I just wanna point out a basic fact here...........Farming is tough and it's a 365/7 kinda job.
That's 168 hours a week.
I happen to think 20% of anyone's labor/income should be more than enough for any Govt in existence.
Do you realize that's over 33 Hours a week for a farmer?
I don't even work that much myself per week But some of you feel it's still not enough to demand from others?

Anyone working 168 hrs a week would be dead inside a fortnight.
20% is pitifully low for a maximum tax rate.
I think maybe 65% as a top rate … just for rich bastards though.

You really think so? If the average person works 5 days a week..........you feel a full 1 of those days should go to taxes?
Spoken like someone who has no fear whatsoever of becoming wealthy.

For those on average wages, I think 1.5 or 2 days is fair.

Jesus! I just can never agree with that kinda thinking Good day! My father loved Paul Harvey, listened all the time. And get pissed when I made fun of him. I could do his voice perfectly then add the pauses and the ad plugs

I used to hear him on American Forces Network.. I could pick it up in Scotland. It was good to listen to the quirky American news stories!

For those on average wages, I think 1.5 or 2 days is fair. I can see that if enough of that is going to his social security, health insurance, and other insurances, and most of the rest is going to actual programs that actually help everyone, like roads, clean water, police, fire fighting, public safety, health care for all, feeding the hungry, education, free balanced lunches for kids who attend school. He shouldn't have to pay taxes for arts and other special interests.

You gotta remember, some of our posters live in UHC countries and they'll be damned if they'll ever let that go.

I see 20% as the most you should expect from the wealthy
15% from the middle class, however that gets defined these days
and 10% for the lower class
And the most important part of the equation is that nobody gets a 'refund' higher than what they've actually paid In.
