富人的税收，意外的共同话题

周六，把刚写完的“富人还是那些富人”(http://blog.wenxuecity.com/myblog.php?blogID=53461)放在网上不久，就有网友回帖, 说45个自称“爱国百万富翁”的富豪们联署，要求政府废除布希时代的减税法，增加富人的税收。

接着，晚些时候，Buffet接受采访，再次呼吁给富豪阶层加税，巴老的意思还不是加一点点，下面是他的原话和Link。因为整个采访内容要在28日播放，新闻里只是一点摘录。听说还有别的内容，有兴趣的到时再去了解吧。

“If anything, taxes for the lower and middle class and maybe even the upper middle class should even probably be cut further,” Buffett said. “But I think that people at the high end — people like myself — should be paying a lot more in taxes. We have it better than we’ve ever had it.”

“The rich are always going to say that, you know, just give us more money and we’ll go out and spend more and then it will all trickle down to the rest of you. But that has not worked the last ten years, and I hope the American public is catching on.”

周末的博客意外地撞到了相同的话题，不过，这些话由富人自己出来是最有说服力。国会很快要开始就是否延续减税计划开始辩论了，现在只有一部分倾向民主党的富有阶层站出来疾呼，共和党那头的好象还是鸦雀无声。考虑到两党的积怨已深，到时估计又是一场互不买账、鸡同鸭讲的局面。

虽然美国的问题不是富人加了税就能解决的，但在这个乱世之秋，有人愿意牺牲自身的利益，勇敢的站出来，大喝一声，“我们不能在这样下去了”，这才是美国精神的体现，也才是一个国家的希望。
