Obama has his eyes on high income earners, not the true wealthy. The truly wealthy like Buffett already have theirs and work to keep income taxed and make sure it is damed near impossible to for those who work for a living to achieve true wealth. They can afford to be liberal. If the Fairtax were implemented, then the really wealthy would pay through this consumption tax.
Warren, Oprah, Soros;
Go to hell. Thanks.
Sincerely,
Me too
Let’s not forget:
credit cards
student loans
car loans
gas money
unemployment
Thank you for expressing this fundamental truth so well. :)
Yeah, I could use some of that. Maybe we should all start chanting “Where’s my pie!”
Buffet is a complete hypocrite, to avoid estate taxes he is leaving his money to a foundation.
His real effective mariginal tax rate is 18% because he has a lot of his personal wealth in bonds.
But he wants the rest of us to pay taxes and give our estates to the IRS because it’s the right thing to do.
High taxes don’t harm the rich; they serve, instead, to keep others from getting rich.
