Would you please define what is "fair"? That term gets thrown around a lot but is very vague. The top 1% of income earners already pay 50% of the tax. Would you be happy when the top 1% pay 75%? 90%? Or is your only solution communism where there is zero incentive to be productive or innovative bc there is no reward for hard work?
