lol Karl Rove is one of the biggest bullshitters.

It depends on who you're taxing. Rove yet again fails to elaborate on this. The statistics he's giving are for people in the "top bracket" of wealth, not people that are now struggling. The increased taxes (actually reinstated taxes from before Bush's cuts) would be for people that already make over 200 or 250 thousand dollars a year. Those cuts meant more cash in wealthy people's pockets. Whether they intend to or not, by not paying taxes they are contributing to major problems.

that's an interesting point. To continue the analogy, while goaltending takes place in the NBA, I think it is a rarity. Present day, (not 20 years ago) I really don't think there are are very many people trying to "keep the lower class down". Even if there are, I don't think high taxes do anything to help the situation.

MJ could prevent other players from scoring some baskets because he played against them and actually played defense too. When businesses or their owners/employees play aggressive defense it's called monopoly. These "rich" might be the best at their game, but when they use these tactics to block shots and make it impossible for anyone else to be the best at the game they can be, it's unethical. Do you think George Mikan should have been free to continue what he was doing regarding goaltending?

respectfully I don't really think that the disparity between the rich and the poor necassarily proves that anything is unfair.
Micheal Jordan scores WAY more baskets than you or I ever could..WAY more..does that mean that the game of basketball is unfair? Or has he simply much more talented and worked much much harder to acquire his basketabll skills? At both ends of the spectrum 'luck' plays a role, but most people who are weatlhy/poor earn what they earn due to their own actions/inaction.

Thank you Rove, for giving the president advice that you thaught were best for America and not advice that you thaught would keep the GOP in power.
You are a true american patriot.

This is hilarious. Only people who can't do math would think that McCain would lower taxes on anyone who makes less than $250k. Millionaires on Fox arguing for their own tax cut. Total B.S.

Fair arguement but:
The rich are VERY rich, beyond the dreams of the average person. Its very easy to sell "fairness" to people who suck at math and don't appreciate the magnitude of the disparity. Also, there's this ridiculous part of the Amercian mind: They will be rich one day. People don't want to tax the rich, because they want to BE rich, and believe its only a matter of getting lucky.
The top 1% hold about 40% of all the wealth
the top 20% holds just over 90% " "
Reasonable?

Only us peasants have to sacrifice and pay taxes, you see. And we are getting good and fed
up with it!
During WWII we had two great leaders - FDR and
briefly Harry Truman - who were for the people,
not what old Harry later called "the gluttons of
privilege."

Well, for the GOP modus operandi, just listen to
"Only A Pawn In Their Game", by the incomparable
Bob Dylan.
Anyone that watches fox news for information has grown accustom to listening to bigots, racist, and war criminals to spoon feed them thier ideas. IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH!
