"Everyone should pay the same % for their tax " Not in this country. People who think like that need to move to Somalia. Here's what our 2 best Republican presidents had to say about that. Revenue Act of 1862 The Revenue Act of 1862 (July 1, 1862, Ch. 119, 12 Stat. 432), was a bill passed by the United States Congress as an attempt to help fund the American Civil War. The act was signed into law by President Abraham Lincoln on July 1, 1862. The act established the office of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, a department in charge of the collection of taxes, as well as levied excise taxes on the majority of items consumed and traded in the United States. The act also introduced the United States’ first progressive tax with the intent of raising millions of dollars for the Union. en.wikipedia.org No man should receive a dollar unless that dollar has been fairly earned. Every dollar received should represent a dollar’s worth of service rendered — not gambling in stocks, but service rendered. The really big fortune, the swollen fortune, by the mere fact of its size acquires qualities which differentiate it in kind as well as in degree from what is possessed by men of relatively small means. Therefore, I believe in a graduated income tax on big fortunes, and in another tax which is far more easily collected and far more effective — a graduated inheritance tax on big fortunes, properly safeguarded against evasion, and increasing rapidly in amount with the size of the estate. teachingamericanhistory.org "Anything else is stealing sir." LMAO. Ayn Rand bullshit. No, anything else is pure America.
