To this uninformed mind of the vast right wing unwashed majority, I never could figure out why WORK AND PRODUCTION was taxed! 'Work hard and we'll hold you back; do nothing but take and we'll reward you. Make everybody equal!' Time to get rid of this socialist mindset. This would be very equitable in that all the crooks would pay taxes on their ill-gotten gains (politicians?) when they buy that fur coat for their sugar baby or the diamond necklace for their wife. Purveyors of death (the drug dealers) would be paying tax on every luxury they buy.

Because it suited the purpose of those who proposed it!

The progressive income tax is directly endorsed in the Manifesto of the Communist Party by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels! (scroll to the end of the section in the link and find item #2 on the list!)
