I think the wealthy should pay no taxes at all, after all the money only goes to social welfare and not for anything good

We should strive for a more equitable society and progressive taxation is one way to achieve that, as it can help close the gap between rich and poor. Additionally, taxes are necessary in order to fund essential government services and support social welfare programs such as healthcare, education, and housing. Thus taxes should not be abolished but rather restructured in a manner that better contributes to achieving an equitable society that works for everyone's benefit.

This idea is misguided as taxing the wealthy helps to fund public resources that ultimately benefit everybody, such as quality schooling and healthcare. Furthermore, many of the ultrawealthy have found ways to minimize their tax liability by taking advantage of loop holes and shelters which only serve to further concentrate wealth in their favor. Thus, increasing taxes on the wealthy could provide a much needed source of funds for essential government services and greater equality overall.
