That statement isn’t quite true. It’s not necessary that the tax burden has to be unfair on either end of the spectrum. The fact is, though, that people by and large are in favor of trying to “take down the man” largely out of spite - he has, I want, I can’t get, therefore take it away from him so that we’re both equal.

Spite? I think it’s about balancing the budget. And it certainly shouldn’t be on the backs of who can least afford it.
