That is not at all what I was proposing. I do feel that everyone should pay
something (many don't today) and that a graduated tax is probably what is
fairer, however 50% of the population paying less than 5% of the income tax
load
is not fair, just as the top 10% paying nearly 70% of all income tax collected
is not fair. So, I'd add some tax on the lower end and decrease the rate at
the upper end.
I would not have responded to this had what I said not be misrepresented.
Olympus content: I'm still having an absolute blast with my e-1. Have
probably captured 160 images in the last two days while walking through the
patio,
look at the moon, waiting for a meeting . . .
