    Lot of what is happening now already happened in history,

    " A nation can survive its fools and even the ambitious ,but it cannot survive treason from within.An enemy at the gates is less formidable for he is known and carries his banner openly.But the traitor moves amounst those within the gates freely, his sly whispers russling through all the alleys,heard in the very halls of government itself.For the traitor appears not a traitor he speaks in acents familiar to his victims,and he wears their face and their arguments,he appeals to thr baseness that lies depp the hearts of all men.he rots he soul of a nation,he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city.He infects the body politics so that it can no longer resist ,a murderer is less to fear.The traitor is the plaque.
    Marcus Tullius Cicero,ancient roman scholar ,lawyer statesman.106 BC -43BC

    They do, but what I mean is that their total income should be taxed at the same percentage as Joe Schmo the garage mechanic pays on his.
