    “Keep what you earn” is a bullshit concept in the first place. If it was a valid ideology at all, then I should be getting paid 100% of the value that I generate for the company I work for. That’s what I earned. But nobody’s making that argument because it’s plainly farcical. So too is the idea that we should “keep what we earn” when it comes to taxes.
