Moron, how are you even comparing a pay increase of an individual to federal spending. Are you really that big of a simpleton? The govt is spending too much money.
Taxing the rich also stops private investment and private spending in the economy. Those are the job creators and taking people income and giving it to the government stifles spending by individuals and business.
You have a one tracke pea brain. You really do. You are so jealous and obsessed with other people's money
And yes I know people who make less money than someone else and have much more money and things to show for it. It is called living within your means ans reducing debt. The bloated govt cannot stop trying to grow and spend. They are like a drunken sailor.
