A recent newspaper article highlighted a group of millionaires who went to Capitol Hill and lobbied for a tax increase on themselves.
It's well documented the top earners generally pay the most taxes already. But this group wants them all to pay more.
My question though is, why don't these people just pull out their checkbook and write an additional check to the IRS? If they don't feel they are paying enough, then just pay more!
It seems many people don't just want to spend their own dollars, but they want to reach in everyone else's pockets too. Sorry, that isn't their choice.
But again, there is nothing stopping them from digging deeper into their own pockets! (But for some reason, they rarely do...)
