But I earned this money. I already paid taxes on this money. And I'll be damned if te government tells me what I can do with it upon my death. You have a very healthy sense of entitlement fat_lazy guy. No doubt you've been supporting yourself sincy you came out of the womb. You probably also never used a public highway and funded your very own personal police force and military. I bet you personally paid for private education while growing up also. Yep, no doubt you earned all that money and would have done just as well in the 1960's Soviet Union as you have done in the modern United States. In case you're not getting my point, every U.S. citizen benefits simply by being born in the U.S. The richest have benefitted the most and should pay the most in taxes. If you don't like the U.S. tax system, then renounce your citizenship and move someplace that will better respect your monies. I'm not about to shed a tear for the rich when the second-richest person in the United States pays a lower tax rate than his secretary.
Actually, I'm pretty happy with the way things are run here. It seems like it's all the folks that are disgruntled are the ones that bitch about how expensive everything is, how they want kick out the illegals, tax the upper income more…everything but instead of getting off their own lazy asses and earn more. Imho, those people should renounce their citzenship and get the hell out of here. Your secretary analogy versus the second-richest person…Maybe the secretary should figure out something better for his/her career? Maybe he/she should have taken their education more seriously instead of worshiping Britney Spears….The problem that I see, is that a lot of folks don't give a hoot about education or self improvement. When an education system fails, they blame the system, and not themselves. And when their stuck in a bad job that doesn't pay enough, they blame the system and not themselves. And/or they attempt to live well above their means..I've seen it all. They folks clearly not entitled to anything that I worked hard for.
