Two excellent reasons to OPPOSE gay marriage in the UK

RE: Two excellent reasons to OPPOSE gay marriage in the UK
Apparently, Divi Tiberio, you fail to see the irony in this comment of yours.

Quote:I simply don't understand how anyone can think that an unequal society is a good society. Please explain it to me.

Quote:In other words, although the incomes grow by orders of magnitude, human needs (food, water, shelter, heating, medical care) do not. So all that extra money left over after our basic needs are taken care of, which is normally spent on luxury items, can be tapped safely without worrying about the physical wellbeing of the higher earner. They can afford it.

This does not justify excessively taxing the rich just because they are rich, and just because they have lots of "unnecessary" money. But it does mean that increasing taxes on the rich is more reasonable than increasing taxes on the poor, other things equal.
