[QUOTE="TearsInRain, post: 821921, member: 24487"] you can make whatever arguments you want, history has proven that taxing the rich at high levels is good for the economy and society in general maybe it's not "fair", whatever that means, maybe it doesn't seem to make sense numbers-wise, but once you factor in human psychology, it works, and it has always worked the reverse, giving tax breaks to the rich, has historically resulted in recession, economic bubbles, and social unrest humans will never be perfect, profit-seeking, rationalizing, Ayn Rand-type heroes (can't form a society on sociopathy), so you might as well get used to it [/QUOTE]
