    With a progressive tax everyone is subject to the exact same tax rates. I would pay the same percentage for income over a million that Elon Musk would pay. And he would pay the same percentage on the first $50,000 that I would pay. It is the same, in all cases, the definition of uniform.

    The real problem with your argument is the logic of it suggests that a flat tax would also be unconstitutional. Because if the tax rate is 10% and I make $10 and you make $100 then you’re paying more. You’d make more and you’d pay more which you are currently defining as not uniform.

    So if a flat tax is unconstitutional and a progressive tax in unconstitutional, kinda makes you wonder why they bothered to make taxes constitutional. If I didn’t know any better, I’d say you’re just wrong.

    Progressive tax is unequal treatment under the law just like what you claim is happening to minorities. You are dumb.

    He hasn't read it - it's too long for a tweet, especially after you finish typing RACIST a few times to get attention
