Warren Buffet (a multi...multi billionaire) ...said that it was unfair that his personal secretary who he paid 90 plus thousand per year...has to pay more in income tax then he does. When President Bush cut taxes on the wealthy so that they would use the increased net to produce more jobs (the trickle down effect)...Warren Buffet said the tax cut put 300 million in his pocket and the 300 million would not create a single new job. There are many wealthy people that have stated that they would not mind paying more income taxes...but as long as the tax breaks for them are availalbe they of course will use it to their advantage.
Martha Stewart...just a week or so ago stated on the Cuvuto show that she for one does not mind at all paying taxes and would be willing to pay more in taxes. I have heard some wealthy stars say that they would not mind paying up to 50% in income taxes...but have said that they would like to keep at least $1.00 out of every $2.00 they earn.
