>It absolutely amazes me that people who CLAIM to be champions of the free market understand NOTHING about it. The understanding is ZERO or NOTHING about it.
It's all a lie cooked up by clever people at think-tanks.
TAX THE RICH!!!!!

The problem is the rich have tax shelters and other ways of hiding money. I'm in the top tax bracket, and I assure you that if my taxes are raised, I'll find some way to shelter my income. Of course, I'm self-employed, so it's easier for me to shelter than a W-2 employee.

On top of that, there aren't enough rich people to tax in order to raise revenues that much even if you could get them to pay. Kerry will end up raising taxes on the middle class if he wants to generate revenues, just like Clinton did.
