It seems a guy who works 40 hours per week and makes $100,000 per year oughtta pay less than a guy who does nothing all year but makes $100,000 on sale of IBM stock. The income tax has already been paid once on the money in the stock, but you want to have them pay it again as capital gains. That's the Socialist way. The right way out is to eliminate the Capital gains tax. And the Corporate income tax.
