Willie - yes any tax reduction plan will obviously benefit the person who
earns more than one who earns less. The point is to try to make a plan
that at least attempts to help those who need it most, rather than one
that barely helps the worst off, and hugely benefits the top.
MJ
Why?
Why not treat ALL Citizens EQUALLY?
Why should one individual pay MORE or LESS than another?
Thew
Because EQUAL is not the same as EQUITABLE.
MJ
Hmmm ...
eq�ui�ty
The state, quality, or ideal of being just, impartial, and fair.
Something that is just, impartial, and fair.
eq�ui�ta�ble
Marked by or having equity; just and impartial.
One is HAVING the other. Oh well.

A family that struggles to feed and clothe its children has
more need for tax relief than someone with 3 billion dollars
in the bank. Because a person with 3 billion dollars can
afford to support the country s/he is living in to a greater
extent and not suffer, than the person who has to choose
between chicken for dinner or shoes for their children.
MJ
This has NOTHING to do with equity, equitable or equal.
Why do you believe the Person with 3 billion dollars should
be FORCED to take responsibility for the 'family' that chose
to have children it could not afford?
Perhaps the TAX BURDEN is simply to great.
My questions remains unaddressed:
Why not treat ALL Citizens EQUALLY?
Why should one individual pay MORE or LESS than another?

Probably not many realize how the rapid centralization of government
in America has fostered a kind of organized pauperism. The big
industrial states contribute most of the Federal revenues and the
bureaucracy distributes it in the pauper states wherever it will do
the most good in a political way. The same thing takes place within
the states themselves. In fostering pauperism it also by necessary
consequence fosters corruption. ... All this is due to the iniquitous
theory of taxation with which this country has been so thoroughly
indoctrinated -- that a man should be taxed according to his ability
to pay, instead of according to the value of the privileges he obtains
from government. -- Albert Jay Nock
