They're skewed towards wage income, because that's how the majority of people in this country make their living, so it's automatically more relevant.

Just because 1-2% of people make their ends meet with their wealth working for them doesn't mean their presence requires them to be represented with equal weight in research.

Not sure how this isn't self-evident to you.

Uh-huh. Taxes are theft, government is bad? Are you sure you're not the one with the biases?

you can choose to denounce your citizenship and stop paying taxes. but your also need to leave the country, and live as a stateless Pirate. and any state enforced rules don't apply so you better arm yourself to the teeth and hide from any roaming military.

There are countries that provide military and policing and do not take %50 of your income to redistribute to the self victimized.

Your logical conclusion is non sequitor.

The point is that it is theft.

Whether they theif offers your "protection" for taking from you, is besides the point.

Actually, I'm curious ... can you give me an example of a state who's tax policy you covet?
