i understood your post perfectly and think you made some good arguments.
your graph really needs to extend out to the real limits of wealth and income. that would be what, upwards of 50 billion? the significance of that being, a billionaire isn’t sweating campaign contributions.
consider as well, what these guys are talking about with the tax code; the innumerable loopholes, evasion schemes and tax shelters that the current byzantine system allows. a “simple” tax code is farthest from what *those guys* want.
“start” a home based business? as far as i could tell, your business had to have income for you to be able to take deductions. making random deductions on your own for the hell of it is called “fraud”. we bitch about the fraudsters signing liar loans, yeah?
