Sacrifice is for the little people

Oh we cannot finance health care reform by having the rich pay slightly more taxes, they, after all are so completely responsible and morale thanks to the blessings of "free market capitalism" with the added feature of tax payer (other tax payers) bailing them out.

Observe the blessings of the system in action:

Wall Street's biggest banks are setting aside billions of dollars more to pay their executives and other employees just months after these firms were rescued with a taxpayer bailout, renewing questions about compensation practices in the aftermath of the financial crisis.

How dare we think of taxing such awesome people slightly more.
