Truth is, sure looks like the wealthiest 1% are not paying 42% of all of governments costs, and sure looks like the top 19% are not paying half of governments costs, until that happens they are NOT paying their fair share ... a flat tax can fix that ... Oh, you mean one like this? A tax on *ALL* income no matter where derived. One deduction. Federal poverty level for a family of four and everybody gets that deduction. Have a tax rate of, say 15% and the current poverty level at $24K and we get the following: A person who earns up to $24K, pays nada... A person who earns $50K, pays $3,900 (50-24x15%) A person who earns $100K, pays $11,400 (100-24x15%) A person who earns $500K, pays $71,400 (500-24x15%) A person who earns a million pays $146,400 (1000-24x15%) That do it for you? . . If you add a $1,000 tax to the $50,000 guy he becomes homeless If you add a $1,000 tax to the $1,000,000 guy...he never notices it. That's what's UNFAIR. Nope, what's unfair is YOU expecting OTHERS to pay for what YOU want. The EFFECT on the wealthy taxpayer is nil. The EFFECT on the low income tax payer is catastrophic. Interestingly, no one is asking that $50K guy for that extra grand, but here you are whining that the million dollar guy won't as affected. The problem Democrats will have is that sometime they will run out of other people's money. -- Sleep well tonight....RD (The Sandman) If you woke up this morning.... Don't complain. That's what is unfair. A small increase of tax on a low earner is a huge burden The same increase on a wealthy person is INSIGNIFICANT. No one is asking for the same increase from both parties, you idiot. Besides if the low earner is really a low earner like the 45% who don't pay tax in the first place, how can you increase the tax on them. They still won't reach the AGI that pays taxes. Increasing the tax percentage doesn't do a damn thing to change their AGI. -- Sleep well tonight....RD (The Sandman) If you woke up this morning.... Don't complain. I gave an example of how the same number (dollars) has a different affect on people of different wealth. You didn’t understand it..... OH, I understood it. Just commented that no one is asking for that so it is a canard and little else. -- Sleep well tonight....RD (The Sandman) If you woke up this morning.... Don't complain. |
