If anyone can afford to pay taxes, it's the rich. Yes, they earned that money and deserve to keep it. But most people who have losts of money usually invest it so their bank account so it can grow. Therefore, their money is always growing. I understand that some people think that it isn't fair to take more taxes from them than anyone else. But those who have less money, have less to give. And those who have more money, have more to give.
@MiracleBoltz You just made the economic argument against raising taxes. The rich invest their income left over from consumption, be it their bank accounts, standard investments, or capital improvements in their business. Either way this makes capital available to new business and established businesses looking to expand. By taxing them you not only decrease their incentive to produce at a higher marginal rate, but you deplete the level of capital in the economy by giving to the government.
@mikeswanon8989 Undoubtedly, the leading driver of economic growth and development is the level of capital in the economy. So yes, they can better afford it but it is detrimental in the long run. Taxes need to be lower for all, followed by decreased government spending.
CNN is anti non-semite. They are extremely prejudice to anyone that isnt jewish. They never ask anyone else. They pulled this guy out of the closet cause he hasnt had an acting gig in ages.
Ron Paul has a 0% incometax plan for everyone and can still reduce the national deficit by at least 1Trillion dollars just in the 1st year!......that's the best plan any politician has out there.... Pauls plan would benifit EVERYONE!!
@jackuy12345 When the greatest FREE nation on Earth is in debt to the greatest Communist nation on Earth cutting the deficit is an understatement! at this point in the game Ron Pauls plan is the BEST plan on the table..... it's the best plan on the table for Americans in the last 100 years!
I would never take anything Ben Stein has to say seriously, whether or not you agree with him.

If we just cut out all of the bullshit spending, then there would be no need to raise taxes!

Raising taxes on any one & especially the millionaires will not dig us out of the hole.
Producing more, and spending less will.
which means taxes must be lower especially on the businessmen.
what kinda of mindless charlatan would call for more taxes - for stealing from the producers as a way to increase productivity in the nation?
