The highest tax rate under Jimmy Carter was 70%. Is that where you think it should be again? Because as soon as it happened, just like most small to mid-sized businesses who have worked hard and saved for the future, I would take my nest egg, close my doors and wait it out as long as possible (30 more people on unemployment). Since I didn't build it, the government can have it back and good luck running it(most likely into the ground the way they do everything else they touch). Fair share? What is my freakin fair share. 70%, 90%. While others are paying their fair share of 0%, getting food stamps, unemployment, and/or any and all other government entitlements while at the same time walking around in the latest fashion shoes, clothes, hair dolled up and driving the biggest baddest SUV on the planet, with or without the fancy rims or paint job and custom Bose sound system? Get real. When the idiots, Repub and Dem alike find and end the billions and billions they are wasting thru give aways and scams and "bridges to nowhere", then we'll look at the numbers and talk tax increases if needed. Til then.......nope.
