what I am saying is that all income should be taxed equally because if you think about it, LABOR is more beneficial to the economy than capital gains, and we have this bizarre system that undertaxes the very rich that makes most of their income through "capital gains" while workers making under 100K get this additional 13K scam called fica which is highly regressive added to their tax that high end workers don't even feel if they are making 1 million+. If wingers were REALLY advocating a FLAT TAX (which of course they are not), they would advocate one tax rate for all income, fica included in that one rate. But of course that true flat tax would result in a huge tax increase for their constituency. Wingers are really stupid people. They have a great deal right now with this highly regressive tax system we have. And yet they still complain. I believe a flat tax is coming and oh, the pain the wingers will cry like stuck pigs but it won't matter.
