That's just stupid. Nobody forces you to be rich. The rich have the moral obligation to pay more than the rest of us. You are not rich. Why do you care? Warren Buffet getting a tax cut or not has NO bearing on your life whatsoever
.
uhm
why do YOU think its stupid
why do YOU condone discrimination
think about it this way
let's use 10% for easy math
if your taxable income is 15,000...your tax would be 1,500 that you pay
if your taxable income is 25,000...your tax would be 2,500 that you pay
if your taxable income is 55,000...your tax would be 5,500 that you pay
if your taxable income is 75,000...your tax would be 7,500 that you pay
if your taxable income is 150,000...your tax would be 15,000 that you pay
if your taxable income is 250,000...your tax would be 25,000 that you pay
if your taxable income is 1,500,000...your tax would be 150,000 that you pay
if your taxable income is 1,500,000,000...your tax would be 150,000,000 that you pay
the '''rich''' would still be paying more, because they earn more...but it would be fair...non-discriminating
why do the fascist liberals continue their discriminating ways???
Without wealth we would all be poor. No employers, no businesses, no malls, no supermarkets, no movies, no pizza, no businesses , no eateries. Nothing. No products, no houses to buy, nothing. nothing, Live in a grass hut and eat tree roots.
Republicans are for the rich and trickle down economy which does not work. The fat cats only get richer, which benefits them. Democrats are for the middle class which is why Republicans hate unions.

Because that person warning the 25,000 a year is going to need that extra 2500 for necessities. If you're making 1.5M, you can afford to take a 30% hit. If you're making 1.5B, you can more than afford to pay up 50%. Flat income tax takes away necessities from the non-rich. The truly rich, which in your example are the millionaires and billionaires, do not have to worry about necessities. They certainly don't need YOU, a peon, to worry about them. They don't care. They can get taxed 50%, and still have money left over for their chauffeur the poor barely have anything, and you wanna take away everything they have and leave them with just their eyes to cry with? Of course you do. It boggles the mind why you want the US to be so much like Russia or Latin America

Quantitative Easing under Obama was the biggest trickle down program ever devised.
