“The GOP should respond by proposing a constitutional amendment that limits the Government to a single tax rate that get applied equally to all citizens.”
Totally absurd.
We can’t all be doctors and lawyers.
At least half of us must take work paid at below the median rate.
At least 25% must take the jobs in the lower compensation quartile.
I live on about $5,000 a year.
I can’t get by on $3,000/year.
A surgeon that makes $1.2 million/year can get by on $700,000/year after tax.
A CEO paid $35 million/year can get by on $1 million/year.
No NOT absurd. It is call equal treatment under the law.
I think you are posting on the wrong board. Were you looking for DU or Huffing?
So you can live on $3k a year and:
“A CEO paid $35 million/year can get by on $1 million/year.”
What the hell has that got to do with how people should be taxed?
Why don’t you just say everything people make above $3k a year just goes straight to the government? People don’t “need” any more than that.
