Romney paid 14%. That's what I tip when I get poor service!
For good service I tip 20%. Great service is 25%. And I've even tipped over 100% under very special circumstances.
According to Zagat the US average tip is 19.2%. And that's just for serving our tables!
That's not for providing us with national defense, police and firefighters, roads and bridges, food for the hungry, and medical aid for the indigent, and a system which allowed him to thrive.
I don't want to say he's an ungrateful SOB, but if my waiter made be a quarter of a billion dollars, I'm sure I could dig deep and find more than 14%!
That is all.

The right's contemt for the working class knows no bounds.

Running their mouth off about how they are Taxed Enough Already, when clearly they are not, only calls attention to just how little they pay.
One would think they wouldn't want that info on display for the 99%ers to find out that they pay more in taxes then the one-percenters.
Bitching about the 36% tax rate, finding ways around it and still demanding a tax cut.
Just shut and pay your paltry 14% or whatever amount, already. Morans.

If it were required and you received shitty services would you have something to say then?
