I was simply addressing your malformed analogy of the family.
Quote:
NOT because "I make more" than them. And how do people magically "make more" than others? By working harder, by saving money, by making years and years of tough choices. As a reward for this, you say they "should be taxed more." Why? WHY should they "be taxed more" than somone who does the bare minimum? Why would we reward laziness and punish hard work? That is a terrible idea! Think of what the outcome of that would be. As children we earn an allowance. As adults we earn a paycheck. The harder we work, the more we do and the better we do, the more we earn. That is the system and it makes good logical sense.
