I believe most jobs are created by small businesses and most small business owners are not rich enough to get hit by the tax increase voted down.

Oh, yes. Yes, they are. Most ‘small business’ owners are worth about $500K on paper to the government. The tax cuts cut them off at the knees at half of their net worth!
I think you wandered into the wrong forum, Sweetheart, LOL!
Your first post was to me on this subject? You joined like two minutes ago, LOL!
Beat it.
You are sadly mistaken. But "taxing the rich" -- i.e. punishing them -- is expected to do exactly what for the country?
Will it cause them to create jobs?
Will it cause them to undertake more economic activity?
Will it improve the situation of the poor?
Will it cause them to retract their greedy claws from the oppressed proletariat, allowing the masses to achieve a socialist utopia?
It will do none of these things.
So, why do it?
