I’ve previously pointed out the elements of wealth redistribution in the American system as it exists.   That was your original hot button issue.  
 

In regards to tax generally, I’m a supporter of progressive tax policy, which by design increases contributions as income increases.   It has nothing to do with some silly concept like “fair share”, just a recognition that things must be paid for. 
 

I’d sure love the tax rate to be adjusted downwards, and would love to see an overhaul where we had some reason to believe waste and abuse wasn’t a problem, but that’s a different discussion.  
 

By applying your theory as outlined here, I would have been for the abolishment of all tax or redistributive programs.   That’s silly, as silly say as a Canadian citizen declaring the system the best in the world, while private paying for life-changing or life-saving treatment in a foreign land.  

Carry on.
