Why raise taxes on people who make more money?  They work for their money too.  If anything, tax them less.

Because why not raise taxes for people who can actually afford to fucking pay them?

They worked hard to get to the point where they're at.  They deserve to stay rich.

Taxes should be even.

However, the fucking rich dont deserve all the tax breaks either.

Oh, and poor people work for their money to, many of them work even harder for their money (both of my parents work 55hrs a week, and I work 10-15 hours a week, yet we are barely breaking even).

Ideally, we would just get rid of income tax, and up the sales tax. No one would feel ripped off then. Rich people have more money to spend, therefor by more things. If they didnt want to pay more in taxes, then they would just have to not buy things.

More sales tax and less income tax would be an economic disaster.

A few states are doing it here. It seems to be working fine.

I have to agree that taxes should be equal.
