"Because it hurts the welfare of this country" No it doesn't. And, you obviously don't care about the welfare of this country. You voted for Obama.

Ted, Because it hurts the welfare of this country... Think about that for a minute. How has the fact that, for example, Warren Buffet being a billionaire affected your individual welfare? Does his wealth represent lost opportunities? Could you think of "better" ways to spend his money than whatever Buffet himself could think of? Maybe on universal health care, better education, or a Tesla in every garage? Think about why you think Buffet's billions SHOULD be your business in the first place. Because if that's the case, then who is to say that your money is anyone else's business other than your own? Tenchusatsu P.S. - Go ahead and substitute the Koch brothers for Warren Buffet, if it makes you feel better.
