Likely.Not necessarily.
That’s generally how loans work.How. You got it back.
When all is said and done, almost every adult American pays about the same effective tax rate, to support a state organized in the class interest of the bourgeoisie.
What if I told you the after tax income of the top 1% is still greater than the after tax income of the bottom 40% ?The top 20% pays 88% of all income taxes.
Seems like more than a "fair share" to me.

Oh I see.That’s generally how loans work.
If you say so.Likely.
Yes that is how math worksWhat if I told you the after tax income of the top 1% is still greater than the after tax income of the bottom 40% ?
No.If you say so.
Regardless, the point remains. Any conclusions drawn about “fair share” etc. that only takes income tax into account (i.e. the TP), is garbage.
That’s how loans are supposed to work.How. You got it back.
“He sat down opposite the treasury and observed how the crowd put money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums. A poor widow also came and put in two small coins worth a few cents. Calling his disciples to himself, he said to them, 'Amen, I say to you, this poor widow put in more than all the other contributors to the treasury. For they have all contributed from their surplus wealth, but she, from her poverty, has contributed all she had, her whole livelihood.”-Mark 12:41-44But not on the same dollar amount. So structurally the wealthier pay more.
And that top 20% makes around 4 times the income of the bottom 80%Yes that is how math works
When the rich establish a state to ensure they will be supported by the rest of us in their indolence, that is an insult to us. When they demand that out of what is left over after their parasitism, we contribute more to the maintenance of their state, that is hubris.Oh I see.
Well, the way I see it...we each have an obligation to pay towards the maintenance of infrastructure, emergency services etc. Higher earners pay more.
None are owed it back.
We each are obliged to aid the neediest. But not the indolent

Nay, education and effort does it. Not politicsAnd that top 20% makes around 4 times the income of the bottom 80%
That's howmathpolitics works.
When the rich establish a state to ensure they will be supported by the rest of us in their indolence, that is an insult to us. When they demand that out of what is left over after their parasitism, we contribute more to the maintenance of their state, that is hubris.
Wrong way to look at it.Nay, education and effort does it. Not politics
No. You're throwing gobbeldy gook to muddy the topic.Wrong way to look at it.
That's just individual musical chairs you're talking about. The system would still be the same regardless of which individuals were where in the stats. That's politics.
I work retail. Among my co-workers are a Harvard graduate, an M.D., and 2 people with Master’s degrees. Our society demands a certain number of people getting jobs with high salaries and a certain number of people working retail jobs.No. You're throwing gobbeldy gook to muddy the topic.
If I study and earn a high salary a result, you do t study a d work a barcode scanner somewhere...that's not musical chairs and politics.. that's you not studying and limiting your own potential.
No it doesn't.I work retail. Among my co-workers are a Harvard graduate, an M.D., and 2 people with Master’s degrees. Our society demands a certain number of people getting jobs with high salaries and a certain number of people working retail jobs.
Sure it does. The so-called “job creators” decide exactly how many people will do exactly how much of each job.No it doesn't.
