“get on with the business of drawing the line that fairly defines how we will do this”
where would you draw that line?
could you elaborate?
Here's where part of that line is drawn today:
If your taxable income is less than $31k, you are 50% of taxpayers, you pay 13% of your taxable income as tax and you provide 3% of the total tax burden.
If your taxable income is more than $365k, you are 1% of taxpayers, you pay 21% of your taxable income as tax and you provide 40% of the total tax burden.
We ALREADY have a very progressive tax system that takes from the wealthy and gives to the poor. But that was not my point.
My point was that given this already existing form of socialism in our current government, why don't we make it completely fair by also giving that rich top 1% who pulls 40% of the tax load, a 40% share of the voting rights?
REPRESENTATION EQUIVALENT TO TAXATION!
