Thanks for the response. Would you say that people in the top 1% can pay 50% of their wealth? I mean if the number it started at began at say 150k would it make a difference?
I respect that it's a point of principle for yourself on this. I suppose I'm a bit more pragmatic, I'd look at how much money is required to run decent services and try to collect that in as fair a way as possible, and put more of the burden onto incomes that are as far away from people's essential earning as possible. However it doesn't make me right, it's just a different philosophical approach.
I'm in a bit of a rush atm mate but will respond to both your posts later when I've had chance to go through them
