I cannot understand why so many think that the rich should pay low taxes. The loopholes, offshore tax havens, etc mean that many of them don't pay much or any taxes. You are right on in your remarks. The rich aren't job creators. Having money doesn't mean you invest it in American jobs. And our economy is driven by middle class spending. Many in the middle class in the past were union workers. The only thing destroying unions does is put more money in the hands of the few. You said it better than I can.tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02038980686084187677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567168789336947243.post-79229163169362750642012-07-26T10:19:30.412-04:002012-07-26T10:19:30.412-04:00Once again the stalker doesn't respond to the ...Once again the stalker doesn't respond to the point but tries to misdirect. It was under Reagan's watch and the changes he and his administration brought to our economic situation that the gap between the wealthy and the rest of us began to expand. Part of that was due to his cut in taxes for the richest among us and part was due to his weakening of unions beginning with the air controllers union. We began to become a "third world" country in terms of income disparity and lack of economic opportunity under Reagan's policies. His was the most rightwing administration we had had to that time. But compared to Bush/Cheney or where Republicans are today, even Reagan would be considered too far to the left!Lallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05310472614196384595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4567168789336947243.post-55708507607762575812012-07-26T10:04:48.587-04:002012-07-26T10:04:48.587-04:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.JImhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13795849285955713444noreply@blogger.com
