I don't see what's so bad about increasing the handicap for people that are really good at making money. It evens things out. Taxes should feel the same to everyone. Right now, taxes on the obscenely rich do no feel the same as they do to me. They don't matter to them. They should matter. We should all have the same burden.
I'm sure now you'll just call me a bunch of bad names, and clearly you can't understand my position and so you'll have to resort to personal attacks or whatever, and I'm OK with that.
I don't see why people are having such a hard time with the concept of returning tax rates on the extreme wealthy back to what they used to be. We're not talking about "gutting" them or whatever. They are all doing quite well. They are not under attack.
It's strange, though, that the people protecting their tax cuts seem to be people who would not benefit from their tax cuts. I don't actually hear the extreme wealthy agitating for tax breaks. It's the have-nots that are working so hard to keep the rich from shouldering a proportional burden.
Weird.
