You're rationalizing.

Probably the majority of Americans don't work for the "rich". They work
for small businesses. The people who run those aren't rich enough for a
"pitchfork". No biting of hand that feeds in this case. And in a networked
world you don't need big businesses anymore. We're basically living in a
science fiction world but there are some laggers who haven't caught up because
they thing the game is accumulating lots of money and being a "king." So out
of fashion.

I guess you just like to live in a world where you bow down to the
"landed gentry". That's where we're headed now. I'd rather stick a pitchfork
in them.

And when you tax TF out of businesses and or the rich, they have less
money to expand or modernize businesses( remember the steel industry back in
the 70'S) or to give raises to their employees. You end up with fewer jobs and
smaller tax base, less revenue and so the government barrows more money to
meet it's needs, which turns out to be unemployment benefits, welfare and food
stamps etc. for those that can't find jobs because there aren't any, because
the government is taking the profits from the businesses! Unions don't help
either because they've become so greedy that they drive their members jobs
over seas (Textiles). When was the last time you bought an article of clothing
made in the USA? If you did, a shirt would probably cost you nearly sixty
dollars! Just came back from shopping and that's what I found.

When the working class have less money to spend the economy goes
into the dumps. That's why Mike's solution won't work. A lot of US
businesses are having problems like McDonalds, Coke and even Starbucks keeps
trying to get it's customers to come spend more. It's easy to see these
signs of desperation in a crashing economy.

With "trickle down" all you get is the rich peeing on the poor.

The title of the article was quite inflammatory, as usual, being HuffPo

Rates to create hysterical click bait. Later in the article they fessed up.
