Our progressive tax is ANYTHING BUT "FAIR" . It punishes success, it is Robin Hood socialism taking away from those who worked to succeed and handing it over to those who contributed nothing. It rewards failure and laziness at the expense of those that have contributed. How many people do those "rich industrial fascists" employ??? How much do they contribute to charities. And how many are employed by the 47% that pay nothing and live off the government teat?
