How does government use taxation to affect distribution of income

1 answer:

A majority of taxes are payed by the rich (top 20% of earners pay 84% of taxes - Wall Street Journal), while those who make less money, or no money, pay less (or no) taxes, while still benefiting from government entities (schools, parks, etc.). In addition, the progressive tax system that increases the percentage of taxes an individual pays the more money they make has shown to deter people from economic growth. If a person is nearing the next tax bracket, they may think twice about getting the raise or expanding the business, if the taxation will be at a higher rate.

What is the difference between egomania and megalomania?

torisob [31]

Egomania is basically intolerably self-centred. In a more technical sense, it's an obsession -- an obsessive preoccupation with one's own self, usually in the form of following own impulses and have delusions of grandeur.

Megalomania is a rather loose term, and usually means have delusional fantasies of omnipotence (having unlimited or very great power, whatever 'power' might mean to that person). Interestingly, megalomania was the standard term for narcissistic personality disorder before the 1960s (so far as I recall from my psychology degree over 30 years ago).
