This person apparently does not know any middle class people. Look at how he degrades the middle and working class people.
"To some, they are low-income Americans benefiting from smart and targeted welfare run through the tax code. To others, they are unacceptable free riders, contributing net zero or worse to the federal government...the IRS as 'Sugar Daddy.'"
He is directing his "freeloading" comments to anyone who gets a tax refund. Can you believe this? Hardworking people, those who are under-employed, have to take a tongue lashing from this MF? Please. Go have a kid, then raise it instead of being selfish and too stupid and cheap to hire a CPA and get some tax shelters.

Participate in Share Your Story of the Dream
NAACP | Share Your Story of the Dream
The 47th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s March on Washington is just days away.
Thanks to stories from men and women all across the country, the NAACP social media history campaign to remember that historic day has been an incredible success.
Each story we receive stands as a reminder of the challenges we have overcome and our perseverance to carry on. And although each story was unique, they were all powered by the same four words: I have a dream.
Do not miss out on this opportunity to be a part of history. Tell the NAACP how Dr. King's epic speech inspired you:

Last week, to commemorate Dr. King, a woman named Gloria wrote in to tell us her story. Her words really inspired me:
When you shared your thoughts you proved something that I have always felt: that the dream is still alive and we are all a part of it.
This movement is so much bigger than one person or one speech. It is the culmination of centuries of struggle triumphing over oppression, forging the path toward equality. And every story brings us one step closer to achieving that dream.
Share your story with the NAACP today:

P.S. -- This Saturday I will be walking the streets of DC with the National Action Network for "Reclaiming the Dream." The event will commemorate the anniversary of the March on Washington with proper respect. If you're in the DC area, please join us:

Last week, to commemorate Dr. King, a woman named Gloria wrote in to tell us her story. Her words really inspired me:
"On August 28, 1963, I was sitting in my all black class room with my fellow students glued to the TV. I was feeling very important that day not just because of my turning twelve years old, which was a big thing for me, but also because I was experiencing something that I was to carry with me for the rest of my life.
"When Dr. King's time to speak finally came I was hooked, I knew that my place and my purpose was to hear and to experience the soul of a Dream. That fateful day would not only define the struggle of a people, my people, it would forever create in me the proud Black person, woman, wife, mother, and grandmother that I am today. I will always remember the day August 28,1963 as the day I vowed to always make my people's struggle mine. Thank You Dr. King for helping us strive for the Reality."
