<arghhh… the stupid ipad app (blogsy) Ive been using to create this blog just erased this post 4 times.. here goes again>

woke up today knowing exactly what i had to do… I had to prepare our taxes.. I don’t enjoy doing it, but its a good feeling getting it done. Truth be told, i dont actually even do our taxes, I just prepare all the data for our accountant.. and even that is more than i like thinking about money each year. I would be such a bad businessman.

doing our taxes, reminded me of the youtube video that our friend Gary posted the other day. It was about wealth distribution in America. It compared what people thought the wealth distribution in the country was and compared that to what people thought it should be.. then compared both of hose to what the distribution actually is. I found some of the statistics in there to be pretty shocking…  for example the fact that some CEO’s can make nearly 400 times what the average worker in their company makes just feels wrong. I was also shocked and saddened to see how much of the country lives at or below the poverty line.. and how little of this countries wealth is actually owned by the middle class.

I know its heresy  , but I would be very willing to pay more taxes if it could help make things more equitable…
