True.. but in capitalism, if you earned something, it's yours... if you make two sandwiches for your son, does that mean you have to give one to the community? Why does the same apply to money?
I understand that taxation is necessary. I also understand that people like to keep what they earn. I draw this line at half... and I would draw that same line for the wealthiest (who bend current tax law to pay far less than half) to the poorest, who would recieve a basic income (along with everyone else) to subset the half that they earn and get to keep.
