So in other words you want to tell other people what they should be paying but refuse to start a buss and be told what to pay your employees. Typical , good day sir.

I am against exploration of American workers. Good day you big job creator!
The poor get the free stuff. We take good care of the poor in this country. It isn't the rich that are being coddled.
What is your income? I doubt you are in the category referred to by the OP. You simply are repeating what you have been told to believe by Fox News and the like.

Oh, so that's why unemployment benefits have been running short in some states, Medicaid is also running short, job training for unemployed workers has been cut, state jobs have been furloughing workers due to cuts in federal support to states as well as shortfalls in state revenues, many of the poor don't have Medicaid at all and line up overnight to get medical and dental care by charities that roll through town twice a year, yeah, we take really good care of the poor. No coddling there.
At their core, capitalism and wealth creation are fed by innovation. When a minority of people, especially the older and established, own and accumulate the majority of wealth, and they use that wealth to game the system against everyone else, creativity is limited. Scientific studies have shown that the most original innovations will be initiated in the early 30s. Not exclusively, or course, but the armies of Mark Zuckerbergs and Bill Gates of the world are going to be more innovative than a few guys like Donald Trump.
Who is going to be more "hungry" and creative, a half dozen 60 something billionaires or 60,000 20-30 somethings chasing their first six figure pay check? When wealth aggregates, the genius of America is cut off at the roots. I have nothing against the wealthy, but thinking that making very rich persons richer will rekindle the American economy defies common sense.
We need to enable the young, hungry, and creative.
So what is your spin on it, when 20-30 somethings do become Facebook-type billionaires?
That is what America has always been about, average people doing various and extraordinary things, that advance the nation, and reaping the rewards for it.

I'm a tax payer, not rich or poor. Do you personally know poor people that are using the services the government provides? I do and in a past job experience saw what it really is that is going on with the system. Not everyone is cheating, but it goes on more that most people realize. The system is so generous that people qualify for things they don't even really need. The poor get plenty in the US. Or would you rather be poor in India or China? The wealthier tax payers fund these programs as all tax payers do. The rich are not coddled.
