Unfair Taxation

This is a short article but I found it interesting because of our recent tax conversations. The tax seems to be unfair however there's really nothing the person can do to avoid it. Just because he lives outside the U.S. he pays more, essentially being taxed on his taxes. Is this unfair or is it just another issue that comes with taxes that we as people just need to understand and deal with?

  2. i agree with Jon on this one and i think he said it earlier in class about taxes are the price we pay for being able to live in America. If you don't like it you can get out

  3. I agree with both of the previous statements. Taxes keep this country moving and help fund many important projects.
