That's the way it appears to me too.

No offense against Rochard...but THAT is the big question isn't it?
Since everybody thinks it's so easy to be "rich"...then why don't those same people go out and do it themselves instead of working for a salary?
And back to the REAL topic:
Can ANYBODY on here who is FOR raising taxes on the rich...please explain HOW that is going to help get us out of debt?
If they raise the income tax rate it still will NOT RAISE TAXES ON THE RICH BECAUSE THEY EARN MONEY FROM CAPITAL GAINS.
(by the way...Mitt Romney's tax plan for capital gains is to leave it at 15% for people like him. And for middle class people to lower it to ZERO which would help all of us invested in the stock market and our retirement plans. Obama wants to raise capital gains tax on EVERYONE)
And also....the govt. is SPENDING 10.6 BILLION DOLLARS A DAY.
6.8 MILLION DOLLARS PER MINUTE.
Now put those two thoughts together: The wealthiest will not pay one thin dime more with income tax rates raised because they earn capital gains + the govt. spends more in 29 minutes than Mitt Romney's entire net worth.
And then tell me WHY you would want to raise taxes?
Hell...why are so many people these days sucking up to the federal govt? Jesus! They are all getting rich and funneling money back and you idiots want to give them MORE????
