    Have you ever looked into who pays what in taxes? Or do you just repeat what the leftist media tell you? The top 10% of wage earners in this country (neither know nor care about other countries) pay almost 50% of the income tax revenue. How is this not paying their fair share? Do they use 47.3% of the government services? Conversely, the bottom 50% of wage earners pay less than 12% of the income tax revenue and receive more than that in benefits (almost 50% of the workers in this country pay no taxes at all, many of these are also recipients of welfare in some of its many forms).

        Liberals feel entitled. They think the world owes them something. The world doesn't owe them shit.

              The problem with conservatives is they believe everyone is like them.
              Just because liberals believe the wealthy should pay their taxes, doesn't mean they want it for themselves. Countries don't run on thoughts and prayers, and roads and bridges don't fix themselves. So, if the group of people with most of the money are hoarding it or sending it off shore, the bridges and roads still need to be fixed. So, that money has to be borrowed, causing out of control national debt.

                  Jeez. Current tax laws are already skewed against lower income people. Now you want to use a sales tax, that already targets lower income people, to operate a government on?

                    What a simple mind you have taxes are based on what you make.

                    Guess what dude the bigger your house the more you pay in property taxes.

                    Guess what dude the bigger your car the more your pay in car insurance

                      Do either of you pay more for the same item than a lower income person would? For anything, anywhere? If not then why do you think the same should apply to paying more for government (which already takes too much, it's not a revenue problem, it's a spending problem).

                        Thus the statement about paying the same rate no matter what the item. I've said it before, your reading comprehension is lacking.

                          However your simple plan works on paper but not in the real world


                          Is this your first or second day on planet Earth

                          Pretty Hilarious now your want to go to same system that Canada has? Awesome see if your Republicans will go for that. Free healthcare for everyone

                            Where did I ever say anything about healthcare? A progressive income tax is wrong on so many levels that your socialist brain will never comprehend it. Any tax system that punishes success and rewards failure (through wealth transfer from the wealthy to the poor) is inherently unfair to both. Unfair to the wealthy because they are forced to pay for things they don't get and unfair to the poor because it trains them that the government is their sugar daddy and will take care of them.

                              Let's take your example of fair
                              School taxes should you have to pay if you don't have a child? Should you pay based on how many children you have?

                              You pay for a Fire Department I never had a fire is that fair?

                              You pay for a Police department I never had to call them is that fair?

                              You Republicans like to class people so a you see a rich person as successful and a poor person as unsuccessful.

                              Apparently you think poor person is getting a government handout .

                              Suggest you watch the Movie it's a wonderful life you may learn something

                                And this luxury yacht the billionaire is buying. Do you think he is buying it in the US? No, he's buying off shore, thus, no tax paid. That luxury car, direct from manufacturer, no tax paid. That's why your scheme won't work.
