Cannon, you can still dislike Obama's appointments and housing farce and hate Bush. Try it sometime.

I didn't listen but can venture a guess....the richest spend more, have more R and D for their businesses and hire more people. More venture capital to spend.....so they deserve better treatment!

Don't forget they (along with cigarette smokers!) pay most of the taxes too. Except for Administration Appointees, and some Congressmen and Senators.
