The rich are the ones who start businesses and buy a lot of things. So why do we insist on taxing them?

anyone knows that does their homework that it has always been Small Businesses that have pulled us out of the economical hardships when we have come upon hard times like we are facing in this day and age. But still it is easier to tax the hell out of the small businesses and middle working cl then to have big businesses cut back or should I say stop giving much unneeded raises to ones that do not deserve it. And lets not forget the big businesses that take the retirement that the work man has been saving for only to be left with nothing. It has always been SMALL BUSINESS that has brought us out of our despair!!! Not big businesses
