Everyone should pay an exact equal share, unless you’re saying we are not equal afterall.

If you're talking about a percentage-based flat tax w/closure of loopholes/shelters, I'm inclined to agree.

So, you should pay $20k AND Bill Gates should pay an equal $20k? How generous of you.

If we are equal, then shouldn’t we all pay an equal share? More from some and less from others is a way to make sure we are not equal

A dollar from you is NOT the same as a dollar from Bill Gates, and losing 1% of your income might hurt you more than losing 20% of his income would hurt him.

You're misreading (not a surprise). To use the word "equality" to argue that the poor should give up their necessities to provide the rich with more vanities suggests either massive ignorance or naked-faced evil. I'd like to imagine that you're neither, but ultimately it's up to you.

Should the rich get more from the government since they pay more or should they both get the same from the government?

They already do. And then some.

The richest 5% effectively don't pay any taxes. You know, tax loopholes? When their businesses suffer a loss, it's a tax write-off. Lunch is a tax deduction, because they call it a business lunch. Try pulling that one the next time you pick up a couple of ham sandwiches for you and a coworker during your lunch break..

You ever wonder why Hollywood produces some movies that from start to end, and I mean from the movie poster to tv, you can tell that it's absolute garbage? And then you actually do see this movie and wonder how the heck was it ever made, let alone distributed? Movie companies actually make a certain amount of intentional losers every year. They declare a loss, it's a tax write-off, and it lowers their tax bracket. That's right, they deliberately make a few movies that are designed to be so bad that it will lose them money, because they will actually make more money off of the general loss in the long run.

When Bruce Springsteen or the Kiss or whomever aren't touring or putting out an album, they too suffer a loss in income for that year(s). So the government refunds them enough so they can maintain what would otherwise be their normal income level. They literally get welfare in the realm of millions of dollars for every year that they're not out there making extra bucks.

Hey, Trump is famous for it, remember? So many of his businesses did so badly or outright failed, that he dug a hole that got him exempted from paying taxes for an entire decade. For an entire decade. For an entire decade. Trump. No taxes. An entire decade.

Correct, they aren't.
When someone can throw away $50 million on a wedding like it was a bucket of confetti while others can't afford an egg daily for breakfast, people are not equal at all.

I'm curious, Viki... putting aside the fact that's just rehashing of the "they're eating the dogs, they're eating the cats" lie, what's the relevance?
