@ElSuperHosen I still despise income tax on principal. It is the act of taxing the fruits of their labor, which is rather silly.

@Xylogeist A progressive tax scale is not unfair. It’s just unfairly implemented here. It requires reform without question.

@ElSuperHosen I’m still on the fence about progressive tax. I’m a classic liberal (Chomsky Liberarian) so I tend to be open to such ideals.

@Xylogeist You’re forgetting Koch Industries. (Paul also is not funded by them)

@Xylogeist A progressive tax scale should be scaled to have less impact on the poor than the wealthy, to allow the poor to become wealthy.

@ElSuperHosen Well the rich own both parties now. Regardless of Ron’s stances, at least he isn’t funded by Goldman Sachs (like all others).

@ElSuperHosen Well a flat tax endangers the poor and an escalated tax is completely unfair. Why tax a persons productivity?

@Xylogeist ..GOP demands the rich pay nothing because “then they can create jobs.” Neither approach is fair.

@Xylogeist It is far from the least fair tax. It is just unfairly managed by both parties. Dems expect rich to pay for everything, and…

@ElSuperHosen Well the constitution talks about levying tariffs that are proper (needed). Income tax is not needed, its the least fair tax.
