Rich must shoulder tax burden if democracy is to survive

In case you missed it, there was a very good article in the City Pages about democracy and taxation. NY Times Investigative Reporter David Kay Johnston knows more about the US tax code than just about anyone. He explains exactly who is paying more tax, who is paying less and why the richest 1% of America can get away with paying very little.
Beware. The article will infuriate you. But it also will give you the proper ammunition when Governor Pawlenty trys to prevent the repeal of those tax cuts for the rich.
