Have you ever wondered why billionaires like George Soros financially support politicians who say they will "increase taxes on the rich"?

I found this old opinion article from 2008, interesting.

Which one?????

The answer quite simply is that the tax increases are most often put on people trying to become rich, not those already rich. Hence, the rich, big government advocates can gain far more by “buying” the politicians.

And that is what I have been saying all along. They want to go after people at the $250,000. level which then you can bet they 1 mil and over will still have all their loopholes, grants and deductions and most dems call that fair. And the dem voters fall for the dems bit.
