The guy making $300,000 gets taxed at a much higher rate than 25%, just to point that out.
That's great. What does that have to do with anything?
Where's your cutoff point between what is "fair" and what isn't? Is it "fair" to take 25% from a guy making $150,000 but who has two sets of elderly parents and inlaws to support, along with two kids in college, and a wife with MS - but not fair to take 25% from the single guy with no kids and healthy parents, who is making $35,000 a year and still living with mom and dad?
I thought it was obvious that there are different circumstances that require different amounts.
And why is it "fair" to take money from the working middle class and redistribute it, in the form of a tax "refund" (a refund of money that they never even paid!) to people who could work full time or in a job that paid more, but decide not to?
Ah, the old "I don't want my money going to lazy people". Way to assume everyone who needs government help is lazy.
