The 1%

I think the 1% should not be totally financially obligated to help the 99%. The 1% worked hard to get their money and it is theirs to keep. They are already being taxed, and that helps the 99%. That being said, I think the 1% needs to continue to create jobs for the 99% and remember how they got that wealth in the first place. They should contribute to charities to help the 99% and keep jobs open. One thing I think is unfair is the estate tax that the 1% has to pay. I don't think it is right that we force people to pay taxes on money they are giving to their heirs. We already made them pay a huge amount of tax when they first earned it.
