Most millionaires arent self-made. You have a "romantic" wiev on this shit. All the shit Wall Street does, politicians etc. They are dirtbags and because they have had an easy life they dont have a personallity and is totally dis-connected from the real world.
Source blacken ?
Not true. You should read "The Millionaire Next Door" and its sequel "The Millionaire Mind." A 20-year study of American millionaires (people with a net worth of $1 million or more). By and large, they are self-made. They own their own businesses. They did not inherit their wealth. They don't drive expensive cars. They live below their means. They are not "dirtbags."
Im not talking about people who have a million or 2 on their account even though they are of course also by definition millionaires

You fucking should since those are the people equally whacked by your communist dreams of obamas' tax policies.
Everybody with a worth over 100 million dollars should pay more percentage of their income to tax than anybody who is not worth over 100 million dollars. I think this generally takes out most of the "pull oneself up by the bootstrap" people. Plus the higher percentage will not affect their livelihood because of their overall worth.What would your reply be if someone made the above argument.
Not really the % of the money from a person or company thats earns 100-1000 more times than that will mean they pay a lot more than the people who savings of 1-10 million.Why so protecting of the people with money i think they will manage
You still don't get it, TAXABLE INCOME, that is the key to this whole thing. The government does not tax ones wealth.
We should not penalize success. I'm in favor of eliminating the income tax in favor of a national sales tax. That way, consumers can control how much they pay in taxes. Level the playing field.
Do i really need a source that tell you Wall Street and politicians are corrupt scumbags that wants to rip us off You use 90% of your time on this board and post stories about this everyday. Well only when its democrats but still you know this shit
Source it or shut the fuck up, you shitty gimmick. Do you think anyone should take as fact the opinion of a jobless benefit-leech whose greatest accomplishment life is his ability to expose himself for running a dozen gimmicks on an internet forum?
you ever going to cite your source for most millionaires are trust fund babies?No??? color me shocked
