I'd hate to cross a line here but Jesus f***ing Christ, half of hte posts by "anti-rich" people here seem to be about the rich being focused purely on making money and high profits, while the other half seems to be about the rich having no desire to make money what so ever.
Yet they want higher, and higher, and higher taxes. In France, the new Socialist president of France is bringing in a 75% tax on millionaires and they wonder why successful people increasingly either move abroad with those measures or simply don't bother creating wonderful things because, after all, what's the point if it's all going to be pissed away and they're going to have the vast part of the proceeds of their labour simply taken away from them and given to the feckless, the idle, the stupid, the bigoted and millions of people from around the globe, some of them utterly backward barbarians, who the government have welcomed with open arms? It disincentivises progress.
They should stick the taxes up to 100%. See how many of the evil rich they have supporting them then.
