I never understand these people. The first time I ever heard this was Larry King on a late night radio talk show. We all should be taxed more. Okay, fine, if you want to be taxed even more, write a check. You can write a check for more than you owe. The IRS will be happy. Why does every one elses taxes have to go up to satisfy you?
Mostly the people that call for higher taxes are rich enough that they won’t miss the money and make most of their money from capital gains that are in tax sheltered funds.
This is how you know it is a liberal/leftist ploy - they believe in mandatory everything. Voluntary doesn’t suit their agenda.
