Paul Krugman, Laureate of the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel 2008 at a press conference at the Swedish Academy of Science in Stockholm (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
This is a politically charged article from Paul Krugman, the Nobel economist, in his NYT blog. He compares the taxing of the super rich and ordinary working Americans. It’s well worth a read. Check it out!
Personally, I think that the super rich have a pretty good deal in the US compared to most other countries.
What do you think?
