How does having more money equate to "saved better than I"? More likely they had so much extra money after food, shelter, education, toys and vacations that they decided to invest it.
My thought was that if receiving a dividend and paying an income tax is so repulsive then why not eliminate dividends for those that really do not need them and increase the dividends for those that do need them? Needy rather than greedy.

Lets have a moratorium on tax credits and incentives to any industry. Lets restore the dividend that was unfairly taxed where Mr. Bob Gillam paid exactly the same amount as the poorest person in the poorest household in Alaska. Does Mr. Gillam think he deserves a state dividend? Is he that greedy? I doubt it. I think Mr. Gillam agrees that many in Alaska do not need a dividend and many in Alaska do need it. He just doesn't want to contribute by paying any state income taxes. I'm sure he donates a lot every year and writes it all off of his federal taxes.
