“It is call equal treatment under the law.”

Progressive taxation is equal treatment under the law.

If I was to own a mansion, I would pay the property taxes associated with the mansion, which are determined based on market valuation.

If you think otherwise, file suit to revoke Amendment XVI ratifications as being violative of Amendment XIV.

We’ve always had unequal property taxation in the United States.

When did property taxes enter the picture ...?

I thought everything being talked about to this point was income taxes.

I agree with T.P. Pole in #38 ...

Are you sure that you aren't looking for Democratic Underground or Huffington Post?

Progressive taxation is equal treatment under the law. ..... Nope, it is not.

A single tax rate is equal treatment. “Progressive” taxation is the most regressive and anti-growth form of taxation that exists.
