<<The rich are not in the majority in this country. They are lucky that they have it so easy. They [the rich] would be smart to not complain so much. In fact, Buffet, Soros and Gates get it; what's wrong with the rest of you? Slow learners?>> there's that "us" and "them" mentality again. You also keep mentioning "ultra rich" people,but refuse to define who you really mean when you're talking about the "rich" in general. After all, you want those folks to give back the tax cuts. You won't define it, because your perception of "rich" reaches right down into the middle class. I ask about your background, since I've yet to see you express a willingness to pay more taxes yourself. That suggests you're either one of the 30 million filers who pay nothing, or in a very low bracket, which would be unaffected. As for me coming onto this thread angry, I merely responded to AS hyperbole, and somehow drew you as a contender. If you want to see angry, you ought to read your own posts. You're bubbling with it. Another reason I asked about your background. It's showing through.
