It's called Communism. That's what the progressive tax system is designed to do -- to eliminate the middle class leaving only 2 classes: the wealthy ruling elite class and the poor working class.

And there is example after example after example worldwide that demonstrates this.

I stand corrected. I had no idea we lived in a communist country.

We live is a country that is moving closer to China's political system as they move closer to ours. When we meet in the middle we'll both have Corporatist Socialism down pat, aka Fascism.

So rich people in China don't pay taxes?

You could move there and find out. By standards in China I bet you would qualify as rich.
