C) I was refering to income. Over 90% of the wealth belongs to something like 20% of the people.

There is no reason anyone regardless of income should have to pay a higher or lower percentage of the money they earn to the government. The government should have to budget and spend wisely just like the rest of us.

Income tax exists for the purpose of taxing the dollar instead of the individual. If everyone were taxed at the same rate the government's wealth would fluctuate with employment rate, and with out sourcing, illegals working, and non-taxable career choices (like prostitutes and drug dealers) that would cause for a fairly poor (as in non-wealthy) government. Especially so as those trends increase.
