If the rich are taxed too much guess who they get rid of to pay the tax and stay rich..........YOU. And if they dont buy stuff that rich peoople buy, who gets laid off.........YOU.
Dude, they get their money in the first place from the labours of their serfs. What do you think, the money comes out their ass and they employ people purely out of the goodness of their hearts?
I can just imagine it now - I get my 1 mil./year from 50 peons labouring in my, oh lets say convenience stores. Now, I have to pay 50% on the part above 200K instead of 30%. Ok, lets close stores, fire lots of people, and bring my income down to 200K. Yes, I really benefit from that. Do you people ever think about whether your right-wing talking points make any actual sense?
I'll cut my expenses (peon surfs) just enough to make up the difference in income, then make the others work harder, not close stores to bring my income down.
Makes no sense.
Makes perfect sense. There isn't exactly a labor shortage. Any workers who aren't performing up to par will and should get cut, being replaced by those who have better resumes and are more beneficial to the company. I don't think any of you were raised in households with people who actually had to operate a business, judging by your horribly misinformed posts.
