And of course, those that did make more would take home LESS because their taxes have been raised to pay for health care, the quality of which would surely decline to a level similar to Canada and Europe, not to mention the negative effect the large tax raises would have on the economy, which would mean even less jobs available.
I could go on and on but my keyboard is about to rupture because I am so agitated.
