re: #322 Buck

All correct, but we are discussing if Dividends are always profit. I have always said they were income. Unearned income, and taxed at a lower rate than earned income in order to be an incentive for investment. Investment (over all) creates jobs and is good for the economy.

This (the bold) is the point that you totally fail to support. Why/how would taxing it at the same rate as any other income create less incentive for investment?
