If you hate the wealthy you should hate the job you have, the loan that you got to pay for your house and cars, and the food on your table. If you want to realize it or not, all these are provided by business owners and the wealthy who invested their money to make society better. They spread the wealth the best way it can be possibly distributed, not even in ways the government could. Trickle down economics works. It's the government regulations that are failing you.

You do not have any grasp of logic.
If you honesty listened to our complaints you would understand. But you do not.  
You are a true modern republican and therefore you are an idiot.

Wealthy are job creators. There's also middle class job creators who create small business's. How is Mitt a 'douchebag'?

no, they're not. it's a complete myth. demand creates jobs, the rich don't.

you know what happens when the rich and big corporations are given tax breaks as an 'incentive' to create jobs? nothing, that's what. NO jobs, instead that money goes to increase the profit margin.

At the very least, people with too much money to just plop in a savings or checking account facilitate jobs by sustaining the businesses that create those jobs.  I know I can't start a bar or accounting firm or restaurant without investments and loans provided by wealthy individuals.  And if I could, well golly gee that would make me wealthy and a job creator.  

Yeah, nobody here is arguing that crony capitalism is good.  It sucks, and it's what happens when the government meddles.

Listen to you people? All I hear is "you don't want to pay taxes wahh you greedy fool" and the like. I don't know any logical liberal arguments because we don't hear any here because you guys are busy ripping on moron straw men then offering your own logical arguments.

See here is a perfect example:  
http://www.golivewire.com/forums/peer-ebasson-support-a.html
sharing money involves having a choice.  right, nothing illogical there.

then there's this:
http://www.golivewire.com/forums/peer-ebassbo-support-a.html
tax cuts make perfect sense, filled with straw men.  
What arguments do you people make here that we're not paying attention to?

You might want to make an actual point. We're not making arguments, we're tearing arguments apart.

You wouldn't know anything about creating jobs. My fathers owns a construction business, and Obama's regulations (Obamacare) will cause my dad to lay off 10-15 of the 30 employees because providing health insurance will be too costly to provide for all of his employees.
