re: #447 simoom

If you consider Regan-level taxation of the wealthy soaking, well, with our country having the greatest disparity of wealth in the industrialized world, they can afford a little soaking. In fact, that disparity is currently at an all time high, measured in a number of ways. One example is the top .01% of earners currently receiving over 6% of all wages.

we have an unsustainable situation….too few people supporting the rest of the citizenry…toss in these unreal budget requests and it won’t really matter who’s got what, will it….we need to get people back to work, pare down govt demands, get people educated and useful or we are gonna be fucked…disparity is the least of our problems
