[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 2251190, member: 24302"] No denying that. But if the rich don't invest their money in new ideas and businesses then where are the jobs going to come from? I've said all along we must convince the wealthy to pay better. How is that done? Armed rebellion? When countries divested out of South African stocks apartheid ended. Want to bring the rich in this country to their knees? Divest out of your 401k's. It's the only way to get them to listen and if you aren't willing to do that don't complain. The "1%" aren't getting super rich off of their salaries. It's the stock options and the 401k system. Literally our money is making them so wealthy and we're doing it to ourselves. People that say tax, tax, tax don't realized that the top 10% of earners pay more than 50% of income taxes. So keep jacking up rates, see where that gets you. [/QUOTE]
