If you're referring to me as "rich people worshipping", you're sadly mistaken. All I'm pointing out is, people scream "tax the rich!" like they don't already. Again, proportionally, they pay a lot more for relatively the same services from the government, if not even less since they probably pay for better private services.
Are we saying it's not fair that high earners make so much? Who determines that? A free market and competition. If a company deems a CEO is worth $10M a year, should the government be intervening and tell the company no they aren't?
