Warren Buffett: Stop Coddling the Super-Rich!

But in effect that's what makes him right - economics, like all social sciences, isn't 100% accurate. We're dealing with people afterall. The theoretical doesn't work out in real life - raising taxes is supposed to drive off investment but in reality it doesn't (at least not that much) but like cutting taxes is supposed to increase jobs but again in reality it doesn't.
 
We're already paying for spending we already did due to lower expected revenues resulting from the 2001 Tax Act. I'm not sure how lowering taxes on one of the most reliable tax bases that actually can afford it is a practical solution.
 
So if that assumption is correct (investors won't run from the market), there is no reason not to raise taxes on qualified dividenRAB and capital gains in respect to portfolio income.
 
You misquoted an argument you dipshit. I'm not going to argue against what nobody said. I am certainly not going to argue against something I never said that you are trying to hold against me.

we idiots who have apparently never taken a philosophy class call that a straw man.
 
Because if he gave extra money out of the goodness of his heart it wouldn't impact anything it's something that neeRAB to happen to all of the upper class
