My wife is in education so I was leaning toward those teachers despite my crummy experiences with factory rip off unions. When they welcomed that big greasy bag of spit; I now hope the government there decimates them.

I take him seriously. I find many citizens to be deluded into believing that they will, some day, be the CEO making a million dollars/day. So they say hoorah as the rich get ultra rich while the middle class dissolves.

He is outspoken, of course I don't agree with many of his ideas.

Just bought and watched "Capitalism: A Love Story". Thought it was well done overall.

At least he fought.

He clearly suffers from a mental condition. Anyone know what percentage of his income goes to charitable donations?

To answer the OPs question. I think rationally and I cannot take him at all seriously.

It's been like that for over a Century and is the basis for every tax system in the Western World.

Rich should pay more of their income in tax. Period. End of Story. Deal with it.

The rich DO pay more.. And we HAVE a progressive income tax. Around 47% of our population pays almost no Federal income tax at all.

Duh.
