30 something parrots regurgitate 800 year old tax fables.
Fairness is seldom the reality preached or expected by the hoards of barely educated accountants. In fact, philosophizers and Gurus go insane trying to deal with Fairness.
Yet, self appointed 30 some year olds, having reached the pinnacle of brainwashed and potty bad month status of insensitive and ego elite Parrot Patriot, commence with the usually and standard ritual of Fair Taxes by regurgitating the Articles of Flat Tax, Federal Sales Tax, and the brilliant con game straight line from Self-righteous Vaudeville of "The really poor don't pay any taxes anyway. But maybe they should to be fair."
Do not by into this regurgitated rhetoric from wanna be Lords.
America is the land of opportunity but human and economic ecosystems are pyramids and bell curve statistics. The BEST opportunities falls to the few but could not exist without the masses. With luck and Stars set aside, the more fortune one is blessed with, especially if gained via efforts from education, good parents, and advanced social skills resulting from the land of opportunity training school, the more responsibility the individual has to all those that made their success possible. Only by accepting these responsibilities will the future stability of a free people will endure.
Not withstanding moral or brotherly love or agape love, but just ordinary common sense would mandate that the cost of freedom and future progress should be supported unequally, on a sliding scale based on the ability to pay.
Anyone touting otherwise is not a Patriot but simply a Parrot, a part of the selfish elite of the past war lords of repression and greed.
America, Love it or Leave it.
But don't try to buy it.
