What do you mean about the 80 vs 40 hrs/wk? That working more will (naturally) get you more money, so you pay more taxes? Or some kind of "hard-worker" tax where they tax you based directly on effort? I haven't heard any of these proposals.
I was referring to the fact that worker A at Burger King making $5/hour for 40 hours shouldn't have to pay a higher tax rate on the extra hours than on the first 20.
Its simply crazy unfair that if spend the second 20 hours watching tv, you pay less for your government services AND you pay less per hour.
Personally, I'd prefer if we all paid for the government we used, rather than dumping the costs off on people who are more productive or lucky.
We really do not have the right to other people's property, not matter how much they make.
If we want something we haven't earned, we should try an ancient non-violent method of obtaining something. Its called "asking".
