A progressive marginal rate tax system with almost no 'exceptions' would more reflect ability to pay. But rates should start out very low on the bottom end and should not go too high, say 50% at the top end. Inheritance tax should also be progressive and should have provisions for passing on farm or range lands to family members. People who inherit too much very often get themselves and others in trouble because often they have no sense of the real value of effort. Just my dreams of a more equitable system. None of this has any chance at all of occurring, so you don't need to feel obligated to debate it.
