When you're rich, you lose the right to complain about anything and be taken seriously.
Really? Wow what country do you live in? Class warfare may work for you -it doesn't work for most Americans who do NOT believe that government owns the fruits of your labor first and doesn't get to decide how much you may be allowed to keep. In THIS country WE THE PEOPLE decide how much we will ALLOW government to have of our own money.
If you think you can hose the wealthy indefinitely and that they should just STFU about it -you might want to pay closer attention to what is happening in Greece. The problem with thinking the rich are a bottomless well who should get stuck with the tab for everything -is that eventually you even run out of their money too. I sure hope you aren't teaching your children that there really is such a thing as a free lunch, that other people owe them, that other people (or worse, government) is responsible for "taking care" of them and that sticking other people with the bill is an American value. Or your children will be the same kind of loser in life you are.
Confiscating 40% of what ANYONE earns and has created for themselves -is IMMORAL. Just because someone created and earned more than you doesn't change the rules about who owns that first. There is no "magic line" beyond which someone else gets to decide how much you will be "allowed" to keep of the fruits of your own labor. Do you believe what you worked for is YOURS first -or government's? Do you really think what you toiled and worked to earn belongs to GOVERNMENT first? This goes to your basic philosophy in life buddy. Who do you work and exist for? Yourself and loved ones first -or government as its slave who owns the fruits of your labor and essentially owns you? Are you a free person or the dispensable and fungible possession and SLAVE of the government, government owned property no different from a government owned toilet seat? Who is your master in life -YOU or government? I bet you are another sad product of our public school system.
So where do you get off insisting that if someone has been more successful than you at what they do and therefore created and earned more for themselves than you did -that the rules are ALL changed for them and that if someone is actually good at what they do in life, they exist as government property who has first claim to anything they produce, create or earn?
The REAL source for your class envy is that you suck at life, have made poor decisions and still want rewarded for it by having the consequences for your decisions in life be handed over to others -specifically those who made other, better, wiser choices in life. The envious ALWAYS want to avoid the consequences they created for themselves and believe it should be the very people who avoided those consequences for themselves who should be saddled with them instead. The rich work an average 70 hour work week. YOU and I don't -by choice. The rich tend to be FAR more ambitious than you and I are -by OUR choice. The rich tend to be far more driven than you and I are -by OUR choice. The rich have chosen to sacrifice a huge chunk of their private lives that you and I have refused to do -by OUR choice. I made the choices I have in life -but I sure as hell don't envy the people who made other choices from my own! You do. So you don't work as hard as the rich -but you WANT what they worked for anyway. Instead of encouraging MORE people to imitate those work habits, you want government to both steal their wealth from them at the same time they demonize them for being better at what they do than you are. You pathetic loser.
Sorry to break the news to you -but being wealthy is only a crime to losers in life like you who want to pretend the rich only got rich because they stole it from people like you. They have as much right to complain about anything they want -just like you do every waking moment of your life. And you might want to think about this -it is possible for those paying all the bills to eventually decide that since they paid for it all, they also own it all and get to make all the rules. Please take a history lesson -and find out what REALLY happens every single time without exception when people like you, who have nothing but contempt, disdain and overriding envy for those who worked harder, longer and more ambitiously than you are running things. It has only massively increased the level of human misery -so probably not a good idea to be a parasite who despises the very victim they NEED to exist. Being a parasite in life has few rewards -demonizing those you suck dry is apparently one of the few but only emphasizes your own loser status in life -both in the eyes of everyone who has the misfortune to know you as well as YOUR OWN!
People like you are actively discouraging people from working hard and being successful -because you DESPISE such people and you do because YOU aren't successful in life and undoubtedly tell yourself it is always the fault of someone else that you aren't. It must the fault of those who are successful that you are such a loser, right? So you encourage others to become the parasites of such people just like you. But honey, only a bottom dwelling moron would actually believe it makes sense to not just be parasites but to then demonize the very hosts you would gladly suck totally dry. Who will you look to parasite off next then?
