The American Gini Coefficient's (measure of wealth disparity) actually one of the highest in the world, above China and other countries.
I'm upset that GE can afford a 900 person tax department and pay almost zilch in taxes (both through keeping profits offshore and intense lobbying). I'm upset that every time I look through the Tax code I see exceptions for farmers and land developers.
Our laws should foster desirable goals, but should not lean so far towards special interests that Billion dollar multi-national corporations can make off with no taxes.
