Why? Progressive tax rates are much more fair and result in living wages for more people. Well, except when all the loopholes are there for the extremely wealthy. Like in the US.

So that we can pay more and the rich get taxed less. Yup..sounds like a republican plan to me.

You could be rich too if you quit thinking of "the rich" as a different species and went out and made some fucking money.

Fuck mediocrity. Fuck fat people. Fuck poor people.

A consumption tax is the only fair tax for everyone. Rich people spend money, they get taxed, poor people don't spend so they pay a lot less. Thats fair. Eat beenie weenies, pay little, the lobster tails and rib eyes are going to cost you. Drive a compact beater car or have a Rolls Royce. See how it works?
