Well of course conservatives support a “fair” tax. What a fair tax equates to is a massive tax cut for the wealthy and a massive tax increase for the poor. Sounds fair to me. Not. In the 20th Century, Republicans were OK with just ignoring poor people. In the 21st, the idea is that the poor should be punished. The wealthy don’t have enough money and the poor have too much. I could go on, but trying to have a sensible discussion with right-wingers today is like talking to a brick. Except the brick has more brains.
