In fact all sorts of people ACTUALLY THINK rates should be higher on those that can afford it!! No, Peter... they aren't just pretending!! LOL

For someone whom claims they are exempt from mainstreams media influences, this one keeps regurgitating the left-wing media chants like they work for MSNBC. In reality, What we have had is a VERY FEW "Ultra Rich" people saying that they believe they should pay higher taxes. These VERY FEW (like Buffett and Gates) make a great deal of their income from Dividends that are subject to Long Term Capital Gains Rates instead of rates on"Earned Income".

Left-Wing media and their puppets have perverted these "Statements by the very few Ultra Rich" into a continued stream of statements from the left-wing media claiming that "LOTS OF RICH PEOPLE ACTUALLY THINK THEY SHOULD PAY HIGHER TAXES." But when you ask them for a list of the "lots of people".. They can actually produce very few which are typically Billionaires. Perhaps if Gates and Buffett were being taxed at the "Earned Income Rate", then they would have a different view?

Of course "All sorts of people ACTUALLY THINK rates should be higher on those that can afford it. But, a large portion of those that ACTUALLY THINK rates should be higher on those that can afford it, believe they do not fall into the category of being able to afford it themselves.

Heck, even this LLCF character turned out t be a "bean counter" claiming that it would be just "too expensive" in accounting fees to pay higher taxes.

But you can keep dreaming that everyone who is for higher taxes are all hypocrites

Everyone who is for higher taxes are not hypocrites, just those that believe that "they shouldn't be subject to pay more, or do not act on their wishes to pay a higher tax rate due to "accounting fees".

And so it goes,
