re: "I fear if we elect more Republicans will get BOTH lower taxes for the rich..."

I think you spend WAY too much time worrying about what other people have that you haven't.

Rich people... richer than YOU, I mean... are always going to have stuff you don't have. Get over it. Rich[er] people are also paying more money than you every year to support you and the infrastructure you so love.

You condemn rich people for trying to keep what they earned, but absolve yourself for trying to take what they earned.

That's really messed up.

The end result of your way of thinking is that rich people will quit pushing to produce the things people need and that made them rich. Then everyone suffers -- which is what you want, I guess, since the world will finally be "fair."

But haven't you been listening, Republicans want to totally eliminate taxes on dividends and capital gains since THEY claim that it's THIS 'income' which actually promotes job growth. So what will it be, tax income or tax dividends/capital gains. I fear if we elect more Republicans we'll get BOTH lower taxes for the rich and NO TAXES at all on dividends/capital gains as well as zero corporate taxes. Even if you manage to cut spending, how are we going to pay for what the Republicans will be wanting money for, like a bigger military with more and fancier 'toys'?
