There is only one reason to have a "progressive" tax code. To keep poor people from ever having the opportunity to be rich people. The more they start to make, the more they have to give. A constant supply of poor people is necessary, or no one would need anybody in Washington to give them anything. Then what would the liberals do? We can't have a whole country full of people that can take care of themselves....
I fall smack in the middle, and my boat interest deduction keeps 6 people employed at my marina, several more employed at the bank, several people at my mechanic's shop employed, and many, many, many folks at the various dock bars and restaurants employed. So who's losing because I get a measly couple of bucks back at the end of the year? No one.
Let's try to refrain from personal attacks this time. If you can't use logic and reason, the discussion is over.
