Go ahead and explain your argument. You think that nobody gave thought to how the tax system would affect different people differently? It was just a historical accident? Policies randomly thrown together? Even if that were true, which obviously is absurd, why the hell would that mean we shouldn't fix it now?
given that different states have radically different tax systems and given that my income taxes under the federal system no longer allows me to deduct state sales taxes etc WTH do you think?
the federal system is a different sovereign than the state (its that pesky federalism thing again) and the last I checked, the federal system doesn't credit me for living in a highly taxed state like Ohio. So again you are mistaken
