If you are still a Republican after what this admnistration and this party have done to the USA then, yes, you are immoral to the core. There is no excuse for starting a war-for-profit on LIES. NONE.
You are missing the entire point on taxation. The ultrawealthy have received more from this country, have more to lose and enjoy more of its resources than the dirt poor. They, therefore, have reason to pay out much more of their income (on a percentage basis) than the dirt poor. This is progressive taxation.
You are missing the entire point on wealth creation. As Bill Gates' father says, it takes a village to raise a millionaire. The organization we call the US of A allows some individuals to make outsized resource gains. That is reality.
You have it in your head, erroneously, that the system of government in this country has nothing to do with an individual becoming wealthy. You ignore the patent system, the police, the infrastructure, the educational system, the government grant system, copyright and tradmark protection, the courts, etc. which promote and reinforce the 'rights' of some individuals to gain (and keep) more than others. That is reality.
Take a look at the AMT if you think taxation is fair in this country. |
