It always chokes me up whenever somebody complains that the rich are only paying 15% on capitol gains, or there is this loophole or that loophole. Get over it. The Congress has determined that it is beneficial to the country to reward certain activities, such as investing, so the gains on those investments are taxed at a lower rate. Don't like it? Eliminate the tax code that allows such things and support the Fair Tax.<br> <br> Also, (I know this is OT, but relevant) this business about the disparity between the haves and have-nots: Have you considered the introduction of 12 million 'undocumented persons' who drive down wages? Imagine the effect on wages if employers had to pay the wage that Americans would work for.
