Only small slivers of the group of Americans surveyed for a Washington Post/ABC News poll released Wednesday said they support cuts to Medicare and Medicaid — 21 percent and 30 percent, respectively — and cuts to defense spending get the support of 42 percent of those surveyed. Seventy-eight percent of Americans are opposed to Medicare cuts, while 69 percent are opposed to Medicaid cuts.
The potential solution to the debt crisis that gets the strongest support is raising taxes on Americans who make $250,000 or more annually, an idea that Obama campaigned on in 2008, backed away from last year to make a legislative deal with Republicans but has returned to as he’s begun discussing his vision for long-term fiscal responsibility. Of those surveyed, 72 percent said they support tax increases on people with incomes of more than $250,000, including 54 percent who strongly support them. Twenty-seven percent are opposed, including 17 percent strongly.

Democrats aren't saying that the rich are terrible people. Nice hyperbole. They're saying that the rich should contribute more to the country that gave them the opportunities that enabled them to get so rich. Most Americans agree.

So basically people are saying that they don't want things that affect them taken away, but they are perfectly fine with making someone else pay more for it.
Words like "fair share", "shared sacrifice" and "just a bit more" are all buzzwords for "I want someone else to pay for my crap."
5k-10k years of civilization are we are still stuck on GIMME GIMME GIMME.

Of course I would expect a conservative to interpret the country's sentiments that way. Your only problem is that even most Republicans want the rich to pay more. How much longer can the GOP get away with favoring the rich over the poor when a majority of Americans, including Republicans, want the rich to pay more? How much longer do you think their own base (never mind independents) will continue to support their pro-rich, pro-big-business policies?

Warren Buffet is not a real American?
I thought he was the poster child for the wealthy investors and an example of free enterprise that the neo-cons hold in high esteem....hummm...
yet the "rich" who are just people themselves, are corrupt, wasteful and don't create anything? I mean government officials have control of more money than any group of "rich" people. I just want to gain a perspective on why one group is great and the other so terrible?
