Back to the original post - taxing those with incomes > $200K.  If you are
trying to start a small business, you will find that 1) venture capitalists
are a tight group, and typically don't invest in firms unless the projections
are for huge returns; 2) banks don't want to touch you unless you have a lot
of capital to reposses (store inventories do nicely); 3) the only real source
of investment money for, say, a small startup software firm is professionals.

Yup, it's that heinous group of exploitive bourgeoise that is investing in new
jobs, cottage industries, and originality.
