The part where you've suggested a 1% tax hike on the rich on about 20 different issues. I know you went to Kansas public schools, but 20x1=20.
Freedom is a right. Owning slaves was not a right. It was a "privilege". I use that term losely because I'm not sure you can call such a heinous act a privilege. If it impedes on someone else's life, it is not a right IMO.
I think I have only suggested it on two issues. Maybe three.
OK so would the rich not paying taxes 'impede' on someone's chance of going to college? If we look at as a right, then yeah.
First off, it's not a right. Secondly, college is already free for the poor, so there is no need to tax the rich more in this instance.
As I said earlier, the average cost of a community college is $3,300. The average PELL grant award is $3,541. And if a kid truly cares about getting an education, there are 1,000s of scholarships that they could apply for.
This is just another attempt for the liberals to take away from the "evil" rich.
