Whereas the Poor are not taxed at all and rely on the Rich to give them the lifestyle they so drastically deserve.......lets put more of them on the Plantation where they can be taken care of instead of making them self reliant and productive, educated members of society. Become Rich and you can be undertaxed too...to the tune of the top 10 percent of income earners pay 71% of all income taxes. according to reported numbers from 2018.
And the bottom half pay no taxes, while the bottom 40% actually RECEIVE money for the IRS. The Feds spend 20% of the GDP with state & local spending adding to that. This retards economic growth, growth that can be taxed.
The ones with the most to lose are the easiest to control.
Problem is the rich are drastically undertaxed.
Correct. There is also always more poor than rich so that helps as well
