1519 [lbo-talk] Comments on WSJ article "The Price of Taxing the Rich" -- rank: 1000
On Mar 29, 2011, at 12:31 PM, Bryan Atinsky wrote: > Those are all good answers, but for a slightly different argument.

On Mar 29, 2011, at 10:53 AM, Bryan Atinsky quoted some apologist for plutocrats: > New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Illinois states that are the most heavily reliant on the taxes of the wealthy are now among those with the biggest budget holes.
