I think this statement has one main problem, wealth is not infinite. If you become a millionaire, someone else can't be.drankin said:OK, I did not mean to bring up a the subject of flat tax. My point is that everyone should pay taxes, including the poor. Because, in this country you don't have to be poor if you don't want to be. Unless you are mentally disabled, or in some circumstances physically disabled, you don't have to live in poverty. If I wanted it bad enough, there is no reason I could not become a millionaire. I work hard enough to not be in poverty but I'm too lazy to make the sacrifices in order to be a millionaire. But I could become rich if I wanted to, the opportunity is there.
