You used the word “think” and associated it with liberals.
Math is most certainly not their friends, and they most certainly do not think in any traditional sense.
Perhaps Einstein has libs in mind when he stated, “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results”.
To paraphrase the old CCR song, when you ask a Liberal what the “fair share” of taxes for the rich is, their only answer is “more, more, more.”
The top 50% pay 100% of the taxes
The bottom 50% make 13% of the income, but pay 2.7% of the tax.
So one group has a tax to income ratio of 2:1
The other has a income to tax ratio of about 5:1
Ratio wise, income to tax, the rich pay almost 10x more than the poor.
I don’t think that song was about “liberals.”
