You have made several of these foolish posts and then contribute nothing to the ensuing discussion.
I smells me a troll. |

Is this a great country or what!
When I filed my first income tax return from my paper route at 14, the top bracket was 92%. No, that's not a typo. |

Well Ross Perot pays less in taxes because if the government made him pay his share he'd reveal that aliens really did land in Roswell, and that he was their leader.

A great book about tax inequities is Take the Rich off Welfare by Mark Zepezauer:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0896087...ks&v=glance It talks about things like the second mortgage deduction is a larger subsidy to the affluent than the entire budget of HUD. |

The top like 10% of wage earners pay like 70% of the total income tax taken in.... (or something approximately like this) [/ QUOTE ] And what is your point? That is the way numbers work. The way income is distributed, if EVERYBODY paid a flat 10%, you would find that the top 10% of wage earners paid like 70% of the tax. |

I calculated the income tax I would owe on my taxes at the time a few months ago. At that point in time I had 108k in income (after 10k in expense deductions). On that... I owed 46k.
It seemed really screwed up to me at the time. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] |

This whole discussion is skewed with hard number arguments vs. percentages.
