Skeeter,

I never understood what is fair about the governent stealing from one person to give to someone else, but maybe you can answer this simple question. John works 40 hours a week and makes $50k a year, Mary works two jobs for a total of 80 hours a week and $100k. Why should Mary pay more than twice as much tax as John? I can't even understand why she shouldn't pay the same as John, or maybe even less than John because she is obviously more productive and the greater good of society benefits from her actions. Should someone be rewarded for working harder?
