Have you ever read the Communist Manifesto? re:"Progressive tax rates are neither Communism, Socialism, Dadaism, or any other ism. They are simply a way of apportioning taxes."

>>Progressive tax rates are neither Communism Socialism, Dadaism, or any other ism. I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public. You want the government to decide how much everybody earns, and you want them to do it in such a way so that higher earners are taxed to the point where their net earnings equal those of lower wager earners . That's communism - everybody get's the same benefit out of the system irrespective of how much they put into it. Even so, I like you. You remind me of when I was young and stupid.
