Quote from trefoil:
Expressed as a general principal after discussing a particular tax. And no, I'm not looking it up again. There's two places where it's mentioned, towards the back of the book. It's 800 pages. I have a suspicion some folks only read the front part.
As I recall we went through this before, and the quote didn't support what you claimed at all. He said the rich should pay more, not that there should be progressive taxation.
