It seems we're not going to agree again Joe

In your argument, the top 1% own 21% of the wealth but pay over 30% over the taxes. Is that fair

The top 10% owning 53% of the wealth leaving 47% to the 90% left, that gives me something to aspire to, not to be jealous of Why isn't it fair, should all the wealth be distributed evenly Should the govenor of the Bank of England be paid the same as a labourer
