There's so much exaggeration from the hardcore righties on this issue, it's crazy. Let the line form to the left of those who want to swap their white collar job/paycheck for a life on welfare.
Look, the wealthy have a far bigger stake in the overall health of the economy than the poor do, because they have much more to lose. The wealthy have a vested interest in preserving the sort of environment that allows them the opportunity to succeed financially.
Of course, there are still people who would like to eat their cake and have it too.
