Wealthy people must embrace 'logic of giving,' Pope tells Sunday audience

Right. So do you want lower taxes with less “loopholes”/deductions or higher taxes with more deductions.

The current tax system is like a circle of people, each with a dollar. The government could go around and tax them each 50 cents, but everyone would get angry. Instead of that, the government goes around and taxes each one a dollar and goes around again and returns 50 cents to each. Everyone is happy.
