Tax is raised via a percentage of GDP, not population numbers. And everyone costs the country money, some make enough to repay that figure, others don't make enough to cover their costs. |
Cost more because they can't use cheap labor and have to pay decent wages.
As far as the 20vs 1 argument.. what you are overlooking is those 20 buy more cars, more gas, more big macs than the one person. This is why power in numbers is superior to the one rich guy..
