TRANSCRIPTION: In a country that was founded on Justice and equality. There's something wrong with a tax system that cheats the average American the tax laws of this country are a disgrace to the human race. The surest income to be taxed as income earned. From manual labor denied any hidden tax loopholes for people who draw a paycheck every week or every two weeks but they are a lot of tax loopholes for people who are rich. And you have those lobbyists working in Washington. Full time to retain the special privilege. The average family in this country that makes less than $10 000 a year actually pays a higher proportion of their income in taxes than the average family. In this country that makes more than a million dollars a year. That's disgraceful. If you agree that the time for basic tax reform is now do something about it. Vote for Jimmy Carter a leader for a change.
