That's why we have more than half the U.S. Citizens paying NO INCOME TAX AT ALL, while the productive ones are FORCED to pay for handouts. If you wanna tax "income", then start taxing ALL Welfare, Medicaid, Food Stamps, EBT's, etc., and let's ALL pay our "Fair and Equal Share".
I wish someday the “Progressive Tax”, ie, the more you make, the higher the Tax Rate, was found Un-Constitutional from the fact that it is not “Applied Equally” to all.
This was the point where it is no longer the Government by the people but Government versus the people.
