If you mean growth to enrich people to the point where there's spmething to tax, I’m with you. I suppose I’m just sensitive to the implication that people who have less income are freeloaders because of the income tax situation. there are plenty of taxes such as property taxes and regressive sales taxes that burden less wealthy workers.

Property taxes and sales taxes all go to the state, not the federal government. As far as the federal government goes, those who get goodies from the federal government but pay no income taxes are in fact freeloaders with the exception of social security which is a forced Ponzi scheme.
