Ironically, that was mine last year.People with lots of wealth earn from profits on capital gains through business transactions, and dividends which are also tax favored.Successful business people will hopefully be rewarded for business activities and since unemployment is so high, even so called fat cats who are potential employers are probably going to be favored.Not sure what rich is.
