Could you tell us how this works??? How can "those who can pay more opt out"....???? How does "reducing taxes benefit the rich at the expense of the poor"....???? How much does one have to earn where you are to be labeled "poor"......how much tax do they pay? How much does one have to earn to be considered "rich"....? What percentage of their income do they pay in taxes? It's well to the right of the overall European mark. Cries of 'deregulate' are frequently code for 'go to lowest common denominator, and those who can pay more opt out' (e.g., health, education, employee rights). Or code for 'big business before small or individual business', e.g. 'deregulation' of agriculture - which always seems to end with big businesses hogging lots of subsidy for intensive farming. Reducing taxes - again, benefitting the rich at the expense of the poor - is another RW touch. Sure, I'd benefit hugely from similar - but this doesn't make it right
