Why is a deduction for a rich person is any less valid than a deduction for a poor person.

I can see why not actually paying the tax bill is an issue, as with the OP, but if I have a deduction for XYZ, why is it bad if I use it?

The deduction is there for a reason, so either complain that it needs to be changed or don't, but don't treat it like these people are in the same boat as people who just don't file or don't send a cheque.
