Episode Synopsis

Send us a textDoes Warren Buffett truly pay less income tax than his secretary?  In this episode of Fascinating!, Rik from Planet Vulcan questions the narrative that high earners do not pay their fair share of the income tax by proposing a different perspective, while also arguing that on another level the argument is moot anyway, because income ought not to be taxed in any case - there are alternative ways to fund government operations that would very likely work better for society in general.
