If the government had in the tax code a provision allowing you to be exempt from taxes because your name starts with “K,” there is zero argument for not repealing that provision. It unfairly shifts the burden of paying taxes from you to other people.
The fairness of the tax code and how high taxes are are two separate issues. We need to both make it more fair and lower taxes. Lowering taxes has to come with lowering spending though. Making the tax code more fair can come at any time.
that is a fair argument to make, and I agree with it 100%
But I never asked YOU to pay for anything.
You do see where it was the language you used and NOT the argument you were making that is offensive, now don’t you?
