I'm still waiting for someone to ask him (or anyone in this situation) this question. Ok, you're wealthy, you didn't work but you earned a lot by investing, we gave you a tax break on this money so that you would create jobs and that wealth would trickle down. Just how many jobs did you create with your investments in the last two years? Wouldn't it be great if this was asked at a Republican debate? Would the audience get it?

There's been a lot in the news about Mitt Romney's taxes. I think Jon Stewart did as good a job as any I've seen at putting it all in context and why we should care. The point starting at the 4 min mark I didn't see anyone else make.
