Do you see the irony of your statement? Everyone paying the same percentage is exactly fair.
i disagree with your definition of fair
we just have different views on what exactly fair is
Comrade DFarr,
Your class warfare-hatred is readily apparent. You likely believe that poor people are all victims of the evil rich and deserve to be supported by the evil rich.
Taxation is not punishment - the rich do not deserve punishment. We ALL benefit from military protection and so we ALL must pay our share of that cost. That rich person's success has no greater impact on the cost of military than the does the poor man's poverty.

But why do you get to determine how much money a rich person gets to keep? And for all of your complaints regarding offshoring jobs, Americans themselves voted for that with their pocketbooks by demanding low price consumer goods.
