It is a very popular, however, almost entirely incorrect belief among conservatives that the rich work harder for what they have than the poor. This seems to be largely because conservatives like to think that our current capitalistic system is both fair and impartial, and rewards work.[/quote]
Did you even read the example I’ve made of some couple who does work 2X harder than most and are being considered as rich?
I do agree that CEO these days are getting paid way more than their employee and they also get paid to fail as well. That’s not right. But the point at hand is increasing tax on those who you consider as rich (those making >$250k). I can say with certainty those who work 2x as hard as you and I deserve every $ they make just as you and I do. Try working 6 12 hours shift as a RN and tell me if that’s not hard work.
