Many people are uglier than others too. Some people get more tinder matches than others. Do we also throw acid on the more attractive people to ensure a more equitable society for the relatively ugly men/women? Why only the equity of money but not other things on the Maslow's hierarchy of needs? Taxation in unethical, and immoral to the people who work hard. Some people compensate for being physically ugly by having more money. I work with my body using my brain. It's my body, my choice. Just like no one deserves to be raped, you cannot force people to give away gains of their work.

Please follow HN guidelines- your comment appears vitriol As for taxes, I recommend this Harvard video series on ethics: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBdfcR-8hEY&t=13s&ab_channel=HarvardUniversity https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBdfcR-8hEY&t=13s&ab_channel... Note: Taxes appear way after several videos though...

>Why only the equity of money but not other things on the Maslow's hierarchy of needs? For the same reason you'd probably rather be paid with money than with Tinder matches or beauty products. Money is the general equivalent in modern societies, so its hard to believe you really can't see why it's so special. No philosopher has argued for equality of looks, or even equality of resources. This seems like a straw man you've set up just to attack the idea of taxation. >I work with my body using my brain. It's my body, my choice. Just like no one deserves to be raped, you cannot force people to give away gains of their work. This argument makes several philosophical assumptions that may not be justified. See the Stanford Encyclopaedia of Philosophy on this: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/justice-distributive/ https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/justice-distributive/ The same moral reasoning that dictates the state should not interfere in matters of speech extends to other spheres of life to give other outcomes e.g. prosperity, rather than only freedom.
