"And in light of the very progressive nature of our current tax system, it becomes ever more regressive, relatively speaking."
"You do not think paying $5 million is enough."
You were the one who said that the current system is progressive. I pointed out a legitimate example of an instance in which it clearly is NOT progressive.
Then you criticize me by insinuating that I want the wealthy to pay more taxes. You are the one who has the problem with consistency. You assert (falsely) that the current system is highly progressive, when in fact many Americans are angry that it is in fact REGRESSIVE.
You apparently missed the part of Senator Mack's comments in which he said that, in all the comments he had recieved from the public, not a single person had said that the tax system is fine like it is and that the panel should recommend doing nothing. Apparently you haven't exercised your rights to make the panel aware of your sentiments. You and Louie should enlighten them about what a wonderful tax system we already have and how this whole exercise is a waste of time.
LOL
Anytime anybody ends with LOL I say they aren't worth any more consideration. Your are a fool.
