After learning about the kind of money these people made I think there is
a real good argument for the reinstatement of the WWII era 90% tax rate. I
saw where one of these guys made 4 billion himself, for one year. How bad
would it be for him to have to get by on only 10% of that after taxes?
What is that, 400 million? Poor guy, how can he be expected to get by on
that?

Nobody deserves more than you make!




Does anyone actually deserve 400 million dollars? What's the point of
having that kind of money in the first place? Once you have all the
necessities of life covered everything else is just for useless luxuries
and doesn't do anything for you. Might as well let the government take
that surplus and use it for the common good. I would be glad to give up
that money if I were in his shoes. That's better than having one person
just buy himself more houses, cars, jewelry, and other crap rich people
buy because they have nothing better to do with their time.
