"Very progressive"...

But "paying your fair share" is a wonderful sound bite that invites division, resentment, bitterness, envy and jealousy............ So dems will gladly use this lie to get sheep to vote for them.

What few of these candidates acknowledge is how progressive the current tax code really is. Recent data produced by Treasury’s Office of Tax Analysis shows that not only is the income tax very progressive, but so too is the overall tax system when we include payroll taxes, corporate income taxes, and various excise taxes.
