Then it comes time for the check and the group of 100 people decide to pay the $100 dollar check. Since that first guy took 37 slices, rather than pay $37 (you know, since that would be equal) they decide that he's better off financially than the other 99 people, so he should pay oh I dunno, $80. Ya that does sound about like our society, your right
Where does $100 come into it?? Now if you are saying that it was $1.00 a slice the person who took 37 slices should only have to pay $37.00 not your $80....
I think you missed the guy's point (assuming it's a guy). He is saying that people expect the rich to pay way more than "normal" people just because they are rich, but that is just as unfair in reality.
While just as unfair, still more realistic than taxing the lower class who cant afford to take that kind of financial burden. If you have 3 guys, 1 has 1 grape, the second guy has 2 grapes, and the last guy has no grapes, should the first guy cut his one grape in half to carry the weight or should the second guy give up his second grape. Its not fair but be realistic.
That guy should give his extra grape to the last one so he won't starve but money IS different. People give money to homeless people all of the time and the people that don't probably just think that they're just gunna go spend it on drugs and alcohol which is understandable but it's not always the case. Anyway just because some one has more money doesn't mean that they should have to just give it to people who don't. Your life is your own responsibility. It is your responsibility to care for yourself. You shouldn't have rely on the government or the higher class to help make sure that you get enough food to eat. Yes, everything is over priced but you shouldn't just stop supporting yourself since other people can do it for you. People are rich because they work for it (most people anyway). You shouldn't get punished by having to pay more taxes simply because you worked harder to get more money to support yourself. I don't think that the rich should have to pay more taxes than others.
Sometimes when i see a comment page like this one, full of guests. I wonder if its just the same lonely person. Commenting over and over again arguing with themselves. Go make accounts!!!
Now imagine you're a corporation. You fucked around, screwed up the economy, destroyed the housing market, and lost it all. Your govt lackeys decide to give you all 100 slices. That's our society.
No our society is someone paying for half of the pizza, getting half, and then people who didn't pay for it get mad and demand slices they didn't pay for. Worse, it's grown to the point where people think "I get a slice whether I pay or not so I just don't need to pay" THAT'S OUR SOCIETY
