I am unconvinced that the "rich" pay 70% of the taxes. That's the first thing.
Second, if it is correct (which I doubt) then what does that say about the relative incomes of the "rest" of the taxpayers in this country to that of the "rich"? Is that not a clue as to one saying to themselves: Hey, maybe this game is a bit loppsided?
If 70% is true, is there even a difference between the "rich" and the govt it funds nearly in full? And if no difference (and there isn't one in reality btw), do you trust these motherfuckers and expect these so-called benefits the "rest" of us indulge in will be around much longer?
And lastly, do you always try to stick up for the people who are dead-set on castrating you? This Tyler Cowen fellow, for example, I respect him about as far as I can ball him. Most especially so when he's set on creating absurd arguments about absurd issues when there are way bigger fish to fry. Sorry, but he's a propagandist, a servant of power, and a total jerkoff no matter how many polled Fortune 2000 company execs says he's the next Johnny Aces.
