You mock leftists as having futile aspirations, thanks to your tax dodging abilities. But we do have progressive taxation as a rather strongly entrenched policy in the United States and most of the rest of the world, so in that sense, you are the one with a futile task ahead of you, in your aspiration to eliminate it. Good luck!
It’s like looking into a crystal ball that changes as you twist it.
On one end, yes, progressive taxation is the goal of laws at the high level.
But on the other, the implementation of such a policy is impossible, so if you have 3 degrees of separation between the goal and individuals trying to act in their own self interest, the folly becomes obvious.
Human behavior is unchanging, and so is the nature of those in power. The elite leftists will pass any amount of nonsense policies but will violate it themselves at will and protect their own elites.
I can’t really explain it other than you need to view the system properly and shake the crystal ball.
Put yourself in my shoes - pay millions in taxes, or pay a firm $100k and sign a bunch of documents to save millions in taxes. I’m not a sucker.
You are trying hard not to address the reasonable questions. This is not really the place to convince people of anything by says "view the system and shake the crystal ball".
I have an accountant and ask him how to do things to reduce taxes. But I'm not against paying taxes. I like to live in a safe place, with services, a city that is functional, a state that is working. I don't see it as a chump thing to pay taxes. I'm pretty fortunate as a software engineer. I feel sorry for you, with your inability to address the question and just calling people chumps and suckers for having different ideas.
