[QUOTE="brett636, post: 251148, member: 249"] Now why did you go off and do this? Don't you know facts and logic are not part of his arguments? Diesel- First you say a tax raise is not wealth redistribution, and then you go off on a tangent about how evil wealthy people are. If you had any real world economic sense you would know that it is wealthy people that invest in businesses are the same people creating jobs. Its their willingness to take risks that allows our economy to thrive. If Jim Casey had not taken the risk of investing $100 into his little messenger service you would not have the good job you have now. Thats the entire idea behind tax credits for businesses which is to reduce risk for people interested in creating jobs. Now I've never said we should bow at the feet of the wealthy, but I would never support taxing them into submission. Perhaps you should spend more time figuring out how to get yourself into that wealthy 1% and less time preaching about how evil they are. Going back to the original topic it appears that a good chunk of the 46million uninsured that you all like to point towards are uninsured voluntarily. Just like the homeless guy on the street begging for your pocket change. They are where they want to be. [/QUOTE]
