I say **** that. Most Democrats believe in giving the poorer people money.

I feel America is a land of equal opportunity. It's up to the individual, not the government, to support those who cannot support themselves. There are plenty of options as is in the United States. And yes... I assume this topic is about the United States, not Canada.
Tax percentages should be equal. There shouldn't be any benefits or disadvantages to be super rich. However, I feel that if you work hard for your money ... *takes a break to think of the song* ... then you deserve every penny of it. Then, it's up to you - the individual - to spend it correctly.
My beliefs are pretty idealistic... because I know there are plenty of heartless folk with billions that just want to stockpile the money without having a use for it. But, people like that can be "taken care of".
Yes, vote Rndm_P for president
