The problem with removing the tax cuts currenlty enjoyed by the wealthier of us is that they will not lose their money, they will simply raise the price of whatever it is they sell to the rest of us to compensate for their own lost revenue. Thus raising the cost of living and thereby making it seem as if we have all lost money whle they themselves lose nothing.
The difference, of course, is that in order to increase revenues, a business must improve its customer service and the quality of its products.(That’s in a free market environment, not our current corporatist economy) Whereas the government merely takes whatever it wants by force. Free trade >>>>>>> armed robbery, every time.

Of course, I know perfectly well that “liberals” cannot or do not differentiate between the voluntary and the violently coerced…
