[QUOTE="double 07, post: 7925335, member: 637354"] My question to you is......How many of your payroll checks have been backed up or signed by an underprivileged person?.....Does the owner of the company you work for know that you consider him the enemy?........If you say you don't consider him the enemy then why does it sound that way?........."The rich have it so bad"......and a millionaire being taxed at 50% isn't enough......good luck with that outlook on life......Hope you don't find yourself in an unemployment line someday....... When did I say that the RICH shouldn't pay any taxes?...........I am simply stating a fact that is public record.....The top earners in this country pay almost 40% of the taxes that are currently collected!!!!!...........At what % of tax rate per their income are you guys going to be happy with?......Have you ever thought about the consequences of such actions?.....Wealthy people are the employers in this country and most of them are smart enough to figure out how to keep the bottom line intact.........Higher taxes will result in LAYOFFS and hours reduced!!!!!........This is not emotion.....It is a FACT.........Business owners (wealthy) have to keep a PROFIT margin and when something affects that margin they are going to ADJUST something......Usually the adjustment involves a price hike for their service or product offered & unfortunately sometimes it's layoffs and hours cut for it's employees..........What will it take for some of you guys to see this?.........Double digit unemployment? I am NOT wealthy and the reason I defend them is because of jobs in this country...they provide a lot of them including my FULL TIME job.....I don't agree with everything my wealthy employer does but they have provided me with a job that allows me to live comfortably and higher taxes and the crap you guys are slinging hurt them.....You think I want to be in an unemployment line because you think a 50% tax on my employer's income isn't enough?.........From the sound s of it if a 50% tax isn't enough for you then it sounds like the wealthy aren't the GREEDY ones after all..... and about the Socialism thing.......I have NO PROBLEM with social programs........They help.......It's just the ones in this country need a GOOD HOUSE CLEANING done.........Their are several states RIGHT now trying to pass welfare reform and have people getting welfare to start taking drug tests.......Wanna guess whom is fighting that policy?........Welfare in this country has turned into a way of life for some people because it is easier to sit on their ***** and draw unemployment.......There are people turning down minimum wage jobs because they can draw more with unemployment.....Is that fair to me and you?......Welfare is a good thing if it is not abused....It is meant to help people out in hard times not a permanent solution.......I was on Gov assistance about 20 years ago for about a year while my kids were real young and it helped me out a lot but as soon as I could get OFF of it I did because that opens up the opportunity for someone else to use it.......
