You're a dumbfuck point #1: YOU are the one who started with "oh im better than you" so get your facts straight, i was defending myself...
You're a dumbfuck point #2: Taxing the top 5% of the country, no matter how much they make, will not make Everyone suffer... will the other 95% stop trying because they now have tax breaks... will the other 5% leave the country and stop working because they got taxed so much: No.... this psychological effect u think will happen wont, and yes, i am educated enough to analyze psychological effects.
You're a dumbfuck point #3: by saying there are more "bottom feeders" than people who make all the money, and then stating obama is the one thats going to help all these "bottom feeders" then you are saying that Obama is looking out for the interests of More of the American people... you can't sidestep that issue just because u don't deem these people as worthy of your acknowledgment. The numbers dont lie

Oh okay. So your major has nothing to do with economics. May I ask what makes you think you know more about economics than I do? I'm not arguing with you about anything that has to do with neuroscience because I don't doubt that you know more about it than I do, but for some reason you think you know more about the economy than me and I'm not sure why. Please explain.
I said I know more about the economy than you and Pinky. That's it. Pinky majored in history or some shit and you're majoring in behavioral neuroscience, neither of which has any relevance to economics. That was the point I was trying to make. My knowledge of the economy is better than yours and Pinky's combined. I'm not saying I'm better than anybody, just that my knowledge of the economy is better than most people's (that's not to say my knowlege of everything is better than most people's). I'm not better than anybody. However, my knowledge of the economy is better than a lot of people.
Check your facts again, retard. The percentage of the population who is going to suffer as a result of Obama's bullshit tax policies is WAY higher than the top 5%. I've said time and time again that I'm not sitting here arguing for the people who make $10 million a year. Of course if taxes are raised it shouldn't affect them much. You're arguing under the FALSE assumption that only the very elite (income wise) of the population are going to be taxed, and as a result it shouldn't matter. You're fucking wrong.
I didn't sidestep any issue. You have about as good of reading comprehension as Pinky does. If you raise taxes to 50% on the people who create jobs, provide goods and services and generate capital, it will kill the motivation to maintain businesses. More importantly, it will lower the reward for starting businesses. People won't make big risks unless the opportunity for reward is even bigger. If you take away that big reward by taxing half of these people's incomes, they won't take near as many risks. Furthermore, when the people who actually have the ability to create jobs (have you ever been hired by a poor person?) start losing their desire to create jobs, EVERYBODY will suffer -- bottom feeders included. Obama's tax policies won't help anybody.
I'd highly advise you to stick to your neuroscience classes because you have no future in anything related to the economy.
