It depends how you definite weath. So one who makes $100K, $200K, $500K etc. It is easy to blame the wealthy for all of societies problems. But without the wealthy starting companies there would be no jobs for the rest of us.
whoa there ghook. I'm not blaming the rich for being rich. In fact, being comparatively well off myself, I'm not blaming the rich for anything. I'm just saying, we should take the taxes from the people we can take the most from and cause the least amount of stress.

However, if you squeeze the top and the corporations, guess what happens, they jump ship! That is what has been happening in America.
This is a much better argument then previous ones.

The realistic argument, the more you tax them, the less compelled they are to stay.

However, I'm not sure this has happened enough to cause a major problem. Could you post some stats from an unbias source so I can study this farther?


Don't forget this is all in good fun!
