Subject: RE: BS: Tax the rich? (Sorry if already posted)
Ya know, I don't trust all profesors... My first day in Statistics in college, the professor came out and using the chalk board proved that 1 = 2??? There were no apparent flaws in his meathodology..,. Maybe some of you folks have seen this also??? Yeah, I'm sure that there is some smoke and mirrors involved but it certainly left an impression on me...

As for taxes??? Of course, the rich will always say they pay too much... That is human nature... But if 5% control 82% of the wealth then and they are taxed as if they control only 55% then someone has to make up the 27% differential...

That is the real point...
