Well, the RSI still has some more it could give up. The chart looks like one of the many road-kill pinksheets I've had the displeasure to come across 'oer oh these many years.
No signs of life in that chart that I can see.
As for not wanting to give up any money "earned" to those less fortunate...I never saw the logic or merit in those making $250k-/$100 Billion in "passive income"(ie dividends or capital gains "earned" by sitting on their butts in a golf cart) taxed at a lower rate than their gardener and secretary have to pay in income/payroll taxes.
"Redistibution of wealth" goes both ways and has been done through the tax structure from day one. And it's gone from the worker class to the wealthy through the tax structure for long enough.
"Socialism" isn't only when the money goes down. Thats just a one-sided and convenient construct of the right wing and wealthy.
Besides...give a multi millionaire a tax cut and it doesn't automatically go into some "productive investment". Shorting stocks through a hedge fund isn't productive and adding it to big pile of money already held that's so big it can never all be spent isn't either.
Give it to a middle class person and it'll go back into the economy very quickly which will support that fat cat's business allowing him to hire more workers. And maybe "Joe Middleclass" would like to start a plumbing business. He could use a little extra to help him get his entrpreneurial idea off the ground. Heck, he might even hire somebody to help him.
We're all sick of getting "trickled down" on. It rarely seems to show up at all and when it does it smells more like ransid piss than anything else.

McGRANDPA's choice of Palin for VP was irresponsible, dangerous and an insult to Americans. By that choice and his continuing evil he's proving he'll do anything to win this election even to the point of endangering his own country. DEFEAT HIM!
McBUSHIE'S choice of Palin was irresponsible, dangerous and insulting to America's intelligence. That choice and his continuing smears/lies prove he'll do anything to win this election even to the point of endangering his own country.DEFEAT HIM!
