"The percentage of wealthy people that run hedge funds is very small"

So what.....they don't pay taxes at same rate you or I do..... And I still don't know what socially redeeming value a hedge fund has....what is their product? How do they create jobs?

" "pulling down the rich doesn't help the poor" still holds."

To use a hackneyed phrase, to help level the playing field. But then why have them pay taxes at all..?? Poor babies.....
