“I disagree with some of his opinions, but I strongly agree that the super rich need to pay more of their share. They hire the best lawyers and financial advisers who are experts in hiding their wealth, defraying taxes incurred, stashing assets in offshore banks, incorporating outside the US in tax shelters, etc. Bear Sterns gave millions to Obama!”

What taxes do you think they don't pay? Or are you totally confusing wealth with income? Corporations with individuals? If I had a billion dollars, do you think I would have a 9-5 job? Take out pre tax dollars for health care when I could buy a hospital?

Why should they take huge portions of their wealth to pay for another man's socialism? Are you upset the wealthy aren't putting more in the kitty for Soros and Obama to restructure the health care system? Are you upset they aren't helping pay for more stimulus where a trillion dollars can be flushed down the toilet?

No, your position is either completely ill defined, or you have gulped the redistribution Kool Aid. That is a fully thoughtful analysis.

(This is the part where a real adult realizes they have stepped in it and admit it. You can do it. It builds character.)
