re: #865 Big Steve
However, clearly as an election strategy and as a revenue source the President has indicated that those making more that $250k per year need to pay a higher percentage in taxes than they currently do. This is a bald fact. I don’t hate him for that I just simply disagree that this will be successful and it does have a personal impact on me.
It has worked in the past, and the report suppressed by the GOP showed that breaks in the top tax rate have had no positive effect on the economy.
Do you think that the continued increase in disparity between the wealthy and the poor is a problem we need to address?
