    Wow that's just real fair considering how many of the cities resources they use to run their business. That's the whole fucking problem with this country. Everybody wants all of the resources to be provided by the government, but nobody wants to pay for it.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Ah okay. I suppose that actually sounds more realistic.

    Wrong..unless you have some particular version of a plan involving a flat tax you're referring to.

    Generally "flat tax" is used to refer to the tax rate.

    How taxable income is calculated is the problem, not the fact that there are different percentages used...at least as far as how complicated it is and why high earners sometimes pay so little in taxes.

    There is way too little information presented here to determine whether it's "fair" or not.

    How can the Dodgers owners pay less than zero?
