Hey rabbit, you're all about taxing income to make the rich pay more, but when are you going to go after the rich by going after their assets? You know, your party leaders' offshore accounts etc....

Z,
I said having basic needs "far since met."
You said that about income above $200K in a single year. That's not a very high threshold.

That is income that you feel should not be in the hands of the person that earned it, including those who don't always make that much income every year.

Either way, where that threshold is doesn't matter. The fact that you think such a threshold should exist at all is completely absurd, and it proves that you think government should force some standard of income and class egalitarianism upon society.

You ignore the fact that every attempt at an egalitarian society in modern history has ended up in failure.
