OK, I’ll bite.
Since the top 10 percent of earners in this country pay something like 76 percent of federal income tax already, and the bottom half of earns pay about 3 1/2 percent of income taxes, how much more do you and your fellow socialists er, I’m sorry, I mean liberals, think “rich” people should have to pay? 90 percent? 98 percent?
Well, since the top 10% own more than 90% of the wealth, I’ll be happy if we just make it proportional.
Here’s a question for you: Given that the bottom half of the population already have to decide between putting food on the table or buying medicine, how much more do you expect them to pay? 10% of a million dollars is still more than 97% of $15000.
