"The idea that a worker should spend 2 of potentially 8 hours each day merely earning the cost of travel to/from work is economicinsanity. This is even worse for any of the "xero hours" workers who are becoming a majority of the 'service sector" workforce. "Some workers pay $15.00 per trip for their daily commute to NYC. $30.00 a day. (Martz Bus from Pennsylvania) "Bottom line, the "standard of living" in the US has been eroding for all but a few specific segments of the society" Yup, ever since Obama took over. "Either the overly rich will share voluntarily or we will revisit previous violent restructuring of national economies--never a pleasant business." Most of the rich do share in very many venues. But if government raises the taxes too high, the rich will simply leave. They leave New York State, they can leave the United States. You see corporations doing that already. The top 5% of earners pay 90% of federal taxes; the bottom 50% pay less that 1% of the taxes. LION PLAN FOR TAXES: 0 - 70,000 $ = 0% tax 70,000 - 1,000,000 = 15% tax 1,000,000 - 4,000,000 = 20% tax > 4,000,000 = 25 % tax There are NO EXEMPTIONS OR DEDUCTIONS of any sort whatsoever for anyone.
