Even though my suggestion is FAR more progressive than the current tax code, you still have parrots like Dung shouting 'it's not progressive enough!' and then he sits back and watches as our current tax code gets more complex and becomes more REGRESSIVE at the top and sighs in relief because the status quo has been maintained.
You crack me up. If we're doing to dream up a best tax plan, and you've acknowledged that yours is a dream, it should be more progressive at the top than your proposal. That isn't a defense of the status quo.
