as a group there are far more people on the lower earning tier than on the top tier so the lower tier gets more free government services as a gruop because we all know the bottom 50% of earners pay less taxes than the top 10% as a groupno the poor get more servicesBut does everyone get the same amount of services? No
It's like going into a restaurant and everyone pays the same to eat. Yet one person gets a great meal, and someone else gets rubbish.
but hey if you want to go to an a la carte government service menu I'm all for it because it would cut my taxes
No, they don't.
You think with a menu you'd cut taxes? Some might, but the rich certainly wouldn't.
so the people who pay ZERO income tax don't get more from the government than someone in the 39.6% bracket
sorry not buying it
That's not what I said. There are people who get more from the government than they put in. However I wasn't talking about individuals. I was talking about people as a group.
Potentially. Then again Trump managed to get $900 million out of New York State govt, millions out of Chicago, probably millions out of New Jersey and Florida. Then there's his not paying federal taxes. How many poor people would it take to get the money just one rich person managed to squeeze out of government?
