Ezra Jennings on taxing the rich

Jennings said, "Any sensible system of taxation in this country is based on soaking the richest people. I saw somewhere that 20% of the people in this country own over 80% of the wealth. The next 40% have about 17% of the wealth, and the lowest 40% have about 3% of the wealth. How on earth can you NOT tax those richest folks?"

Jennings continued, "And don't come to me with that b-lls--t about the rich people leaving the country and taking their wealth with them. I'd be glad to see them go. As I understand it, the real engine of economic growth and job creation in the United States is small business. Those insanely rich people are not starting small businesses or creating any jobs, except for chauffeurs and scullery maids. And all of those jobs get filled by illegal aliens."
