Depends what is being taxed. Staples could be excluded, while luxury items taxed more heavily.
By that logic, every poor person becomes so by giving to others. Neither statement is true. They equated being rich with being evil, which is plain stupid and I don't understand why you are defending it.
I agree. I think it has nothing to do with how much a person has and everything with who they choose to be. Unfortunately, stupid communist ideas are very popular on this website. Say "eat the rich" and they will clap.

Quite often they will also learn languages that are very similar (French, Spanish, and Italian), count that as 3 and believe it's always this easy.

That's a good argument. Centrally planned economy is not something I would support. Lots of negative examples from history. However, if the government is doing something (which all governments do, even in capitalist…
