But to say that because someone works harder, or is smarter...or hell, just luckier than most other people they should have to pay a higher %, thats just nuts. They are already paying far, far more in real dollars than the 99% below them
I think the most fair system is one in which the poor are punished for being poor, and the rich rewarded for being rich. That way, efficiency and hard work can flourish, while sloth and incompetence are snuffed out. And I mean literally snuffed out; the poor should starve to death. Nobody is entitled to food or shelter; if you can't make it in this world, then you aren't needed. It is a cancer of the mind to think that these individuals should be propped up, enabling their ability to reproduce.

2 Thessalonians 3:10-12:
Quote:
For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: If anyone will not work, neither shall he eat. For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies. Now those who are such we command and exhort through our Lord Jesus Christ that they work in quietness and eat their own bread.
