Remember Willie Sutton

"The reason I rob banks is because that's where the money is". The reason we tax the wealthy more is because that's where the money is..What is that so hard to figure out?

Implies taxation is theft.

Remember the rich got the money because our economic system sends more money to the top then is actually earned. CEO's are not 10,000 times smarter then a teacher, they do not work 10,000 harder either. So the money they got paid they never earned.

So we tax the rich more to compensate for the original mistake of them being overpaid.
