No moral justification for a graduated income tax structure
On 09/21/2012 12:31 AM, Why are people so cruel wrote:
"George Plimpton" wrote in message ... None whatever. There is absolutely no valid moral reason why people should have to pay higher and higher rates of tax on additional increments of income. Depends if you are a tax accountant and a tax lawyer, in which case your business model is based upon scaring the higher paid to use your services to avoid paying the incremental taxes. Countries that have progressive tax regimes have more tax accountants per capita - which is good for the economy as it spreads the wealth around more than taxing the wealthy and giving that money to the poor. Big problem is that they dont give a rat's arse about the middle income earners who dont earn enough to warrant paying a tax accountant and therefore pay more tax as a percentage than the wealthy do, and end up subsidising the ultra rich and the ultra poor. And here's the moral reason: When someone driving at 50 mph doubles his speed to 100 mph, it requires eight times the power. So when someone making $50/hr increases that to $100/hr, he should pay eight times the taxes. It's a Law of Nature. |

(B) You're stuck on part (A). Things are never as simple as that. The power required to go 50 mph and 100 mph is composed of two parts. The rolling resistance and the air resistance. The air resistance goes up by the cube of the speed. So to go 100 mph requires 8 times as much power as is required to go 50 mph. However the force required for rolling resistance only goes up by the speed. So the power to go 100 mph because of rolling resistance is only double that required to go 50 mph. So more data is required to give an accurate answer. What is the coefficient of drag and what is the rolling resistance coefficient? And that will only get you the actual force. To figure gasoline consumption you need to know more about the engine. And I can not see any reason tax rate should be related to power required to drive. So I would agree. You are a silly rabbit.

... Wrong some more. Add your "double" rolling resistance to your "cubed" air resistance and now you're well past 8 times as much power. Problem-solving isn't one of your strengths, eh? Rolling resistance SUBTRACTS from the total needed to go 50, which is the SUM of both. If each contributes 1/2 of the total R at 50 MPH then you need 2 * 0.5R + 8 * 0.5R = 5R at 100 MPH. |

OK, minutiae man. It's an airplane, there is no rolling resistance. But the original post by you said " driving ". Wrong some more. Add your "double" rolling resistance to your "cubed" air resistance and now you're well past 8 times as much power. It is obvious you are not an engineer. The CD doesn't matter. Whatever it is, it gets squared. But inless you know the Coef of drag and the Coef of rolling resistance , you can not compute how much of the power is used to over come the wind resistance and how much is used to over come the rolling resistance. Take physics when you get to high school. So I would agree. *You are a silly rabbit. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *Cheers |

tax will promote economic growth, and bring in more total revenue. I agree, no moral justification.... Christopher A. Young Learn more about Jesus www.lds.org .. |

The correct and proper function of government *excludes* providing the basic goods and services of life to deadbeat vermin who are too ****ing lazy to do it for themselves: housing, food, clothing, transportation. Read our Constitution. There is no mention of school lunches, food stamps, Section 8 housing payments, farm subsidies, medical care provision, or any of that massive redistribution schemes in which government at all levels engages. The *intent* of the founders was to create an extremely limited government - basically, one that provided national defense, a little bit of essential infrastructure, a court system, and basic protection of social order - and the Constitution they wrote reflects that. By *NO* means did the founders intend government to be a vehicle to level life's outcomes for citizens. The founders saw *NO* role for government to redistribute wealth or income. You no they didn't because there's nothing in the Constitution about it - the Constitution is *THE* defining document of both the structure and the intent of government. There is a vague statement about "general welfare", but no interpretation of the Constitution has ever held that that meant a power to redistribute wealth and income, or to promote the *specific* welfare of politically favored classes like farmers or deadbeat vermin who will vote universally for the party that promises them the softest life. Define the duties of government in the most severely restricted role imaginable, then impose a low flat tax just sufficient to fund those legitimate activities. That is good and just.

Plimpton: Silly Rabbit wrote: A fine analogy, It is invalid. You know it. Everyone knows it. Nature enthusiast Tom Del Rosso recoils from physics analogies too. "Your physics analogy assumes the government is more natural than people are... The government is not natural." He then, unwittingly, hands me a chainsaw to cut the limb you two sit on. You know your ****witted analogy is invalid. It's bull****. Dell Rosso's analogy. "And when people get the hourly wage they agreed to, with the right to go elsewhere, that's natural too." 'So the rich should also agree to a graduated income tax structure, because they're free to go elsewhere.' Bad analogy, because a graduated tax *isn't* a wage, and the rich didn't agree to it. You're ****ed. |

Bull****. There is no more question about it, or **** off. You don't know what the **** you're talking about, on anything. Get the **** out of here. It's not about me. Tom Del Rosso knows. It's you. His is worse, but yours is ****. You're ****ed. |

'So the rich should also agree to a graduated income tax structure, because they're free to go elsewhere.' Bad analogy, because a graduated tax *isn't* a wage, _ANALOGY_ , idiot! I don't need to use a graduated tax as an analogy of a graduated tax. This is about MONEY. !00% Economics here, an excellent analogy indeed. and the rich didn't agree to it. *Should* agree, not *was* agreed. You're ****ed. No, your argument is ****ed. You can't logically back it up, without demonstrating that all possible justifications are immoral. An impossible task. But I needed just ONE example... already done. My work is done. |

stupid **** lied:
Prof. Plimpton patiently elaborated: On 9/23/2012 11:44 PM, Silly Rabbit wrote: "And when people get the hourly wage they agreed to, with the right to go elsewhere, that's natural too." 'So the rich should also agree to a graduated income tax structure, because they're free to go elsewhere.' Bad analogy, because a graduated tax *isn't* a wage, _ANALOGY_ , A ****** analogy, you ****tard. There has to be a fundamental similarity between the elements for the analogy to hold. In this case, there is a fundamental *OPPOSITION* of the elements, you ****ing ****. A tax is the complete *OPPOSITE* of a wage, and the people victimized by the tax didn't agree to it. Your analogy is ****ed. You are ****ed. You are not up to doing this. |

Bad analogy, because a graduated tax *isn't* a wage, _ANALOGY_ , similarity between the elements for the analogy to hold. In this case, Yes! The similarity is, obviously, INCOME. Wages before taxes, taxes after wages, it makes no difference how you view it. Net Income is what matters, to the loafing rich guy and the toiling laborer. |

A wage is something the person receives; a tax is something the person gives up. The analogy is bull****: proved beyond rational dispute. |
