yes we SHOULD do something about the 99:1 and that includes higher taxes for the rich and eventually reshaping capitalismI agree, but they shouldn't be taxed more either. We want them to buy that jet, since the people who worked to make the jet need to get paid...so they can pay the shool that teaches their children, the taxi they took from the bar where they spent all that cash, the blonde they tipped real big that night, the hotel they slept in so they wouldn't go home to the wife drunk, down to the breakfast they had later that next morning, the hotdog they bought at lunch, then the dinner they took their wife too for not coming home last night, the brunette their wife got mad at because they tipped her too much...
It's called trickle down, and that's just one person...they're affecting all those people they came in contact with along the way, who were in turn able to pay for things they wanted. Which helped those people pay for what they wanted...which...okay, you get the point. xd
if taxes are paid the government gets more to spend and last i checked the governments spend the most money for the good of ALL not just the 1% ... this also is called trickle down
