With all due respect, the majority of people I’ve known who had to work 2-3 jobs were very, very poor. The wealthiest people I’ve known had to do the least amount of work, and what work they did do was much more pleasant than what most poor people do for a living.
Have to agree with Brian on this one. A progressive income tax is the “fairest” tax (IMHO).[/quote]
So is it fair to tax the poor guy who work 3 jobs more than another poor guy that only work 1 job? Assuming because he works 3 jobs, it bumps him up to the next tax bracket.
BTW, you took the extreme cases (very poor and very wealthy). What about the middle class who work 2-3 jobs?
