It seems like those jobs are getting harder and harder to find and most of the growth is in the service sector. We are becoming a nation of paper shufflers and people performing services for each other. If your experience is like mine then most of your friends and family have jobs where they do not make anything (doctors, lawyers, teachers, etc...)
As far as raising taxes on the rich, I thought that this decreased revenue as the wealthy have the resources to buy political support and hire pros to find more tax shelters. Income taxes are only collected on what is determined to be taxable income. Wouldn't it be nice if we all could pay income taxes only on what we show as profit each year?
