    "job creators" don't really create very many jobs when they get to effectively pay 20%...or 15% on cap. gains (way lower than most advanced countrie)

    meanwhile infrastructure is falling apart (mt. vernon bridge, twin cities bridge) and what's the national debt at now? 16 trillion? They can "sacrifice" a little more.

    you asked..

    shouldn't everyone "sacrifice" a little more so everyone has skin in the game? Why just some people? Taxes as a % of GDP are the same as they ever where. In the pst we had the money to build the bridges, but now we don't have the money to fix them? Or maybe we do, but its being spent on something else.
