Clearly you have not been out in the world long enough to appreciate the difference between living on 30k vs. 1.5 mil. The person leaving with 1.5 mil will have no problem paying their bills. They would have no problem if they only left the table with 1mil. The $5000 taken from the lower earner may result in them not paying rent and being evicted from their apartment. Hoarding wealth is reprehensible. The whole reason the 1% are not taxed more is because of the foolish idea that they will stimulate the economy and the wealth will trickle down. We've tried that for 30 years and it's clear that philosophy has failed. The solution is to make their contribution to the economy a lawful requirement. |
Hoarding wealth is reprehensible, but taking money from somebody's earnings by force isn't? Explain that to me please.
And I'll concede that I don't understand the exact tax process. |

You want the benefits and privileges of living free in an open market? You pay your dues. You make 100x more than the average American? You pay 100x more taxes. End of story. |
You can't just say words. Explain to me why it's perfectly reasonable to take a higher percentage of money off wealthy people?

These aren't just words. Contributing to the system that makes your life so good is a RESPONSIBILITY. One that the poor have no choice over and one that the rich are constantly trying to get out of. |

The other thing is that the wealthy have the means to find loopholes so that they do not have to pay their fair share. Again, Trump being a prime example. |
