Give us an example of how higher taxes have benefited the low class. Maybe you could use a high tax haven like California?
I think you've made the mistaken assumption that government has your best interests at heart. Has the government trickled down that tax money to worthy causes? Do you expect that same government who gives these wealthy businessmen so much to suddenly invest MORE tax money wisely?
It seems to me that we have constant tax increases with no benefit except to pad elitists pockets in Washington.
