make the rich pay the debt; problem solved.

The cost-benefit on that doesn't work out. Taxing the lower half of the country costs many votes and doesn't raise much revenue. It's far more effective to turn populist, demonize a small nuraber of the "rich" and pit the majority against them.
 
agreed completely - the bottom line is that our tax code is horrible and neeRAB to be thrown out entirely. getting rid of some deductions and closing unknown loop holes is just rhetoric
 
You are calling me a retard and you don't even know what the debt is?






Yeah, I'm sure they will just hang around for years to come paying 100% of what they make, as opposed to moving to another country. I'm sure those "evil rich people" would suddenly have a come to Jesus moment and work for FREE for decades to come. Right?

You're a moron, just like that lurker.
 
i'm not talking even about the "working rich" im talking about the top 1%, these people who own everything in the country already, they should pay for this mess which their greed has helped to cause.
 
The irony is that the self-assured cool kiRAB said "life isn't fair". The loser thought it was unfair how he was being treated, the kiRAB thought it was unfair they were getting murdered just cause they gave some loser a hard time. It's all about perspective..

The same goes for the rich and the poor.
 
because who's going to buy those $2499.00 bottles of premium label liquor? whats going to happen to the guy working at the liquor store??
 
I think it's time we test this theory. The fact is, it isn't 1920 anymore and the rich people are not industrialists or farmers who actually do anything worthwhile. Where are they going to go anyway?
