You crack me up strangeflute. I liked Buttberry, made me chuckle. But seriously, I'm not saying that we shouldn't pay higher taxes, I'm saying we already pay a large percentage of our salaries to taxes. I worked my ass off to get where I am and should be rewarded for it. But if I continue to get taxed at ever higher percentages, I won't have much more disposable income than someone making half what I do. Someone who didn't incur $85k in student loans. How is that fair? It is redistribution of wealth, regardless of what Biden says. And it's bullshit in a capitalist society. Plain and simple.
Well, if you won't reject the tax issue on principle, then regardless of "fairness" - other people NEED the money that you earned. How can you refuse? If you accept that they have a right to some of it, they will take it all.
Just because I am certain that unicorns and their complex social strata exist does not mean I believe that you respect my opinion, Merkyl.
I'm not gullible, you know.
