This idea that the rich are only rich because of the government is dumb. I know that the liberals want to say that the manufacturer owes the government for the police, firefighters, roads, education of their employees, etc….
But this is totally backwards. Without the wealthy in this country we would have no roads. We would have no police, firefighters, or schools. The fact is Liberal live in a box. Look at Detroit the place is a ghost town. Look at California, Illinois, New York, and other heavy liberal states. They are suffering greatly because most of their business creators have left.
Many of the wealthy have left. Liberals need to wake up and realize we need the wealthy more than the wealthy needs America. There was a time when America was head and feet above the rest of the world but that just is not the case anymore. If we continue to attack the rich, the rich will up and leave. We are competing for the rich to want to be here.
Look we could tax the rich in a country full of the wealthy at 5% and still get more money than we would taxing a nation full of the poor at 100%. Plus the rich are the ones that create the middle class. Without the rich there is no middle class. Which is of course is the reason that when progressives get into power the rich start to leave and the middle class starts to dwindle.
And guess what liberals you can not hire government workers if you have no money coming in through taxes. So believe what you want but in the end reality will always win. How difficult are these facts to understand????

OK, you don't want the rich to pay any more taxes, but we have a 14 trillion dollar debt.
Who, SPECIFICALLY, do you want to pay that off, once you've exempted the Rich from the bill?

DoesAll knowledge has a past, all work requires educated people, all businesses require a means to communicate and transport, all business requires law, the idea that the rich can create wealth is one of the stupidest rationalizations of the contemporary right wing corporate puppet. Drop the rich off on a desert island and they'd look as stupid as Gilligan's Island and less entertaining.
"In 1929 Federal, state, and municipal governments accounted for about 8 percent of all economic activity in the United States. By the 1960s that figure was between 20 and 25 percent, far exceeding that in India, a socialist country. The National Science Foundation reckoned that federal funds were paying for 90 percent of research in aviation and space travel, 65 percent in electrical and electronic devices, 42 percent in Scientific Instruments, 31 percent in machinery, 28 percent in metal alloys, 24 percent in automobiles, and 20 percent in chemicals."

This idea that the rich are only rich because of the government is dumb.
Warren rejects the concept that it is possible for Americans to become wealthy in isolation.
"You built a factory out there? Good for you," she says. "But I want to be clear: you moved your goods to market on the roads the rest of us paid for; you hired workers the rest of us paid to educate; you were safe in your factory because of police forces and fire forces that the rest of us paid for. You didn't have to worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything at your factory, and hire someone to protect against this, because of the work the rest of us did."
She continues: "Now look, you built a factory and it turned into something terrific, or a great idea? God bless. Keep a big hunk of it. But part of the underlying social contract is you take a hunk of that and pay forward for the next kid who comes along."

Fool.
Kansas is tearing up their roads and replacing them with gravel.
Classes are growing because teachers are being let go.
Firemen are being let go.
Police are being let go.
You are so fucking stupid, you don't know anything.
Rich people buy Republican politicians, the best money can buy. To change the laws and remove regulations to do what used to be illegal and is now legal. Thanks GOP.
Who is saying this? The comment by Warren was this:
Elizabeth Warren: "There is nobody in this country who got rich on his own" - Political Hotsheet - CBS News

But how did we build roads and schools with out the rich paying taxes in the beginning? How did the police and firemen get hired without the money from the wealthy? To pretend this all just magically happened then the rich suddenly appeared because of these things appearing is dumb.
The rich are rich because they control government and wall street. They make the rules and slant the game in their favor. Don't you ever wonder why only rich people can afford to run for office?
Unfortunately for them they have not been able to completely rig the system and some people can become rich if they happen to work very hard and be in the right place at the right time with the planets all lining up for them. After all of that they will only move up the ladder so far, because the ultra rich have seen to it that they can only go so far.
We are heading for disaster if we don't fix the game, and it could be violent all depending on how tight the rich want to hold onto their power over every aspect of our lives.
We all paid taxes. The problem, IMHO, is the loopholes which allow people richer than I to pay less taxes than I do. I'm in the 28% bracket. Although I'd like to see my taxes reduced, what I'd like better is 1) getting more bang for my buck and 2) that those richer than I pay at least as much as I do.
A lot of them pay way more than you do. It depends if they have a way to participate with the crony capitalism.
Then why didnt these godlike CEOs chose some other country to make their trillions in?
Heres a clue why.
The American infrastructure.
Now why didnt they just move to some other nation with such a great infrastructure?
Oh there wasnt one?
So now that our infrastructure has been ignored for a decade is is begining to crumble they are moving their shit over seas while they continued to live here.
In places like China they are not asked to pay to maintain the infrastructure because China gives then breaks to move there.
When they have used up chinas infrastructure they will move elsewhere.
They could not have built the companies they built without the American infrastructure.
Lie all you want about it , it wont change the real facts.
Where do you live exactly that the infrastructure is crumbling? I have been around the world and we still have better roads, school buildings, etc... The problem is spending is not the answer for every single problem. In fact government spending most time is the problem. Because schools have been made to seem free is why no one cares about school. If parents had to pay for the children to go to school, then parents would care about what their kid is doing in school. When you make something seem free(it really isn't) people start to not care.

WHERE ARE THE FUCKING JOBS ????????
