[quote=Turtle69]What ever happened to the idea that a person is entitled to keep the money they earn and that they are responsible for meeting their own needs? Wishing to increase taxation on the rich is nothing more than class envy. The fair thing would be to establish a flat tax and then live within our means. Of course, people would rather have benefits paid for by the hard work done by others than to act out of fairness.

Great! Then you’ll agree that the least productive members of our society who currently have the highest incomes, (because they direct money flows — bankers/financial employees and executive managers), should stop taking all the money that belongs to the **productive workers** (like auto manufacturers, farm workers, nurses, construction workers, etc.) right?
