And the rich really DO help the economy. Their purchases alone end up providing many jobs, federal revenues in taxes, etc. How many poor folks hire employees? Trickle down really does work, regardless of the attempts by some to brainwash you into believing otherwise.

Reality. People are and always have been the same. You will never see anyone, any organization say you have given enough do not give any more. An interesting to me example, The march of dimes, i am not implying they are crooked. It was set up for polio aid. Polio no longer exists. The charity still does.
As far as the rich, you do not want to work for the poor. Your check that you need to pay
your bills, it is more than a little problem when you boss bounces checks, delays mailing them out of the classic the check was lost in the mail-we will send you a replacement in
two weeks.
