so all billionaires are like Bill Gates? There are other millionaires who got rich unethically, immorally, and probably illegally.

Again, you just don't understand. :)

Bill Gates was NOT poor at all. Never was. He was born in a wealthy family where his father is a prominent lawyer and his mother working for bank. He is extremely intelligent (he went to Harvard, his SAT score is 1590 out of 1600). He's a workaholic.

Those factors help mold him to become a billionaire.
 
Tax them at 40% doesn't make any difference, just up from 35% - only 5% increase.

Just let keep Bush tax cut on all incomes.
 
I've always heard that less than one half of one percent of the richest have over one half of our cash. I don't know it that is true or not.
 
Again, increased taxes do not work. It's the spending that's the probelm. No amount of raising taxes will help the spending problem. Tackle it at the core root of the problem and that's the reckless spending.
 
yeah we are a monkey business in political world. That's the big issue. We don't know how to budget which is why there is so many bankrupties.

It sure worked during the Clinton era!
 
Actually, Clinton cut spending on the military which put our nation at risk. What's not smart is to continually add new programs and more red tapes which cause more spending than ever than before. A deficit spending of $2.7 trillion dollars in two years (2009 and 2010 projected) is not the solution. Say it, Netrox, deficit spending is wrong. Or is your silence means you're agreeing with Obama's reckless spending habit? Which is it?
 
Not forgot about majority GOP in congress during whole of Clinton era, except for 1993-1995.

Ummm, I think you give too much credit to Obama. :P

It's his signature. Plus he was a Senator when Democrats had control of Congress since 2007. So, yeah, it's all his.

I never said he was poor and you are right about his father, mother, Harvard SAT and the very last....HE'S A WORKAHOLIC!!!!
Nothing was handed to him He deserves every penny. he made and you should give him credit for being a selfmade man. Those on the street corners of America make their bed, now let them lay in it. Don't tax folks just to pay for these lazy bums....just what obama wants to do!!!

I admire Bill Gates and Steve Jobs and a lot of other billionaires. It's not their money but their successes in their businesses. But I hold admiration for those who aren't even wealthy when they have done great deeds.

There are HARD WORKING people in all socioeconomic levels - some work really hard, some don't. A lot of hard working people make little money while there are people who work little and rake so much money.

Hard working is NOT the same as making more money. It's an important factor but it's NOT how it lands you to becoming wealthy - intelligence, discipline or even obsession, and social networks help you get there.
