When only the so-called rich "contribute", then it is punishment. Why isn't EVERYONE contributing to the general welfare of the entire nation? Especially those that TAKE from it the most.

most middleclass people pay less than 5%.... a rich (investment) guy pays atleast 14%

I make 60k (lower middleclass) and pay ZERO federal income tax

I cannot undertake to lay my finger on that article of the Constitution which granted a right to Congress of expending, on objects of benevolence, the money of their constituents." - James Madison
