"extract from the country", "take out of the country"; when you use phrases like this to characterize how you believe wealthy people "steal" from the economy or from their fellow citizens, you sound like a socialist and you would probably be better off keeping your thoughts to yourself, or maybe get out to a Bernie rally.

The rich pay everyone's share. sadly... the regular"rich" get balled in with the mega -rich .001%. The .001% exploit the system and pay little tax in comparison with what they extract from the country. I talking about the infrastructure, resources, military... etc. small business owners who managed to make themselves millionaires are not the problem... in fact they are the backbone of the U.S. The only RICH that are not paying thier fair share are way beyond the bottom .999% of the top 1% Even thought the ultra rich are not paying in what they take out of the country... they are not the enemy. The politicians that do their bidding are the enemy. "extract from the country", "take out of the country"; when you use phrases like this to characterize how you believe wealthy people "steal" from the economy or from their fellow citizens, you sound like a socialist and you would probably be better off keeping your thoughts to yourself, or maybe get out to a Bernie rally. You can gargle on biliionaire balls all you want .... sycophantic cattle never cease to amaze me as they offer up backsides again and again and say it isn't rape if you like it...... sorry I don't like it. Go through this time line and see if special interests among the .001% don't rob the country of more blood and treasure than they bring in. http://www.historycommons.org/timeline.jsp?timeline=complete_911_timeline&before_9/11=pipelinePolitics Unrestrained capitalism ends in tyranny as sure as unrestrained socialism. It's the common sense balance of the two where civilization flourishes. |

Yes. All this BS about rich people not paying enough is just that. It's class warfare propaganda of the socialist/ultra-lefties The left have gotten a hell of a lot of mileage out of the class/wealth warfare bullshit. They have become masters at convincing a very large percentage of the population that just about anyone who makes or has more goodies than they do are evil and must be punished by paying much more or have that wealth taken from them one way or another. It is truly amazing to see those morons lap up the shit that Sanders/Clinton and their ilk spew. This country is being torn apart from within and one of the main forces behind that destruction is this IMO.

Define "Fair".
Then define "Fair share". I made less than my employees, for the last 4 years, while paying taxes in excess of the avg. American Burbtard. Listening to the local Teachers, and white collar drones bitch and snivel, when they have risked nothing, cracks me up. Listening to the retarded anti-Ag morons bitch, reminds me that sheep, even wannabe Conservative sheep, are still dumbfuck animals. The concept of "Fair", is something best left to natural law. |

Even if they paid the same rates as everyone else, what people ALWAYS fail to talk about is they do the lion's share of investment and risk in starting business and inspiring entrepreneurial growth. The ultra-rich are the prosperity engine. They will take all the risks that make the next Google and Amazon, or Apple & Lululemon for people to work at and thrive under, and all the small businesses that rely on venture capitalists. They are also the early-adopters of all the technology and advancements that you have to have in order for things to trickle down to us....just think about big-screen TV's. When they were $9,000, who was going to buy them to keep the technology rolling? Super rich. Now? You can buy them for $200. When you attack them, shit grinds to a halt. Liberals need to be assaulted with this argument. When I've explained this to people who are populist or Bernie folks, it's what reaches them more than taxation talk. When the ultra rich are the prosperity engine, and the first barrier to entrepreneurship is to talk money out of the ultra rich, you have a system where venture capital goes to pampered cronies and silver-tounged snake oil salesmen rather than skilled, intelligent craftsmen. |
