TOP 2%
So, if I am doing the math correctly, seeing how so many of you despise the top 2% earners in America. Given that there are some 300 million people in the USA, then 2% equals some 6 million of the wealthiest folks. Now, WHY would ANYONE suggest that these people should pay ANY MORE in taxes or otherwise, to support those whom are, shall I say, "less motivated, or capable of succeeding"?Furthermore, where do you draw the line. PLEASE WEIGH IN AS THIS IS AN IMPORTANT AND CENTRAL DEBATE.
In otherwise, should the top 2%, 5%, 10%, or more, bend over backwards for the betterment of the "middle class" (the very same people who will currently get ALL of the "shovel ready projects", etc.)? If so/not, WHY, WHY, WHY!!!
Trolls need not apply.
