I never understood how one group of people could be taxed at a higher rate than others to begin with. I thought there was an equal protection clause in the Constitution?
I say the Republicans should up the ante. They should suggest a tax rate of 98% on everyone making over Hussein’s magic $250K number.
Two things could happen. 1) The Demcrats blink and lose the whole “soak the rich” argument or 2)revolution ensues (funded by the wealthy, of course).
They should suggest a tax rate of 5% on everyone making over $20k. Everyone must pay.
Fairness is not...... being poor and participating in American society.
I really like that idea. The Democrats’ entire wealth envy argument would collapse.
