I don't for a second disagree that with a better economic outlook that money could be better put to use and it could help the economy grow.
This whole thing was me just wondering why a person who makes most of their income from investments should pay a lot less in taxes (percentage wise) than someone who has a job and while I understand what you were saying about it basically being an incentive by the government to invest I was trying to point out that there are ways to invest where there is very little or no risk, yet you can still take advantage of the lower rates.
