[QUOTE="Lurker66, post: 2569214, member: 24459"] Im not arguing that the current income tax is fair or good. Just that the "fair" tax aint. If you produce it, it has to be bought. To be bought, consumers must have money to "blow". Our economy is flourishing because of our need for excess "stuff". If we only bought what we needed, the economy would crash. And the wealthy would stay wealthy, the midfle will slip lower and the poor, poorer. You should read "the Culture Industry" by Theodor Adorno. He kinda Explains this whole consumer of goods in a way I cant on a forum. The middle class and poor numbers grow bigger every day at a huge rate. And condume more stuff, While the Rich grows slow and consumes at a slower rate. Thats whats giving us this huge gap between the haves and have nots. [/QUOTE]
