Let me know when the president releases a tax cut that benefits the other 98% of the population, and I'll clap.

i think you need to study macro economics a little.
it may have escaped your attention that the "rich" have the money. the "rich" create business and jobs. its interesting that you mention a typically backwards and ignorant remark like "laughing all the way to the bank"... what about banks? did it occur to you that money in banks is where investment comes from? its where your house loan came from... your car loan... and your massive credit card debt that allows you to live beyond your means. its those banks that form the very foundation of a free market economy and economic system.
i understand that you may be real dissapointed that Chairman Mao and Lenin did not really achieve their backwards objectives of stealing everyones property and redistributing it successfully to make the world a fair place, without pain, tears, sadness, hunger and pain... it was an admirable dream... and still is, no matter how much misery its proponents create for the very people the claim to be fighting for.
but the fact is that the wealthiest people and companies drive the economy... not the poorest.
