Are there more rich people in Somalia or "France/Portugal/Brazil/Sweden".
It's almost like everyone including rich people benefit from a society where government is properly funded.
It's also seems properly funded governments generate more capable people(see incomes over 6 fig).
Obviously you can over-do it, but parent compared taxes to protection money from the mafia and that is ridiculous.
Also people who are “passionate about taxes” think that rich people benefit more from a properly funded society then more poor people, so they should pay more. So as the parent says "what a stupid argument"
Also, of course we are my passionate about high taxes. We are passionate about the society that high taxes provide.
All of your arguments seen quite disengenious.

Are there more rich people in the US or those countries? > It's almost like everyone including rich people benefit from a society where government is properly funded. It's also seems properly funded governments generate more capable people(see incomes over 6 fig). It’s almost like the high taxation levels of France/Sweden/Portugal/etc have no advantage over the US for “everyone benefitting”, at least not monetarily. > All of your arguments seen quite disengenious. I don’t think you’re using that word correctly or you’re not understanding. I’m being quite genuine when I say it’s ridiculous to “be a fan of taxation” and when most people say that they are just generally a fan of some level of government services. You need to discuss which government services you like socialized to have any meaningful discussion. Otherwise it’s just “I love the government taking money from the people”.
