I am against student loan repayments. A plumber should not be paying for your gender studies degree.

    Considering the rich pay the most taxes. Why shouldn’t they get a cut?

    The rich do pay their fair share as I’ve cited many times. I talk about spending cuts all the time.

      Not only do the rich not pay the most taxes (especially when measured as a percentage of their total income), they definitely shouldn’t get a tax cut because they clearly benefit the most from the system that enables them to earn so much and succeed so much. As they clearly benefit the most from the system, and the labor provided by it, clearly makes logical sense that they pay the most back into it.

      And you certainly haven’t cited anything with regards to your claims with me.

        As measured of their total income. I’d like to see a cite otherwise. 50% of tax payers don’t even pay taxes. The top 5% pays around 90%

        I’ve cited numerous times on here. I can cite again if you really think everyone else is paying more taxes.
