The rich aren't the ones that need tax cuts. A wealthy person having to settle for a 50' yacht instead of a 60' yacht isn't as great a sacrifice as a middle-class family having to settle for only putting one of two kids through college.

So, you are for giving privleges to people based on their needs, eh? So, do you think religion is the opiate of the masses, or is that were you and Uncle Karl (Marx) split up? Why is it right to heavily tax "the rich" but not tax "the poor" who are more likely to use the social services that are provided by our country? Why should people use the EITC to get back money that they never paid in, but is paid by someone who is rich? That isn't a "tax refund", it is outright communism via wealth redistribution.
I don't know if you really are lacking in comprehension, but you act like that the money that is being taken from the "rich" isn't their money, when it is! Do you think big corporations pay taxes? No, we pay them when there is a tax hike because they hike the prices to offset the tax hike.
People that make over 54,000 dollars a year, by our system, are considered "rich". They get royally screwed. And most people that run a business in this country run a small one, and they can't expand or do anything because the tax noose around their throats. Explain to me how the guy who runs two "Bob's general stores" is a rich fat cat, Carnivore? He would like to hire a few more people, but the taxes he has to pay hurts the hell out of him, and the recent tax hike is cutting into his business. Please go to any one of the millions of these businesses in our country and explain your yacht story. I'd love to be a fly on the wall when they respond.
And who cares if the rich can afford to give people the best. That is called life. Life is "unfair" sometimes. But don't punish others because they are well off. What happens if you become well off; do you want some other little insignifigant jerk telling you why you shouldn't whine about not being able to keep more of your money?
You should take out one of those gay little logos you like to pull out every time I get "owned" and give one to me. I'll go get the magic market and write "Moron" on your forehead just as a warning for anyone who want's to have an intelligent conversation with you.
