“There is the general belief that the corporation income tax is a tax on the "rich" and on the "fat cats." But with pension funds owning 30% of American large business-and soon to own 50%-the corporation income tax, in effect, eases the load on those in top income brackets and penalizes the beneficiaries of pension funds.” WisdomPoliticsBeliefEconomyRichEffectsTaxesCatIncomeFatsEaseCorporationsLiberalismFundLoadIncome TaxPensionBeneficiariesBrackets Author:Peter Drucker
“High tax rates in the upper income brackets allow politicians to win votes with class warfare rhetoric, painting their opponents as defenders of the rich. Meanwhile, the same politicians can win donations from the rich by creating tax loopholes that can keep the rich from actually paying those higher tax rates - or perhaps any taxes at all. What is worse than class warfare is phony class warfare. Slippery talk about 'fairness' is at the heart of this fraud by politicians seeking to squander more of the nation's resources.” HeartWinningNationsClassRichPaintingHigherPoliticianTaxesCreatingResourcesVoteRateSeekingIncomeOpponentsFraudFairnessWarfareRhetoricDefendersPhonySlipperyDonationClass WarfareLoopholesBracketsHigh Taxes Author:Thomas Sowell

“Suggestion of the Communist Manifesto was 'abolition of all right of inheritance.' Looking backward upon the past history of estate taxes, we have to realize that they more and more have approached the goal set by Marx.

They are measures of expropriation.” PastGoalRealizingTaxesHeightCommunistLooking BackEstatesSuggestionsInheritanceQualifiedAbolitionManifestosBracketsCommunist ManifestoEstate Taxes Author:Ludwig von Mises
“What the Democrats do with income inequality is punish the people at the top of whatever bracket we're talking about. If it's income, they want to raise taxes.
