- viggity 16y agoI'm happy to pay (reasonable) taxes for needs that cannot be easily serviced by private industry. That isn't what my post was about. The post I was replying to was trying to insinuate that having "excess wealth" leads to being unhappy and therefore (in the context of the OP) it is ok to tax the rich more because it will make them happier in the end. And that is a bullshit reason for taxing someone.
