Tenchusatsu,
re:wealth tax

Don't forget there is already a horrible wealth tax.
Die rich and see what your family is forced to deal with.

Speaking of which, a good argument can be made by drawing out that distinction. If wealth is such a bad thing according to those bemoaning "tax breaks for the rich," why don't they propose a "wealth tax" instead of an income tax?

Unbelievable.......statistic after statistic shows you that the rich keep getting richer and you're worried that that the rich might not get a well deserved [in your opinion] tax break.

Why don't you wake and smell the coffee instead of worrying about a "wealth tax"? The GOP is a southern political party that has national aspirations and is about the wealthy, white guy living in Hillsborough, Bedford Hills, Newport and Kennelworth. This is what the party has been about in the past and inspite of their protests, continues to be going forward.
