Looting?OK, we've parsed this one before but I'll repeat it.Wouldn't you agree that rich people benefit most from the society that everyone has created?
Society and government are two separate things. Why is government entitled to anything because of benefits that society provides?
According to the Lib Doctrine: no one got wealthy on their own. Society made them wealthy. Therefore their money isnt really theirs. It belongs to society. They just happened to be i the right place at the right time. Like winning the lottery.
So government really has a duty to take as much of that wealth as voters want and redistribute it to the people, whose money it is anyway.
Seriously, they actually believe this.
I know all that, but I wanted some lame-assed liberal to respond with some pathetic attempt to justify government looting the earnings of the productive members of society so I could tear him apart.
Our richest taxpayers have the lowest effective tax rate in history
That is why they fear Elizabeth Warren. She stirs up the masses
They pay the vast bulk of taxes. Furthermore, your desire to loot them couldn't be more obvious. Why else would you attempt to villify them with every other sentence?
They control an overwhelming percent of the wealth and income. How is requiring them to pay at rates they paid before supply side policies looting them?
Isn't requiring a family who struggles to pay for food, shelter and healthcare (47%) more taxes looting them?
