[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People who are “enraged” by this: I hope you remember your rage at the voting booth when you consider the tax policies that make this so advantageous.[/quote]

Yep yep yep. [/quote]

Pathetic you think taking more money from these people would actually financially benefit you and the likes.

Rich people already pay MOST of the taxes in this country.  [/quote]

How could they not?  They make most of the money and then they hoard it and then they pass on their hoard to their children.[/quote]

So 100 people go out to dinner.  Everyone decides where to go and what to eat with the majority deciding, so everyone has an equal share in deciding what's eaten how nice the restaurant is, etc.

The bill comes and it's $1,000

and the woman at the end of the table pays 396 dollars because everyone voted and that is the amount they agreed was 'fair'.   The 9 people next to her pay an additional 480 dollars so the 10 of them have paid roughly 880 dollars.

The other 90 people cover the rest.  47 of those people paid nothing - ate for free

The 10 at the end of the table didn't eat more yet most of the 90, and even some of the 9, complain that the woman at the end didn't pay enough just because 'she has the means and she could have'.

According to this thread they are also upset by the fact that she is doing everything she can, within the boundaries of the system, to save money for her children with her extra money, rather than increasing her share of the dinner bill.

According to many other DCUM threads the group also stiffed the waiter because 'that's their job and they don't deserve a tip' and most of the conversation at dinner revolved around people bragging about how old their car is and the fact that realtors are just a big scam.   [/quote]

TL DR trying too hard

Another sniveling worker bee trying to justify the all encompassing greed of the rich in the hopes that by some magic he may join their ranks.[/quote]
