  1. you cant think very deep can you? if you think its fair that someone like warren buffett should be able to only have to pay as much tax as a grandma on ss there is little value in dabating with you.

    I almost agree with this statement.
    If we could only agree to remove the word "excess".
    Everybody should pay some tax.

  3. And 'excess' for you is always the guy one step ahead of you no matter where you are in the chain.

    Warren would pay more tax because he is able to spend more than grandma.
    Come on, Free, you can think deeper than that.

  7. geeze. is it that hard for you. warren wouldnt have to if he didnt want to and there would be no way to make him. if everyone shifted behavior to warrens way of thinking no revenue to run the government.

    Please go to page 5 and do a search on the words "eats/takes a shit".
    Good luck figuring this out.

  10. geeze are you that dense? say consumption taxes for eating and taking a shit are 1000 a year. if warren decides he wants to live frugally and spend nothing extra that year and his total tax bill is $1000 what precentage of his income is it?
    now look at granny. she earns 12000 a year through ss. she has to eat and take a shit too and spends the same $1000. what precentage of her income is that?
