Should tax on entertainers be more than on public servants?
If all the Hollywood types and sports figures pay 70% of their income, wouldn't that help California get out of debt? Maybe we should tack on another 20% if they own property outside the USA?
More people would volunteer for public service, like police and firefighters, if they were taxed less, wouldn't they? Also they put their lives on the line for us everyday, this would be a small compensation for that.
