You are not suggesting 'fair' you are suggesting those with more loot to toss around should pay more.
Like I said, I have higher discrecionary income, yet I am right at the poverty level, you are sugesting that higher discretionary income means higher burden of taxes, sorry I do not feel that way, I have 'spare' loot (meaning truthfully I do not ask the govt for money) because I sacrifice and work hard, not because I am 'rich' and or lucky.
I do not think saying people with more money to spare should pay more for taxes makes any sense in a just way. It sounds more like jelousy. "you have lots so I want to take it away." Actually sounds a bit communist, and I for one prefer to earn what I recieve.
