    The founder and CEO of Netflix has the right idea and obviously agrees with President OBama. He says forget about salary caps etc., but raise taxes on the millionaires. And he is one of them. He suggests fifty per-cent at a million and over.

      He obviously does not think about what his accountants and lawyers will do for him if that happens. Money goes where the IRS can't tax it and the revenue goes down. JFK understood that principal. He dropped the highest tax rate a lot. Increased revenue. Happens every time. Raise taxes and revenue goes down. Happens every time.

        Oh well:
        I made the kids discontinue our Netflix thing.
        The POP-UPs ticked me off.

        Every time except for those when the economy is not already expanding, as it was when JFK lowered the highest tax rate.

        Did revenue increase over the past eight years, after Bush cut taxes?

          With the newly released payroll employment data for December 2004 it is now possible to assess whether the administration's tax cut strategy produced the employment growth that was projected (see table and figure below). The final verdict is grim. Job growth over the last 18 months has fallen short by 1,703,000—more than one-third less than the number of jobs the administration said would be created without the tax cuts.
