The converse is true as well if we lower taxes, the rich will use the money to build their business so they can make more money. They will increase labor to help them do it. We need rich people. Stop the hate.
Well, I must agree with you, and it is refreshing to hear a Democrat say this.
My problem with "conservative Democrat" which you profess to be, is that seeing the "rich" as the enemy is a bedrock, non-negotiable tenet of your party's belief structure. It seems to me that their quest for equality in practice always requires that employers and investors be targeted to purchase votes. So (fiscal) conservative and Democrat seems to constantly be at odds, and in my view, permanently irreconcilable.
Can you help me come to terms with this?
