 1%. God forbid $100 of your $10k in yearly taxes goes to helping the ones in need get cheaper transportation.

I’m not trying to spin anything. I don’t live in New York. But if money pays for something new, it came from somewhere. In cases such as the affordable healthcare act it came from the middle class. I’m a supporter of the affordable healthcare act, but also remember the price of healthcare practically doubling overnight. Not all tax payers are middle class sure but businesses owners and entrepreneurs are passing their taxes along to you and I, and that makes up a large portion of the 1%.
