You have said repeatedly that it doesn't help the middle class if you redistribute the wealth. Well, we've been doing it a long time. It does strengthen the middleclass. If we didn't do it, you would just see rich and poor. You are all hot n' bothered about taxing your rich doctor friends. So, go the other way and get rid of the taxes on the middle class. That's who needs help in this country. The main reason we have all these problems for the middle class is the rich don't want to pay anybody much. So, they don't, and yet they want a civilized society (somehow,) and so what they refuse to pay in salary and benefits is paid in taxes. You can btch all ya want about it, but if ya didn't have a progressive tax system( the wealth redistribution you say doesn't work,) then this country would be a sh-i-thole.
