If hedge fund managers had to pay the same taxes as everyone else, how long until the country is destroyed?

They don't get paid in "Income" but get paid thru Capital Gains where they only pay 15% tax. It's not OK and it will change.

They don't, that's why. Unless you're referring to capital gains, which is income earned through significantly higher risk taking than normal income. And ONLY long term capital gains get the lower tax rate.

It was a discounted rated to encourage long term investment. Get rid of that tax break and you'd instantly open up the market to a whole lot of volatility in the market.. volatility that the tax break on long term investments was implemented to prevent.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
