I think that the tax system is really backwards. The marginal tax rate for the highest income bracket has been reduced something like 55% over the last 50 years. Yet the poor people keep getting nickel and dimed to death, paying tax on cars when they buy, and when they sell, and each year, and in the gas. Then paying tax on cigarettes to an absurd level. Renting their single family homes from the government at an absurd property tax rate.
The tax system is so backwards it is stupid. People who make 10 million a year SHOULD be taxed at 90%, because they will still have a surplus of money after that! People who don't make enough to own a trailerable boat, should not be taxed this way and that way. Alas, we live in a fascist country, so the rich get their way with their illusory power and lobbyists. It is so stupid.
