[QUOTE]Originally posted by Guardian 2000: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [qb] What's funny is that it's the defenders of the uber rich and big corporations that decry "class warfare"- if it's warfare to make the super wealthy pay their fair share, then the super wealthy are winning the war [i]easily.[/i] [/qb][/QUOTE]I'm not defending the uber rich and big corporations, though I like that well-poisoning. I simply think that individual rights don't stop based on how big your bank account is, or how small. I want individual rights for all, applying equally to all. You have no interest in equal rights. There's a flawed philosophical notion that if you steal a dollar from a poor man you've harmed him more than if you steal it from a rich man. That's a foolish idea, because you've stolen the same value from each. That "rich pay their fair share" thing is completely retarded, because the only way to do that is to have everyone do a flat tax, rich and poor alike. This graduated tax system, with something like 40% not paying anything at all, only hurts us all. It will destroy our democratic republic, because as soon as the majority can vote themselves the money and property of a minority then we're on our way to nothing but corruption. And while it's been happening only in little nibbles that slowly increase in size, make no mistake that it's happening more and more [/QB][/QUOTE]
