I commend you for your generosity and philosophical belief of "go ahead and raise my taxes if that means my  brothers can have a better life.

As far as paying so much taxes, the following chart demonstrates just how much more you paid of your fair amount. I presume you are in the top 1% of taxpayers that funded 40 % of the Federal Income Tax Revenue.

Based on much of what you have said in this post, would it be fair to say you consider yourself to be a liberal leaning toward or having a Tea Party philosophy?
