I'm not in tech and I'm not making nearly the salaries that most of you guys are making- I'm paying 40% of my checks in taxes.

So yeah, if you're making double what I'm making, maybe pay in a bit more. What's so crazy about that?

Roads and bridges are not bought with tax percentages, they are bought with tax dollars. Somebody making twice as much as you paying the same tax rate is paying twice as much tax as you.

Somebody making twice as much as me can afford to pay more than twice as much as me in taxes and still make more money than me. Money has diminishing returns anyways.

This is how tax brackets work. The system is already in place. Tuning the numbers is what we seemingly can't agree on.

I don't know why you downvoted me- I'm in favor of tiers.
