which part of the following sentence excluded gas tax sales tax etc.:

"""When you add up all of the various taxes, and look at the effective tax rates, it is clear the tax system is already pretty progressive."""

oh, but you don't want to include excise tax because it works against your lie.
typical liberal nonsense.
"we need to count gas and sales tax because it helps my argument but no way to we count a tax that works against my argument"


intelligent people understand the meaning of "all" and "effective"

liberals seem to have trouble with those words.
