Some people go around, they say, well, the President is engaging in class warfare. That’s not class warfare. That’s common sense. That’s common sense. (Applause.) Asking a billionaire to pay at least as much as his secretary when it comes to his tax rate — that’s just common sense. Because Warren Buffet is doing fine, I‘m doing fine. We don’t need the tax breaks. You need them. (Applause.)

You‘re the ones who see your wages stall. You‘re the one whose costs of everything from college to groceries has gone up. You‘re the ones who deserve a break.
