That doesnt really make sense. They can always donate to make sure the money actually goes to things that can help people if they want instead of going to the government who can do whatever they want with the money... And it probably wont get used on the stuff you want it to get used on if the government gets it... But most people dont just want to pay more money in taxes because they make more. They earned their money, which is more than others, so its theirs. But they can always donate if they think they have more than enough. Forcing them to pay more taxes would kind of suck for them...

Implying that all organizations people donate money to are legitimate... You still face the same issue that you mentioned.
After the money leaves your pockets you don't know where it goes.

im nowhere near 400k a year but even my eyes water at some of the tax deducted from my payslip. Your argument is hes got enough money so he should want to pay more taxes. nah man, I genuinely dont know anyone who would want to pay more taxes

While I agree. Is it really so bad that a rich person can't buy one more expensive car, yacht, jet, house, etc. a year if the money actually goes toward helping the less fortunate?
