The saying, "The rich get richer and the poor get poorer" holds alot more truth than the goverment wants to believe it does. Seriously, our taxation system favors those with a higher income. When the goverment collects taxes it takes only a small percent of what the rich make but a high percent of what the poor make. Some argue that the rich still pay the most money in taxes if you look at the ammount alone sent to the goverment. That is true but why do you think that is? It's because the money they send is nothing to them. They can afford that and laugh at those who cant. The gap between the wealthiest citizens and the poor is increasing to fast and things should start to even out sooner.
Our taxation system needs to be changed because the same people are having all the success every year and its like the poor doesn't even have a chance at recovery. There is a strong political movement across the nation known as Fairtax and it says that the taxation system should just be eliminated all together and everyone can take home their gross pay. I believe this is a great idea and I have thought of that for a long time now but now there's finally people who agree with me.
