The 47%

Said Romney: “These are people who pay no income tax. My job is is not to worry about those people. I’ll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives.”

I want to take this time to explain who the 47% are. If you look at the pie chart you will see that 28.3% pay payroll tax(meaning they have a job), 10.3% are the elderly(your grandma), 6.9% make under $20,000(the working poor), and 1% is others. That statement by Romney is dramatically out of touch with how hard most middle-class people work and how hard they find it to make ends meet. Hell, according to Romney your grandma and grandma don't take personal responsibility. You're so out of touch Mitt:facepalm:
