We need the rich to pay their fair share so we can invest in our people and infrastructure etc etc. Do you need a diagram? Trickle down does not work proven many times....
What makes you think you know what a fair share even is? Who decides what a fair share is are those in power of our federal government. Not you, not me, only the collective voters who put those people in office. And actually, fair means equal. If I pay 200 dollars in federal taxes, so should a multi-billionaire. That's what's fair.
If you go to McDonald's for a big mack combo, you pay $6.25. If Donald Trump goes to get a big mack combo, he pays $6.25. If I get gasoline this week, I'll be paying $2.09 a gallon. If Mr Richy Rich goes to get gasoline on the same day at my gas station, he's going to pay $2.09 per gallon. Trump nor Mr Rich don't pay ten times more than you or I for items they buy.
