eXero said:You didn't cite a source, therefore you could have made it up.Not going to research something that I don't even know is true.
And you're arguing for the sake of arguing. Stop.
eXero said:Not that post. Dang dude learn to read.

Anyways, Romney is a smart business man. Why does it matter if he only paid 14% in taxes?
Also, he donated his fathers inheritance.

That's awesome! He donated some money to charity! He must be a socialist! He spreads wealth to the poor!
It's a problem because he isn't paying his fair share. He earned 14 million dollars and paid 14%. People who earn $8,000 - $34,000 a year pay 15%. Explain how that is fair at all.

From what you just said, then how would it be fair for people who make more to have to pay more? That would be hypocritical.

That's how the world works. The more you make, the more you pay.
No one needs 20 million dollars to live on. When your income is higher so is your disposable income. If he paid 40% his life wouldn't be any worse.

Oh, obviously they would pay more. But it should be the same percent, that is what I meant. That is your definition of fair. Everyone pays the same percent.

Here is a quote that is separate from the link above:
"If people need any more concrete explanation of this, start with the staff of life, a loaf of bread. The simplest thing; the poorest man must have it. Well, there are 151 taxes now in the price of a loaf of bread — it accounts for more than half the cost of a loaf of bread. It begins with the first tax, on the farmer that raised the wheat. Any simpleton can understand that if that farmer cannot get enough money for his wheat, to pay the property tax on his farm, he can’t be a farmer. He loses his farm. And so it is with the fellow who pays a driver’s license and a gasoline tax to drive the truckload of wheat to the mill, the miller who has to pay everything from social security tax, business license, everything else. He has to make his living over and above those costs. So they all wind up in that loaf of bread. Now an egg isn’t far behind and nobody had to make that. There’s a hundred taxes in an egg by the time it gets to market and you know the chicken didn’t put them there!" - Ronald Reagan
Also, I never states that it would be 15% for everyone. I was just saying by what YOU said, that it would only be fair if everyone paid the same percent.
