| Ingenius. If we took all the money from the upper class, we would still have a big deficit and there would be no 'upper class'. |

Why take money from hard workers? That will just decrease there incentive to work and earn money. Thus making the economy worse.
Real solution: Less government |

isn't that good? If we tax the upper class and give tax cuts to lower and middle class, we'd only have a middle class and everyone would work hard! |

Makes sense.
Too bad that's not actually what ever happens.

| ^We do tax all the workers. We tax the upper class 55% of their income. We tax the middle class probably about 50% and the poor who are on welfare get no taxes. |

Where the heck did you get these figures?
Oh right, your but.
The taxes will be at Clinton era levels, the same levels that saw economic growth post 1990's recession. |

And look at all the poor on welfare who are looking for part time jobs.

Also if the middle class were taxed what you claimed they were you wouldn't have much money if you made less than 100k a year.
