Yeah, so it's very important that we take Bill Gates' $50 Billion fortune at the lowest rates possible, because we want to keep the dream alive? You are a moron with no ability to make worth goals practical.

Tax the rich more, and as a group, they will be outraged to be sure, but it won't affect their personal consumption or investment practices one whit. Tax the crap out of the middle class and you directly destroy consumption and make it impossible for the middle class to save anything for retirement, because the incremental amount they have to save is small to begin with.

You are clueless and what is sad is that you are probably part of the upwardly mobile middle class that Bush is destroying. If you are part of the rich, then I can completely understand why you are making your arguments, but it is most certainly out of greed, not out of doing what is right for this country.
