my prevailing theory is the common belief that an investor's money brings in more economic knock-on effects, and the $50k earned by the wage earner is less "powerful". in order to incentivise the investor, they are given a tax break.
this isn't helped by the fact that those in position to make this sort of tax law are also beneficiaries of said law.
