Flat tax is the right thing to do.
Here is a little example for all you.
This is for all those who bitch about the "rich" getting all the breaks. It also shows you the bullshit behind the democrat arguement.
How Taxes Work....
Let's put tax cuts in terms everyone can understand.
Suppose that every day, ten men go out for dinner. The bill for all ten
comes to $100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it
would go something like this:
The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing;
The fifth would pay $1;
The sixth would pay $3;
The seventh $7;
The eighth $12;
The ninth $18;
and the tenth man (the richest) would pay $59. That's what they decided
to do. The ten men ate dinner in the restaurant every day and seemed
quite happy with the arrangement-until one day, the owner threw them a
curve (in tax language a Tax Cut).
"Since you are all such good customers," he said, "I'm going to reduce
the cost of your daily meal by $20." So now dinner for the ten only
cost
$80.00.
The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes. So
the first four men were unaffected. They would still eat for free. But
what about the other six-the paying customers? How could they divvy up
the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his "fair share?" The six
men realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtracted
that from everybody's share, Then the fifth man (who was paying $1) and
the sixth man (who was paying $3) would end up being PAID to eat their
meal. So the restaurant owner suggested that it would be fair to reduce
each man's bill by roughly the same amount, and he proceeded to work
out
the amounts each should pay.
And so the fifth man paid nothing;
The sixth pitched in $2;
The seventh paid $5;
The eighth paid $9;
The ninth paid $12
Leaving the tenth man with a bill of $52 instead of his earlier $59.
Each of the six was better off than before. And the first four
continued
to eat for free. But once outside the restaurant, the men began to
compare their savings. "I only got a dollar out of the $20," declared
the sixth man, but he, (pointing to the tenth) got $7!".
"Yeah, that's right," exclaimed the fifth man, "I only saved a dollar,
too, ........It's unfair that he got seven times more than me!".
That's true!" shouted the seventh man, why should he get $7 back when I
got only $2?" The wealthy get all the breaks!".
Wait a minute," yelled the first four men in unison, "We didn't get
anything at all. The system exploits the poor!"
So, the nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up. The next night
he
didn't show up for dinner, so the nine sat down and ate without him.
But
when it came time to pay the bill, they discovered, a little late what
was very important. They were FIFTY-TWO DOLLARS short of paying the
bill!
Imagine that!
And that, boys and girls, journalists and college instructors, is how
the tax system works. The people who pay the highest taxes get the most
benefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for being
wealthy, and they just may not show up at the table anymore.
Where would that leave the rest?
Unfortunately, most taxing authorities anywhere cannot seem to grasp
this rather straight-forward logic!
