Comparing different schools of economic thought absolutely relates to a discussion about rational choice and fairness.
> Communism is not relevant just because we're talking about progressive taxation and that you think is simply shows you're too biased to have an intelligent conversation.
Too biased? In what direction? Have you even been able to ascertain what my position is?
> Your arrogance is sickening. You're a kid, still in college, and you're acting like no one else has heard of history, grow up and learn to engage like an adult. Have some thoughts of your own.
Do you know me? Yet you decide to attack me. Here's a few fun facts about me: I'm not a kid, I'm 30 and have been married for 4 years, have already had a successful career and am changing pace for awhile, and I'm in university because I want to be.
What I know about you - most of your replies in this thread have been one or two liners about progressiveness, with the words 'marginal utility' occasionally thrown in.
> No one is here for a history lesson from a kid who screams communism and socialism every time tax policy is brought up.
Again, just 1 question: What do you think my opinion on taxes is?
