Well, shouldn't the rich at least have to pay fees/fines/penalties relative to their income then?
Currently - Pat who makes $50,000 per year parks illegally and gets a ticket for $50.00. Terry who makes $5,000,000 per year parks illegally and gets a ticket for $50.00. But what if the ticket was based on a percentage of 0.1% rather then a fixed amount? If based on 0.1% - Pat who makes $50,000 per year parks illegally and gets a ticket for $50.00. Terry who makes $5,000,000 per year parks illegally and gets a ticket for $5,000.00. Imagine the possibilities - 1. Terry would try a little harder not to park illegally. 2. Our Cities, States, and Country would receive huge increases of revenue. 3. The USA may be able to go to a flat tax for income of %10 for EVERYONE (Yes, Including the rich). -- Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
