This is why Westboro Baptist Church is a joke

Only one comment.
I am not angry at the super rich. I just consider sharing wealth to help a country back on its feet.

I just saw a clip from one of the speakers leading the "occupy LA" mob. He called for a rejection of Gandhi's peaceful resistance, and an embrace of the tactics of the French revolution. He said that violence, and blood shed will be necessary. He called for a victory for socialism.

So, then, you are not in lock step with the "occupy" movement. But, measure for the US or for the Netherlands, the total amount (not relative) of money that is given by what you consider to be the "super rich". In the US (as of 2008), the top 50% pay ~97% of income taxes collected. The top 10% provide 70% of income tax revenue. The top 1% of earners pay 38%, of all income tax revenue collected. But, that isn't enough. So now, they want to go after the money they make from risking their wealth on investments (including tax free government bonds).

Because the same question can be posed for the greek or Italian citizens; their nepotistic leaders have made a mess, and the small guys have to pay. Is that fair?

Sometimes yes, and sometimes no. The leaders may have made a mess, but that's what you get for delegating responsibilities to the state that you should be able to take care of on your own.

You give them the power, and then you complain about how they use it.
