Who the hell am I? Why, I am the Supreme Dictator of The United States, that's who! What a silly question.
So, what you are telling me is that if you were offered a promotion that would double your pay, and push you into a higher tax bracket, that you would refuse the promotion, because the higher taxes would be a disincentive?
SC asserts that the rich already pay a disproportionately high percentage of taxes.
You tell me that big taxes are a disincentive to work to become rich. Clearly, one of the two is incorrect.
