Only if one presumes (as most liberals do) that the income of Americans is first owned by the federal gvernment, not the citizen.
To a liberal, taxes are a balanced percentage of how much the government LETS YOU KEEP.
To a conservative, taxes are the percentage which the government TAKES FROM YOU.
It is, in a nutshell, the marked difference between liberals and conservatives. Liberals believe that the government is in a better position to make decisions about your personal finances and life. A conservative beleives that they are better served to determine how to run the personal and financial affairs of thier own life.
Want to be a slave? Vote democrat. Liberals complain the most about 'income inequality", yet liberal policy has been the greatest contributing factor to that issue. Democrat policy is designed to create more dependent, poor people, and thus more democrats. Most people, on the other hand, want to be free and financially secure, putting the interests of citizens diametrically opposed to the goals of liberals/democrats.
Witness the liberal enclaves around the US in which there is MASSIVE income inequality: NYC, DC, San Fran, LA, Philly, Baltimore, New Orleans, and Detroit. Liberals have created modern feudal serf systems in these towns.

You're going to have to cite some evidence to make that kind of claim. And I believe you're oversimplifying a fundamental difference between urban and rural communities. And by your logic, the most conservative states and least taxed communities should have the wealthiest citizens, we know that's not true. It's way more complex than that.

Really?
So why is it that the most prosperous cities in the US are conservative and the poorest are liberal cities?
Perhaps it is not "more complex" than that at all. Is it just a conicidence that generations of liberal government have created some of the poorest, least functional cities in the US?
Can anyone dispute this? What happened to the deficit hawks from the republican party?.........
Romney lost.
