[QUOTE="BMWMC, post: 5068571, member: 37461"] I do agree on the point that money makes money and poop makes poop. People who add value, and significant value at that, to the economy deserve to be congratulated and incentivized. A progressive tax policy seem to fit the best when we define fairness, "[B][I]in order to form a more perfect union, establish [URL='https://www.docsoffreedom.org/readings/justice-for-all']justice[/URL], insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity".
