There may be some justification to tax people differently on the portion of their income that is necessary to cover their necessities, but I don't see any real justification on their disposable income. |
This is only the top result during a google search, I'll be honest I don't know the reliability of this one source, but there are many others with numbers in the same area.
Here's the scenario, the Rich make alot of money, but they pay alot more in taxes. It's a common misconception that rich people get tax breaks, and lower percentages and get all the good deals while the little guy suffers. It's simply not true.
The rich people support you, and you all need to be grateful, however the typical American mindset has become "give me, give me, give me!" so you just want to take more. Look at the numbers and realize how damn foolish some of you are and be grateful the tax system isn't fairer, because if it were you'd all be paying more.
