Knew it had to be Liz and TJ when I saw this comment . HAHA <| sep |> Oh man , I literally just watched this episode and I totally forgot about Paul ! <| sep |> I won ' t even bother trying to answer something like your post , instead of telling people they suck you could give linksinfo of people you think are worth watching and put some effort in your answers but I guess we are not all on the same page in regards of doing research and trying to help others DEDIT I ' m wondering if you even read the post lol <| sep |> The issue with trying to tax the rich is that they ' ll end up hiding their wealth away , or just bribing people in the government for favours . Another issue is that when you start hiking up taxes on the rich , or businesses , it doesn ' t do any favors for your economy . The private sector can really take care of a lot of things such as scientific research , healthcare , education , infrastructure . When institutions and businesses are allowed to compete they try their best to offer the best quality product for the least amount of money . Atleast , that is when capitalism is actually allowed to work . And its been a long time since the US allowed it to work that way anyway . A strong government that has its populace dependent on it for healthcare , educationWhere you can indoctrinate them to think a certain right way , maybe you agree with it but what of the people who don ' t ? welfare can easily abuse this . It is very dangerous . That ' s why its better for the people to take care of this themselves . I think the government should stick to enforcing law and order , protecting private property , and defending the environment . Let ' s not forget that unethical monopolies would find it very hard to stay afloat for long in a free market . Too bad right now they can pay off people to look the other way .
