most rich people i know are rich because they create a good or service that is needed by the local community.
If you tax these people, they pass that additional cost onto the consumers through their prices.
So, when you hear an R-tard say, tax the rich. Inform them that rich people don't pay taxes, you do. and anytime you raise taxes on rich people, you raise your cost of living.

"Well, well, but we'll inhibit their ability to pass the cost on to the customer. Then everything is cool, right?," says the R-tard.

at that point, ask- "well, if we are going to use government force against them, why not go all the way and take their property and give it to yourself. if you are going to be a thief, you might as well go all the way with it."

there are still way too many r-tards.
