I do NOT "espouse the basis of trickle down economics." :roll:
I recognize that wealth held in the hands of a few is mostly wealth not spent.
Although an argument can be made that it is investments by wealthy that fund advancements.
No...I espouse the idea that my property is MINE, however much or little it may be.
It should be MY choice how much or how little I wish to share with others.
I believe in Democratic principles...but I do not believe in pure democracy which always turns into a tyranny of the majority...leading to redistribution of wealth (i.e. legal robbery) by "fair voting."
Your property IS yours, earned in an environment made possible by government, tax funded services.
Your notion of "fairer" taxation has been going on for the last 30 years, under the guise of trickle down economics....so I ask again, how's that been working out?
