It doesn't? Who appointed you master definer?
Who appointed YOU?
If you have a shred of intellectual honesty, you'll have to agree that the idea that rich people should pay a higer tax rate than poor people is only 'fair' by someone's arbitrary made-up definition of what 'fair' is.
Thus far, you have yet to exhibit that honesty.
I for one am not surprised.
You'll noice he didn't actualy respond when I posted the definition of fair.
What is NOT fair is for people whose wallets will not feel the negative impact deciding how much THEY want to sock it to people they want to bleed even more -and have the balls to call that "fair" when in reality it is tyranny of whatever group of FELLOW CITIZENS who have been deemed by the liberal extremists to be the newest "enemies of the state". And in this case, they are "enemies" deserving of our scorn, hatred, envy and greed -for the horrible crime of not sucking at life and being successful. Listen to these liberal MORONS who think it isn't enough that nearly HALF of all income earners pay NOTHING! This same scenario has been played out too many times to pretend if it is done one more time, the outcome will be something different.
Do not kid yourself, what liberals want, desire and strive for, ALWAYS HAVE AND ALWAYS WILL -is to develop a strong parasitic class carefully indoctrinated to believe they are ENTITLED to the fruits of labor done by someone else. They are carefully indoctrinated to believe the odds are already stacked against them, so WHY BOTHER -not when they can just lay claim to what someone else did instead. They reward FAILURE, they encourage FAILURE, they discourage hard work, they discourage and punish success as undesirable and SHAMEFUL -they encourage people to despise the successful but to covet what they have without earning it for themselves. Look how many liberal extremists just on this thread think Romney's wealth is shameful -instead of proof the man has sound economic judgment and knows how to increase and grow WEALTH -while Obama only knows how to increase and grow the ranks of the poor. They use code words designed to make the parasites feel more comfortable with this self-destructive mentality -like "fair share", as if someone died and made them dictator to decide what is "fair". And of course they insist parasites should be the ones to decide what is "fair" even while pretending the fact nearly half the population pays nothing is "fair". These are people who will NEVER EVER be satisfied with how much they are bleeding others. They never are in ANY country where they target the successful and it continues until they are destroyed -and in spite of the fact the process will end up devastating and harming those on the bottom the most.
Encouraging a parasitic mentality in this country where half the population believes they are ENTITLED to what others have worked and earned for themselves while exempting themselves from also footing the bills for the government services THEY intend to take and utilize - will lead to the same outcome they got in Greece. Eventually you will even run out of other people's money too. Then you never ending greedy, envious liberals with your leech mentality will react the same way they did by throwing violent temper tantrums like that magically makes money appear again.
When did you ever know parasites to stop their feeding frenzy in the understanding if they bleed their victim dry, THEY die too? Parasites should NEVER be in a position to decide how much THEY will bleed their host because they will never, EVER put the welfare of their hosts before their own naked greed.
FACT:
In the industrialized world, the US has THE most progressive tax rate IN THE WORLD. Yet the radical extremists in this country still whine it isn't "fair" they don't get to confiscate even MORE from the other half. It is NEVER enough, it will never be enough for the radical extremists who actually seek to destroy the wealth of this nation. Do NOT kid yourself, destroying the wealth of any nation is done like THIS.
The wealth of the nation does NOT come from government -it comes from WE THE PEOPLE. When people are deprived of the benefit of what they earned, they stop bothering to earn it, it means the wealth of the nation DECREASES which means government gets poorer as well. And that won't bother the liberal extremists whatsoever. They will just target the next economic class for destruction. They always do. The only economic class they want to see grow is the very bottom -which is why the ranks of the poor have SWELLED under Obama and is the only economic class to have grown since Obama took office. Exactly as liberalism intended to see happen -because growing the ranks of the poor is seen as increasing the power of radical extremist liberals. They want more have-nots -not fewer and their agenda is intended to grow their ranks. This IS the radical extremist game plan -destroy the wealth of the nation which means destroying the top economic class which ALWAYS results in increasing the rate of poverty because class warfare causes the most significant economic destruction to those who can afford it the least -those already on the bottom. They increase the ranks of the poor and the entire time they do it, they set themselves up as representing and "defending" and the "savior" of the poor -the poor THEY created! It wildly succeeded under Obama which is why our rate of poverty is the highest seen in nearly FIFTY YEARS! And he wants another term to do a hell of a lot more of it. Obama and his radical extremist lackeys can **** OFF -and they can take their "fair share" BULLSHIT with them.
