And ther the ideologue nonsense comes out.
Wake up to reality... The idea you can generate comparable revenues via a flat tax is a flat out lie. The math doesn’t work.
In 1970 the top 1% of income earners made about 7% if the total income. Today it’s around 20%... The continued increase of wealth and earnings away from the masses and toward a smaller and smaller percentage of the population is not some liberal fairy tail, it’s hard and fast reality...
And if it continues, eventually the entire system will be brought down... And you want to see communism, wait until you reach a point where the average person is watching their children starve, while the upper classes live in exuberance. What do you thing brings about communism?
Simple the failure of wealth and capital to move throughout a society... For decades a small percentage of folks have systematically been extracting this nations wealth, through tax, trade and means for the purpose of padding their own pockets and weakening this nation.
Communism isn’t the result that comes from a working capitalist society where capital and wealth are moving throughout society, it comes as a result of those with large amounts of capital killing to goose that lays the golden egg by refusing to allow that capital distrubution.. This eventually leads to economic unrest, political upheaval and an overthrow not only of the political system but the economic system as well.
We have been heading down a very dangerous road for quite a while in the US, and the western world as a whole... The failure to recognize that the traditional flow of wealth throughout society is not functioning as it should, and hasn’t for a long time now, is probably one of the largest long term threats to our society is to be beyond naive.
In 1955ish the CEO of GM total cash compensation about 40 times that of a typical GM line worker... Today the CEOs cash compensation is over 200 times that of the typical line worker... The goose that lays the golden egg is being strangled, and it’s strangling is being justified by fools
Oh goody....now you want to dictate what certain people are allowed to earn
Your nonsense is anything but free markets or capitalism
