   Just going to barrel ahead with accusations to avoid defending your position on taxation, eh Richard?

   You are so wrapped up with finding narrow definitions to try to dispute me you’ve come to the conclusion that someone can not be punished unless they violate a law?

   I will state my position, again, so maybe, just maybe, you will at least try to understand it instead of trying to intentionally misconstrue parts out of context.

   Taxation is theft (if you don’t take a very narrow definition of theft) because the government takes money involuntarily away from people under the threat of arrest/imprisonment. Taxes are also necessary to fund the government, and some government is necessary for society to operate.

   Did you get all of that or are you going to hyper-focus on the first sentence and reply without context?

   Secondly, taxes and government should both be limited as much as possible. You proposed an 80% tax bracket – which I say is an attempt to punish people for being rich and successful. When I’ve tried to get your view, you have instead repeatedly now attacked my posts and refused to answer.

   So I ask again…according to you, at what point do taxes stop being about funding the government and become punishing wealthy people for the crime/sin/audacity of being successful?

   Nice job taking one sentence out of context and base your entire reply on it. It takes real dedication to willfully ignore the entire context of my post. But hey, the important part is you got a snarky insult in, right?

   Let’s get back to the actual topic. At what point to taxes stop being for the purpose of funding the government and become punishment for being rich? 30%? 50%? 80%? Something else?

   So you repeatedly missed the parts about a simplified sliding tax scale and national sales tax? Or you just wanted to disagree with whatever I said because you need me to be the enemy?

   You have the mindset that anyone, everyone, who doesn’t agree with the main stream left is a maga cultist. And yes, I do see the irony in this.

   I said I agreed with the concept of a sliding tax scale. What I also said is taking 80% is punishment for being rich, not just taxation. Involuntarily taking someone’s money is a definition of theft. Taxation is necessary, but it is also theft. Therefore taxes should be limited to the absolute minimal level possible.

    No, going back to my original point of the tax system needs to be overhauled or replaced. What you said is (once again) trying to put words into my mouth.
