the rich getting richer isn't a problem as long as it isn't having an adverse effect on the rest of the classes. From my view, I don't think the US has a problem with rich people. I think this assault on the top 1% is crap. I think its crap that 50% of the population pays no taxes at all and yet go out and complain that the rich don't pay enough taxes.
That being said, I think that there needs to be room for compromise in government and when we are having such huge budget shortfalls, I think everything needs to be on the table, including tax increases. I think there needs to be way more spending cuts, welfare needs reform, and tax loopholes need to be closed. If taxes need to be raised then it should be raised across all incomes, not just the rich. Just think how much income the government would get if that 50% had to pay a couple hundred dollars instead of nothing. Personally, I'm a school teacher and I probably only pay 3% to 5% a year in taxes.
