1) in NYC 5000 people out of 8.4 million pay 50% of all city taxes

2) in California 150,000 pay 50% of state taxes

3) in America the top 1% pay 40% of all federal taxes.

No other country rips off the rich like we do in America but ,sadly, the joke is on us because when you take incentive and capital from your most productive citizens and give to your least productive, ie., liberal bureaucrats and free loaders, everyone suffers in a poor economy whose heart has been cut out.

Dangerous times when people group together to demand more pay rather than work harder.

Bitcoin is full of hustlers though. Love that shit!

Gotta say I agree with OP. Flat tax is the only fair way. I thought we wanted a free market economy but yet will punish the hell out of the achievers. I am not rich but I do well and I hate what I have to pay now. Its no wonder why companies have to move companies out of the country and also choose not to live in the US as their "primary" residence.

I doubt if there is any country which imposes a flat tax rate.  Smiley

Have you considered the fact that if everyone followed your shitty logic slavery would still be legal?

That is not actually true. When unions are formed the market is distorted as the price of labor is artificially increased, and the demand of labor is artificially decreased as people who do not want to join a union will not work for a union company that does not have right-to-work laws.

If a company is not paying high enough wages then they will not be able to attract employees to work for them and would not be able to fill customer orders

this video explains alot about our economy and how it is broke down in classes and how having and not having money changes people...
i believe alot of this video not entirely true to the entire rich population, but just because someone drives a nicer car or has a bigger bank account does not make them more valuable than any other human... I feel more sorry for the people who spend their lives as slaves to money... if you have alot of money remember to stay humble and dont look down on the less fortunate.  And NO not everyone can do what this other person did and make millions, because not everyone has the same physical/mental/social capabilities as the next which is what makes the human race such a wide spread different on so many different levels... never let money go to your head you cant take it with you when you leave....
