Interestingly, of the top 400 richest people in America, just under half consider themselves "liberal", and just under half "conservative". Seems that "liberals" value hard, independent work, and self-made success, just as much as "conservatives". But they seem to believe more in the Golden Rule, and helping others who are less fortunate than themselves.
A. You brought up chipping in to make this country better, I was curious if you just offered the minimum required of you government or were proactive in any way.
B. They do follow the golden rule, as long as the help comes at the expense of us "wealthy" people. I have said it before, I will say it again, $250,000.00 is not a lot of money anymore.
