Claiming that increased taxation leads to increased work directly contradicts several findings in the field of economics.


Care for a link? I don't see how taking money from people could possibly make them work less.


I thought this was a pretty good discussion about this: https://politics.stackexchange.com/questions/38132/why-is-it...


Yeah I get what they are saying, but if anything that supports my argument. Wealthy people might work less when taxes go up, but middle class people have to work more. Poor people might work less because of benefits, but overall the people who are working are working harder to support the shenanigans of everyone else.
