Thank you for voting against the Progressive Socialist Taxation Act.

What do you think your biggest accomplishment of your term has been?
^

When you think calling "socialist" something you don't like authomatically wins you the argument... this is called ideological bankrupcy.

How is it not socialist? A 99% tax on the rich. That leaves everyone with nothing. It is redistribution of wealth at it's peak. Not to mention the collapse of the economy if it passes, where everyone who could, would leave the country, and every corporation, would do the same. There's a reason we saw a great period of economic and cultural growth when capitalism really started to take off. This tax turns Atlasia into the Soviet Union economically.
And it violates the principles of the Laffer curve; people won't bother working if the government takes all of their money, leading to decreased government revenue because of the sharp drop off in tax returns.  Unless of coarse you're going to pull a Stalin and set up Gulags in Alaska.
