Taxing rich people more does not raise anybody's wages.
Quite the contrary, in fact.Since rich people are generally the owners of businesses, taxing them more will often lead to them cutting their employees' hours, pay, and ultimately jobs in order to lessen how much of a hit they take financially and keep their businesses in the black.
There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
