Me too! I understand the argument that to attract investment, you want low taxes on them.

But, in the interest of egalitarianism and fairness, all forms of income should be taxed the same. The bricklayer that gets by on the sweat of his brow shouldn't be taxed at a higher rate than the portly investor that buys and sells.

Somehow, the working (R)'s have been convinced he should, even though it's against their economic interest.
