        @WSJ The rich can always find ways not to pay or pay less if they so desire to. Ones not overseas will go.

        @WSJ Except raising taxes on rich will not fix the problem. Fed gov't is so big now that taxing rich is no longer a practical solution!

        @WSJ I think the definition of rich needs to be looked at. Also co such as GE getting fed money, earning $$$$ and pay no tax should STOP

        @WSJ of course, because those 75% are unaffected. The real question to consider: "Is everyone willing to pay more?"

        @WSJ It's the definition of rich that needs to change!According to Obama I'm rich although I'm over 80,000 in debt with no job?
