Another "Tax Break for the Rich"

From Liberal Dan...
Q: Left Jeff, Left Jeff, my right wingnut god fearing friend tells me that taxing the rich will only make the economy worse and hurt the poor more. She says that the rich will spend less and employ fewer people. What do I tell her?

A: Your friend obviously is a bigot and doesn't care what happens to the poor. The rich getting richer only makes the poor poorer. Taking some of the rich's money and distributing it out to those less fortunate will create wealth for everyone, not just the super rich who cheated their way to the top. After all the rich have plenty to go around, and it's only fair that they share with those less fortunate.
