No, my post was in response to this 12clicks guy suggesting
I don't realize "how little" a 1mil+/year income really is.
And my point was, it makes you very financially comfortable.
And if you truely think that's not much money, then you should
have a great deal of empathy for the familys of teachers and
firemen and nurses making far less than 1/20th of that.
Not all poor people are lazy;
most just work in jobs that society doesnt reward enough.
The point of taxing according to income is that some people
can afford to be taxed while others can barely afford to eat.
This isn't an entirely selfless attitude.
If you want to live in a safe society, you damn well better
make sure everybody can afford to take care of their family.
