Of course it does. Work harder and pay more. Someone has to pay for the leeches of society. It’s by the politician design. Make more pay more, Trump needs to push flat tax next term.
Hear hear! Had a disagreement with a left of centre friend who was ranting about taxes, soaking the “rich” the “greedy rich clutching on to all the money” and that they should pay more etc.
I replied that IM considered “rich” compared to some in the world. That the “rich” do pay more, because the more you earn, the more you pay. Even on a flat tax, because well.... that’s how percentages WORK?! That I paid more in income tax than the human I was dating at the time was earning, full time, and how was that fair? So I bust my arse, working 35, 50, 60 hours a week, and the more successful and harder I work, the more the government punishes me and takes off me?
Flat tax, now.
Next thing they will be taxing the air.
Oh.... wait...they did that already (carbon tax). If carbon tax really was as legit and as dangerous as they say it is, why haven’t the gov fitted everyone up with mandated personal necklace mouth Co2 monitors!?

Carbon tax won’t ever be enacted because it will impact the virtue signaling Hollywood pedos and their private jets
It was enacted up here in Canada. Hilarity ensued as everything spiked up in price.
