Can someone please tell me why the Libs are always screaming about "fairness" for everything, but then turn around and expect unfair taxes on the rich?

MONTANA MOM !

That's not what you said. You said in order to be fair you had to tax "all income".

Then you went on to describe that you thought "wealth" should be taxed. Tax on wealth is an estate tax, not "income tax".

The whole idea has no merit and would never be tolerated.

Hang on a second. The taxes the rich pay go for much more than " helping the poor." I do think tax cuts are helpful to the middle and lower class...as I said..it helps a little. And when you have so little...every little bit helps. But I stand by the fact that it is not supplemental income or a hand out. Lowering the prices of energy and food would help a lot..but since that isn't happenig..a tax cut would be helpful as well. As to why people don't go into the system...pride. They work hard...bring home a check...and still can't make it...and many don't qualify for help anyways.

One states loss is another's gain! It's a shame people don't fully think through the consequences of these things. Don't see it passing though....

So I'm still asking...


How does a graduated income tax help high income earners more than a flat tax?
