It's theoretically more "fair," but in reality it'd never happen. I think I agree with your general premise, but the 'rich' people have a decided effect on politics. They support the elections, the campaign finances.. their hands are just about everyone. And those rich people? They don't want to have to throw away of that "heard-earned" money. It'd never pass in a million years. Even if poor people outnumber them, Congress still makes the laws.
