The Christian-Socialists are at it again. This time local religious leader Gray Fitzgerald heads up the charge, arguing in this mornings Union leader for higher taxes on the “rich.” He opens his ‘thesis’ thusly;’To tax the richest at such low rates is morally bankrupt.” The rest is predictable and easily synopsized.
Some people, you see, have the good fortune to earn too much. Let’s not discuss how they got that way or the fact that they pay most of the taxes already. This is not about dealing with Tax-law breakers (like Obama’s cabinet and Czars) it is about making laws to confiscate more. So Fitzgerald believes we should take more by force (of law), and that faiing to do so is somehow immoral.

Mr. MacDonald,
I read that tripe in the paper this morning as well. Am trying to find it online at the Union Leader web site to no avail.
Interesting to note that Mr. Fitzgerald does not indicate just how much tax is paid at 15% on 5 billion(750 million $) which is not chump change. I would suggest that Mr. Fitzgerald inform his readers just how many people making under 40K a year it would take to add up to 750 million. Answer: all of them in this country.
Classic article from libs. Take more from the guy who has more. They don’t credit how the income was earned.
The other error he makes is our tax policy transfers wealth to the rich. What the heck is he talking about? Not sure what the Union Leader is thinking about giving this guy the space, but no one can say they shut him up. Illogical arguments from a fool are protected by our laws. Great country USA is.
