How many rich people would there be without government regulating drinking water, quality roads, safe medicine?

Why should they pay 15% capital gains tax while everyone else pays 28% income tax?

Let me break it down for you guys. Rich people paying less taxes during economic recession -> more social services that need to be cut -> less opportunity for others to overcome debt -> less overall opportunity for others to become rich = monopolizing the system = anti-free market = anti-capitalism.

The 15% capital gains tax has been quite fine with the Dow increasing by 6 trillion over the last few years, but go ahead...

Tank my 401K by penalizing investment even more.

That will teach us.

Because conservatives love misery. They will carry the water for the rich even if it means they have to sell their souls to do it.

Stupid!
