Patriotism according to Biden...

Noting that wealthier Americans would indeed pay more, Biden said: “It’s time to be patriotic … time to jump in, time to be part of the deal, time to help get America out of the rut.”

I'm sorry Mr. Biden... I have no idea what the heck you're talking about. This has got to be one of the most...if not THE most asinine thing that I've heard in a LONG time. How dare you infer that patriotism is somehow related to paying more taxes. The last time I checked I get AT LEAST $600 taken from my paycheck every other week. Like many other Americans our money gets used for only God knows what, and our measly tax returns are all we get back for giving thousands and thousands of dollars a year to the government!! If my contribution along with every other taxpayer in this country isn't enough, then I suggest that you and your cronies find a better solution...because giving more money means someone living high on the hog while other people suffer! This is so infuriating. I can't believe you want more people to pay more so we can get the nation out of a major crisis that was created by greed!!! Bail yourselves out. Tell the guys that stuffed their pockets with millions upon millions of dollars to give it back. You were willing to forgo the good of the country to get rich...and now look where we are! Don't blame the failing economy on the American people, blame it on the men who were willing to look the other way, and be bought off...RAISE THEIR TAXES. I like the majority of Americans are extremely patriotic and it has nothing to do with the amount of taxes I pay.
Senator Biden you're a mess.
