What is wrong with taxing the rich?

We all know the more money you have the more access you have to tax shelters, loopholes etc.. Especially right now, the middle class(the Republicans worker bees), don’t have anything left to give. What is fair about the rich dodging taxes and the rest of us footing most of the bill? The only way to dig ourselves out of this debt is taxes and we could build some capital fast by forcing the rich to just pay their fair share as well. Oh that and getting the hell out of Iraq. What is it we are spending daily there?
