55 of the 400 richest are from the investment sector.

What idiot is in charge of giving these people stimulus money and tax breaks ?



That would be the 43rd Administration.

No, He was correct, but they didn't call it stimulus then. They do NOW, but they didn't then.

but don't forget, if we lower taxes for them, then they will repay the favor by hiring us for jobs and such.

"No poor guy ever gave me a job"

"Lower taxes create growth"

we have some of the lowest taxes in the world, the largest deficits, and we still have rampant unemployment and you are right - the rich just keep getting richer and richer.

time to stop it. Re-enact the taxes on the rich (and the middle class too) and get the deficit paid off. We have been on a drunken party for 30 years now and the hangover is coming. I would rather get it over with....

and even after we tax then to 50-70%, they will STILL be the richest people in the country.

In the most general of senses, yes, but that's where it ends. Bush cast stimuls for banks with no req to pay back, Obama's stimulus was aimed more at MC America and he made the banks pay it back or work under the rules of the shareholders; American gov.

Can somebody explain to me why it's in the interest of the average American to even consider extending the tax cuts to the wealthy?



Go start your own company.
Make a payroll.
It'll give you some insight that you clearly don't have.



If you're not making money hand over fist, just barely making it as you infer, it won't affect you, so your claim makes no sense.

You obviously have never run your own successful business. let me clue you in on a few things.
-You work your ass off.
-You work your ass off as many hours each day as is needed to get the job done. No exceptions.
-You work your ass off seven days a week.
-You work your ass off 52 weeks a year.
-After all of that working your ass off, guess what? The fucking government comes and tries to tax away what is left of your ass. :S

Give it a shot sometime. Maybe then you won't be so anxious to raise taxes on successful people.

And if you make 250k with your family, these tax increases won't affect you, that's the issue, 250K AGI is really, really, good money, make

And what of the money OVER 250k? Do you think people work less hard for that money? Care to address the questions i posed to you in this thread or are you just going to keep spewing socialist gutter filler?

Thier taxes will start to increase. Until they hit 7 digits the progressive tax scale won't affectthem that much. I guess those great, flag-waving real Americans would want to reinvest in America anyway, right? I mean after all, America made them under her template of profit, so I'm sure givving back, creating their business to be bigger won't be a problem.

If you cry about 250k AGI then boo-fuckking-hoo to you RW greed platform. Nothing like a very well-off person crying over greed. Taxes are at a 40-year low and you're crying about high taxes; the business owners of the 1950's, 60's would have several things to say to you.
