No, it makes absolutely no sense at all. It is YOU, that believes in Socialism, by asking people in other states to pay a bigger share to you.
No, the states in which people reside should dictate what race me are paid FIRST and then the feds adjust deductions based on the needs of the individuals within the state. The feds should be FLAT, period, point blank, end of discussion. It is ONLY because of present tax policy at the fed level and this so called tax bill that drives socialism.
The feds should NOT require an immediate confiscation of my salary @ 35% before the state even touches it. Returning MY MONEY back to me through deductions isn’t socialism that’s called grabbing the money stolen that I earned back to my pockets. Sorry Charlie but getting some of my money back is the direct opposite of socialism. Being in the top 5% is a penalty because success is punished.
