121. Hardly.
Edited on Thu Jun-08-06 02:17 PM by K-W
The idea that those who benefit the most from society should give a higher percentage back to society has nothing whatsoever to do with the redistribution of wealth, and that is the concept our system is based upon, not redistribution.

Some redistribution does happen in the government, but most tax money is used to fuel corporate profits, most of the wealth is redistributed right back to the wealthy.
