Guess there's no point in being an innovator and profiting in the US any more. That ideal is what built this county, and a select few were talented enough to make it happen.

Now everyone else wants to cash in too because "it's unfair" that they didn't do it.

That seriously is one of the dumbest pieces of literature Ive read this year. The prize is still out there, if you're too lazy or complacent to go seize the opportunity, that's your problem, not one the Gov't needs to fix for you.

Stupid + Money = Separation of Funds :yesnod:

Anyone with a fraction of intelligence and the means will have the correct accountant to ease their fear of the Tax Man. :D

I'm not afraid ... and I sleep just fine. :cheers:No one was talking about you, unless you are proclaiming to be among the super-rich of this country. :D

Seems you were just b'tching about the top 2%ers catching a break not long ago. :bilmem:

I'm not afraid to tax them. history clearly proves that every time we do the economy jumps through it's ass. it's time to do it again. :cheers:
