That guy is dead wrong. The majority of rich people come from poor or middle class families.
I disagree with taxing higher incomes to help the "unfortunate". If someone is making 8 bucks an hour and are not happy, then they should do something about it to make more instead of complaining about their wage. If you get paid a low wage, it is for a reason. That reason is that anyone can do the same job.
Its possible you might not be able to reason with that guy's opinion. Some people are just stuck on the idea of stealing from the rich to feed the poor. If he thinks rich should be taxed more to pay for the kids born into poor families, he is a moron. He is just jealous and has resentment towards people who earns more than him.
I could go off on a rant...I hate people who think the rich get taxed more because the "poor" (lazy) people need help. I'm making less than 15,000 a year, and I think opposite of that guy.
