Why do Liberals always want to look into everyone pocket?
Why cant they mind their own fucking business?
Why do you "New Conservatives" always want to control people's personal lives? Why can you just mind YOUR own fucking business?

Egerman is part of a gang of self-described Patriotic Millionaires who wish the federal government would help itself to more of their money to address its big budget deficits. Nearly 200 millionaires have signed a letter asking congressional Republicans to consider healing budget gaps with increased revenue -- in particular, higher taxes on millionaires -- instead of just reduced spending.
'Patriotic Millionaires' Describe What They've Done With Their Bush Tax Cuts: 'I Built A Dance Floor In My House'
The job creators are being hurt if tax cuts are not being given to the rich, LMAO, get fucking real rightwingers.
Unfortunately too many American Citizens today have been Dumbed-Down by an awful Public School System. They just don't have any idea of the principles our Nation was founded upon. We booted the British Monarchy for many of the same things the Socialists/Progressives are forcing on Citizens today. Government domination & oppression is not where we want to go. The Class Warfare Game is very misguided and wrong. Lets give Freedom & Liberty a chance.
As to the rest of you viewing this thread>? STAY AWAY...we have a STATIST whom PRETENDS to be a Soldier Defending LIBERTY...
What did Arianna do with the money AOL gave her?

I'll take this article with a grain of salt. However, there is some truth in it. While the tax cuts, especially for the wealthy, may have added some jobs, the idea that they create millions of new jobs is off base. The bottom line is that the truly wealthy do not want to see all government programs cut for a number of reasons. One is that much of the money poured into those programs eventually gets back to them and it helps create wealth. Secondly, government spending helps bring things to society that benefits everyone. Those who are very wealthy usually get more from those benefits than everyone else, but regardless, they don't want to see such huge disparities within our society. Why do I say this? Because eventually it will have a negative impact on everyone including them.
As things stand now, we have a major crisis, and the answer is not just to cut spending. Cutting as much as would be necessary to get our budget balanced would literally destroy our economy, taking with it a very large portion of the wealthy's assets. If the stock market crashes, many of these wealthy will lose the vast majority of what they have worked for. This is why you see articles like this, and it's the reason people like Bill Gates and Warren Buffet have stated that we must raise taxes on the wealthy. That does not mean we need to soak the wealthy for everything they have. That is not the point. The point is to pay for necessary programs so that we don't lose our middle class to poverty. Because if that happens, the rich won't remain rich.
Conservatives think that moderates and liberals just want to get back at the rich and steal their money, but that is not what this is about. It's about keeping our society one where most people actually do have an opportunity to prosper while making your everyday Joe capable of living a decent life. Because when average Joe lives a decent life, he's contributing to the success of those who really want to make it. Without him, nobody gets rich.
Clearly, he built that dance floor all by himself. He certainly did not employ builders to do it, no money was spent on materials. He kept every penny.
More bullshit hysteria from the HuffPuff. Drama Queens. Gotta love 'em.
what is this bullshit idea that those who don't share their money at some approved rate are not patriotic?
Pelosi was worth at least $35.2 million in the 2010 calendar year, according to a financial disclosure report released Wednesday. She reported a minimum of $43.4 million in assets and about $8.2 million in liabilities. For 2009, Pelosi reported a minimum net worth of $21.7 million. Reports disclosing the assets and liabilities of lawmakers for the 2010 calendar year were released Wednesday. The forms can give a good estimate of lawmaker wealth, though they show ranges, and not precise values for stocks, pension plans, vacation homes and other assets.
Like Pelosi, other congressional leaders saw their wealth climb last year as the economy struggled to pull out of a recession while the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained more than 1,100 points. Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) remained a multimillionaire, with a minimum net worth close to $2.1 million and zero liabilities in 2010. His 2009 minimum net worth was more than $1.8 million. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) reported at least $3.4 million in wealth, an almost 10 percent rise over the prior year. Reid had a minimum net worth of close to $3.1 million in 2009.
Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) reported a minimum net worth of $9.8 million and remains one of the wealthiest lawmakers on Capitol Hill, according to his disclosure form. His minimum net worth grew close to 29 percent from a minimum of $7.6 million in 2009. Rep. Darrell Issas (R-Calif.) political clout grew with the chairmanship of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee. Issa is also one of the wealthiest people on Capitol Hill, and his disclosure report showed a minimum net worth of $220.4 million, more than 37 percent higher than in 2009. Issa, the founder of car security system maker Directed Electronics, reported a minimum net worth of $160.1 million the previous year.
Pelosi saw her wealth rise due to some smart stock picks and real estate investments made by her husband, Paul. Apple stock owned by Paul Pelosi rose from at least $500,000 in 2009 to $1 million in 2010. The minority leaders husband also took a bigger stake in Matthews International Capital Management, worth at least $5 million last year, compared to $1 million in 2009. Paul Pelosis investment in some undeveloped residential real estate in Sacramento, Calif., jumped to at least $5 million in value. Paul Pelosi also has sizable assets in the United Football League, including $1 million in a partnership interest in a Jacksonville, Fla., franchise and $5 million in a partnership interest for the Sacramento Lions.
