oh... one of THOSE posts
George makes a million dollars a year, owns his company, works 60 hours a week, and is single.
Fred gets 20,000 a year, works 20 hours a week, has a family, and is an entry level employee
They both want membership into an association that provides services they both desire.
Should George be required to pay the 2,000 a year for both of them?
Well I'm guessing you said no... its obvious right?
Yet in today's society george is required to pay 40% of his income to receive the same level of service, whether desired or undesired while Fred pays 0 dollars a year for the same services if not more. Is that interesting or is it just me?
yes I'm talking about taxes...
Now I am not saying taxes are a waste and unethical necessarily, but I am just trying to bring up a point of view.
Any hotheads out there feel free comment. Especially if you said George should pay for Fred's membership! They'd be much appreciated.
