Taxing the rich is good for the economy

Doesn't everyone do that already?
I'm for tax fairness. If everyone pays the same % sales tax and pays no other tax of any kind whatsoever that would be fair. Rich people would pay more in tax because they would buy more stuff and more expensive stuff.
Apparently, you consider wringing the only money that the poor have out of them is some sort of "fairness". Libertarianism is so ... so foreign as well as mean spirited.
I pay close to 40% of my income as income tax, with HST slapped onto all of our purchases on top of it. The good part of that is that I get to live in a properly functioning society rather than a dysfunctial shytehole like Mogadishu or Detroit.

The poor are chattel. Our cattle. They should be kept reasonably healthy until they are no longer a viable income source, then discarded. In a few years, as the need for new, sustainable food sources increases, what was once an abhorrent idea, eating humans, will become a profitable business venture. Soylent Green is coming and cannot be stopped.
It is the way of business. That which cannot be halted or denied. .
And when ye eat of man - consume his flesh and digest his essence - I shall render a tax. A consumption tax! - imperator illuminatus
Ha, ha! The rich do not tax the rich! They consume the poor. Oh, you wretched humanity! Can ye not see that you are doomed to be my supper? No, perhaps not. In the last few seconds of your existence, as you plunge toward the rotating knives, a flash of recognition will strike you. In those last few precious seconds, you shall finally realize the hopelessness of your situation.
Oh, where is the love?

Many people do not understand the difference between being wealthy and being rich. Nor can they conceive of the life style that goes with being rich.
They also seem to think that "working hard" makes one rich.
Dark love doesn't like the light of day. Was you avatar found at a rifle range before it was used to tine in a tube tv?
Yes, it was.
Conceived in the crossfire of the world's distain for success. Suckled by the embranchment of those who rejected mediocrity.
We'll have complete coverage of the plunge into darkness tonight at 11. Meanwhile, back to our Friday fright night movie, 'The Peasants are Revolting! Yes. Yes, They Certainly Are...', starring Kevin O'Leary, Donald Trump and Skip the Wonder Fish. Toujours dans la couleur!

Set your sites high and you will always have something to strive for instead of being content with the consolation prize.
I don't think so...it can make you wealthy if you have the brain power, work hard and are willing to "do what it takes" depending upon the environment and one's ethical and moral compass.
