That is the question whether total amount or percentage is more
important. IOW, is progressive taxation good or not? A question of
ideology, perhaps?

My personal opinion? I tend towards a flat tax.

What's a flat tax in your opinion? Everyone should pay 9% here and 9%
there? Without regard of minimum living costs?

Yes. Personally, I favor a per-capita tax. That is one AMOUNT, not a single
percentage. Like a movie ticket or a can of jalapeno-flavored chicken
nuggets. One money for all. [Currently, that would be about $15,000 per
person per year]

So how do you deal with people whose income is $14,000 per year?
