Romney's little youtube economics lesson has caused a great deal of question asking and note taking….where are all those non tax paying people, why are they not paying tax, are they really all Obama supporters? Funny thing is, and when I say funny thing I mean its not really funny but man it is a hoot, when you map out the folks Romney was talking about you get a map that shades some interesting co joined Venn diagrams…such as the one of Romney Supporters and the one of Highest Tax Non Payers … compare the image link below with this image….http://elections.nytimes.com/2012/electoral-map   In a very real way the Romney is the candidate of the Non Payer…..
Of course if you have been following along with the links and whatnots you will note that the term NonPayer is a fantastically convoluted one. Mostly it turns out these are the folks so broke they fall into that part of the legitimate tax code that has them paying nearly zero. The congnative dissonence of folks being so broke voting for policies that will make them even more broke…the mind spins in such a way that you are apt to hear Yakov Smirnoff chanting "what a country" over and over and over…..
