Trouble in this Country

We are in trouble in this country because we have to many millionairs and billionairs in the country that they have made at the expense of the general public. They made their money in this country and they should be willing to spend that money to support the country that gave them the chance to make all that money. We could cure all our problems by raising the personal income tax one percent for every $100 thousand after the first $250 thousand up to 90 percent. With our present system the rich just keep getting richer .For example the mayor of New York is worth $20 billion .If he earns 4 percent on that he is getting $800 million richer every year. That is money that has to come out of the economy. I know he spends some of that money but even if he spends two million and gives two million away he still made 796 million to ad to his wealth’.Even if the government only got one half of that 796 million in taxes , That sure would help A lot of people that have no money and no job. And lower the taxes for the general public. I know this is A pipe dream because we have to many rich people in Washington making the laws that benefit them more then the general public and that is part of the trouble we are in now.
