Well, I suppose it bothers me less to have tax breaks for the wealthy because they have busted their butts to get wealthy. I'm not talking about the Hilton sisters here. I'm talking about their father, Donald Trump, Warren Buffett, etc. Most wealthy people have worked their freakin' butts off to get wealthy and stay that way. On the other hand, people who get stuff for free tend to stay that way, too. Why lift a finger when I can get things for free? Now I have no problem helping people out who want to get better. If someone needs some money or food or a place to stay till they can get on their feet, come on over. But, have a plan in mind for getting better, or beat it. I don't think we should provide handouts for people who just want to freeload.
