Re: Geithner Pushes Tax Boost for the Wealthy

Dear Sirs:
By defending increasing taxes on the wealthy, Treasury Secretary Geithner honestly reveals three things about this administration that the American people should know. One, that this administration wants more of the peoples' money; two, that the administration knows that the only place to get it is by taking more of the money from the nation's most productive people (that's why they are paid more); and, three, that the administration believes that savings is bad for the economy. Seldom has a high administrative official been so revealing about the vast chasm that exists between those who must work for a living and those who live as parasites off the fruits of others' labor.
