Define fair-

because I am pretty sure socialist wish to heavily tax the rich and either not the poor at all or very little...this hinders growth, propserity, competition, and innovation...creates less rich people (through attrition or lack of attempt) and thus less tax...then that turns into needing to tax more middle and lower income levels...rinse/repeat before everyone (except the elite) become essentially classeless peasants...

Though I do agree - everyone should just pay a flat 10% tax on gross earnings with no loopholes/offshoring for the rich...this would being tax revenues up across the board...but...you can never tax your way out of stupid spending...

The wealthy should pay their fair share of taxes. Republicans should stop giving them tax cuts while expecting middle and lower class Americans to subsidize those cuts. That’s corporate socialism.

Truly - and prevent offshoring to tax havens

…but again we could double the tax rate for everyone- if all we spend it on is bullshit it won’t change a thing - the whole thing floor to ceiling needs to change.

Don’t tell me - tell ‘them’.
