Nobody said business owners do not deserve to be wealthy, of course they do. Most business owners work more than 40 hours a week, put their own personal capital up to fund their business, etc. They deserve to be wealthy. They also deserve to pay their fair share just like everyone else. Since biblical times, people have been expected to pay a percentage of their income in taxes. If everyone who earns more than $25,000/year paid the same 24%, corporate welfare disappeared and lobbistst were kicked out of Washington, our debt problem would resolve. If the US enacted a national sales tax and ended the war on drugs the immigration issue would disappear.
