"Do I detect jealousy here? Have you ever thought of getting off your can and WORKING? Because of ingenuity and opportunity, this country STILL offers the best chance to rise from nothing to rich. If you're too d*** lazy to take advantage of it, that's YOUR problem." Dude, you know not to whom you talk. So I would stop while you're a head. No one is impressed with the right's different forms of intimidation including yours. In addition to being strawmen, you are paper tigers when it comes to fighting. Bullying is your best sport and when that doesn't work, you're screwed! And when you have no answer, you change the subject, don't you? "We're 3rd in taxation of the top 30% in income. Gee, that seems to me like quite an attempt to "soak" the rich". I guess you would be happy unless we took every penny they made, though, would you?" That's personal income taxation......there are several forms of taxation. When you take them altogether, then you are able to determine whether a nation state heavily taxes its rich. Trust me when I tell you, the US is a lightweight when it comes to taxing its rich.......in fact, that is part of the reason the rich get richer. I wait with bated breath for you to actually produce some FACT instead of the baseless claim you, AS, and other leftists specialize in. PUT UP OR SHUT UP! "Anything that directly contradicts your bias is a "strawman", right?" No. When you present a strawman in lieu of a real answer, I will call you on it. Let me just point out......strawmen are favorite responses by those from the right.......reason being: you don't have any answers. Its rather pathetic but that's the truth. Well, honey, let's see some answers. You COULD have saved all your useless hot air in your post and just produced them.
