The rich in America have been sitting on their money. They have not been using it to hire people. They tell us they have no intentions of hiring anyone any time soon. They just don’t have the sales to justify the hires. So it seems to me, taxing the rich at the same rates as everyone else will give the government some of that money they are sitting on to hire people to do things like repair bridges, roads and schools, which have to be fixed sometime anyway. Repairs are nearly always cheaper now than later. Republican leader, Mitch McConnell, tries to pretend giving the rich even more money to sit on is what will create jobs. What BS! He knows perfectly well that is a lie, but that does not stop him from bleating it over and over like a lost goat.
