You know what you oppose and will vigorously pursue that opposition even out of context. In that case I am misinterpreting the article as well. I see a holdover thinking from the Clinton-Summers days that attacked those who would dare to acquire wealth. Clinton promised the American people smaller government but look what they got. That kind of thinking allowed tax rates to soar.
Nothing providing the tax rate is fair.
And this is lower than the gross tax rates in most OECD countries. Left-leaning OECD governments would have this pressure removed which would be a terrible shame in that it would subject all citizens to the mercies of tax and spend bureaucrats who believe it is their right to tax you any way they can and spend the money doing what they please. They do it by making tax avoidance and those who would dare to seek wealth out to be something that is terribly wrong.
