Fuck you and your quest for equality.
The only thing you fucking Progressives want to insure is that everyone is equally miserable, like North Korea at night.
Once again, go fuck yourself. Nov 2012 can't come soon enough.
We tried it your way and the facts are in: Socialism sucks Alaskan Moose cock
Raising taxes on the rich is not socialism.
And fuck you too, Frank. You are as dumb as a box of rocks.
If you taxed the dreaded rich at 100% you'd net about $980,000,000,000... one time 'cause they'd then stop producing.
Who's dumb as a box of rocks?
THE 5 percent of Americans with the highest incomes now account for 37 percent of all consumer purchases, according to the latest research from Moodys Analytics. That should come as no surprise. Our society has become more and more unequal.
When so much income goes to the top, the middle class doesnt have enough purchasing power to keep the economy going without sinking ever more deeply into debt which, as weve seen, ends badly. An economy so dependent on the spending of a few is also prone to great booms and busts. The rich splurge and speculate when their savings are doing well. But when the values of their assets tumble, they pull back. That can lead to wild gyrations. Sound familiar?
The economy wont really bounce back until Americas surge toward inequality is reversed. Even if by some miracle President Obama gets support for a second big stimulus while Ben S. Bernankes Fed keeps interest rates near zero, neither will do the trick without a middle class capable of spending. Pump-priming works only when a well contains enough water.
Look back over the last hundred years and youll see the pattern. During periods when the very rich took home a much smaller proportion of total income as in the Great Prosperity between 1947 and 1977 the nation as a whole grew faster and median wages surged. We created a virtuous cycle in which an ever growing middle class had the ability to consume more goods and services, which created more and better jobs, thereby stoking demand. The rising tide did in fact lift all boats.
During periods when the very rich took home a larger proportion as between 1918 and 1933, and in the Great Regression from 1981 to the present day growth slowed, median wages stagnated and we suffered giant downturns. Its no mere coincidence that over the last century the top earners share of the nations total income peaked in 1928 and 2007 the two years just preceding the biggest downturns.

Again, how does raising taxes on the rich help me personally?

Your policies fail every time they're implemented.
Every single time.
We need to eliminate the individual income tax which was the first shot fired in the Progressive War on American Society

You are.
Which country has the least income inequality in the world?
Sweden.
Which Western country has the fastest growing economy?
Sweden.

Then move to fucking Sweden and leave us the fuck alone... anyhoo Einstein, that little tidbit doesn't prove causation.
Addressing class warfare pimps only lends their arguments of avarice and covetousness validity.The OP is correct, I don't see anyone refuting the facts.
This trend will continue. Look, we have wages about where they were in constant 1982 Real Dollars and it's been an over 30 year trend. And at the same time, Corporate America which dictates the marketable wage, is enjoying great profits, while holding down wages. Now, the trend includes not only holding wages but also making great profits while minimizing their workforce. But they are hiring overseas where labor is cheaper.
Why would this tend not continue? What will happen to the Middle Class?

We've had going on 100 years of a central bank issuing a worthless currency, the income tax, nearly 70 years of New Deal socialism, more than 45 years of Great Society socialism, untold domestic handout and "investment" programs...Yet things keep getting worse.
And all the the class warfare pimps can tell us is that it's all the fault of the evil rich people.
Fuck Robert Reich.

Fuck Robert Reich.
It is addressing the issue because the "solution" to the situation -as posited by pious ivory tower dwelling little shits like Reich anyways- is doing even more of what has failed, for decades and decades, to work....More expropriation, more redistribution, more taxation, more regulation, more shifting of the blame, more whining and crying about how all the eeeeeevil rich people are hogging up all the money.
More total bullshit from total bullshitters.
Lowering taxes for the rich just makes the rich richer.
Where?...When?The GOP drew first blood in their all out assault against the working poor...
Platitudes and hyperbole.Clearly a healthy Capitalistic economy needs a healthy middle class of consumers. The growing inequality between classes is a return to the days of serfs and lords and the lords want us to be happy with the scrapes that trickledown economics leaves us, but we’re still waiting on those scraps and beginning to tire of waiting.
We've been trying that for several decades now, and all the left can do is point to the failure of those programs as evidence that they need to be "reformed" (yet again) and/or even more are needed.All we really need to do is change the policies that protect the wealthy and rewrite them to protect the middle class and working poor.
Oh, so the answer is to make the marketplace even less free...How'd I miss the obvious answer?It's not like we live in a free market economy now, we have rules in place they just protect the wrong people.
It reduces the deficit.
How does reducing the deficit, without lowering my taxes help me, and how does it address then inequality stated in the original post?
Also, the increased revenue NEVER goes to reducing the deficit, someone just comes up with another program that gets funded, and the debt keeps rolling.
That is total bullshit.
Clinton raised taxes on the rich and balanced the budget.
