[Paleopsych] The rich get more benefits

[Steve Hovland]

I think rich is more like over $10 million per year-
the Forbes list and a bunch of people who don't
want us to know how much money they have.

The government is part of the economy.  Taxes
paid to the government do not drain the economy.
They merely shift money from one part of the
economy to another.  This shifting increases the
velocity of money, which causes the economy
to grow.

Many private enterprises get a significant portion of 
their revenue from the taxes paid to government.  On 
the right there is a lot of hypocrisy about this.

Actually, the rich already pay most of the taxes, if you call rich 
people above $100k/yr. So any tax cut will affect them simply because 
that is where the taxes are. Taxes are a drain on the economy, so tax 
cuts make all people - even poor and middle class - better off.
