Are the Rich Taxed Enough in the United States?

We just need more productive people instead of the whiners and libtards that exist today. It can't be helped that some of the affluent are naturally more intelligent and smarter than the average chap, that they actually had a novel idea or sold a product that was in demand, of course leftist retards who never produced a thing in their meager lives want to tax them because governments generation ZERO wealth.

Intelligence Squared U.S. hosts a debate on whether the rich are taxed enough in the United States. How do we fix the economy? The U.S. government's budget deficit is nearing a trillion dollars for the fourth straight year and unemployment remains high. With the Bush-era tax cuts that are set to expire at the end of 2012, what is the best move for continued economic recovery? President Obama says we should raise taxes on those making more than $250,000 to reduce the deficit. Others say that the richest 1% already pay more than a quarter of all federal taxes and higher taxes for job creators would slow economic growth. Are the nation's wealthiest not paying their "fair share," or should tax breaks be extended for everyone in the name of job creation? For the Motion: Glenn Hubbard and Arthur Laffer. Against the Motion: Robert Reich and Mark Zandi.
