[Rhodes22-list] politics- Stan ought to tell Steve why

[Michael Meltzer]

I waiting for someone to point out the obvious here, the people who make 
more that 200,000 will never pay more, they just reconfigure their 
income so it not taxable(small bisques anyone), or move it offshore, or 
pay an account. Income tax these days is a w2 tax, at 200,000 is not w2 
so much any more and is most cases bright people. BTW that is what 
pisses me off for some of kerry subpart, they claim they are happy to 
pay higher taxes when they know how to avoid them.
