Actually, I'm not suggesting any new tax systems but merely a benchmark for determining if the distribution of the burden of running a community is fairly assessed to all groups. Since the top 1% owns 1/3 of the nation's wealth, they should be paying 33% of the nation's tax income to maintain the nation.

As if that justifies selling ANYTHING to people who cannot pay for them while conning them into thinking they can.

Here again we see the effect of religious thinking. The Invisible Hand of the Free Market, blessings be upon its name, is perfect. If the system failed, it must be the fault of government interference. It couldn't be the fault of the system, which is perfect. The Devil is always to blame. Looks like some foolish "do gooder" liberals tried to help those scummy poor people again who are too lazy to do anything for themselves.
