Excluding the physically and mentally disabled, each and everyone of us was born into this earth with the same opportunity and we all have equal development in-utero.
Though some are born with golden spoon, some are born with silver spoon, some are born with this spoon and that spoon, and also, some are born without any spoon, however, we were all given the same brain power at the start line.
Wealth comes as a result of the struggles of a person. The smart and hard work inputted by a person towards what they believe in, is what brought about their wealth.
It will shock you to know that the founder of Facebook and Amazon started from nothing. Thy even paid their workers, while they were unpaid.
There are three basical classification of people when it comes to their financial worth.
The poor, the middle class and, of course, the rich.
The difference between these three classes of people, is not actually the money perse, but is basically the way they think. The way they view things around them.
A rich can take a risk, fall a million times, and then rise again because he tried to view his problems from diverse perspective, and also, took the initiative to make more risky moves, so as to achieve his dreams.
It is not anybody's fault that a person is poor.
Personally, I see it as their lackadaisical attitude, and the lack of the attributes needed to secure, not only secure, but successfully manage the bag.
I understand that there may be spiritual shackles stopping a person from being rich, but then, chains are broken yaknow.
I am not rich, not yet, but with the little I know, I will want the rich to continue living how they live.
In the eyes of the poor, they are not paying tax and should pay tax, but in their eyes, they avoid tax by playing smart.
It is not their fault that the poor are not smart enough to understand the game.
The system is a game, play it.
I would not want them to be taxed more than every other person, because they worked for their wealth.
Just as every other person, they are human. They have all the attributes a human has.
However, the difference is that, they understood the system, played the game of life, took the risk, some of these people fell a hundred times but were resilient enough to come back to their feet, mak more risky moves and they came out successful, after a lot of trial and errors.
I do not think it will be fair to make them pay more tax. It is their wealth. Nobody built it for them. They did by themselves.
No doubt, if he government takes the same task percentage from everyone, regardless of what they earn, they rich will he less affected.
Nobody will benefit from it, but the government, because they are the one getting the money. Haha.
Personally, I don't see this as a dilemma. Like I said, I am not rich, not yet. I equally pay task to the government. However, the only solution to this, is to, learn what the rich know. The have a way that they do it, so the only solution to this is to learn what they know.
This is my entry to the hive learners prompt.
