Is it class warfare to advocate giving more of the pre-tax/after-tax income to the rich?

Well! It is very simple........ The salaried people receive salary from a reliable valid source. All employers, including Govt.

Of India organizations, show the net salary given to their employees under the head "Expenses" (or DEDUTIONS) in their account. Thus, the liabilty of the money earned automatically gets transferred to the salaried. "Salary" is the remuneration received by or accruing periodically to an individual for service rendered as a result of expressed or implied contract.

Payment can be taxed under this section unless the relationship of employer and employee exists between the payer and payee. The employer and employee relationship is the relationship of a master and servant, and it distinctly differs from that existing between a principal and agent Primarily, the degree of control of the employer over the employee would be a deciding factor, as the agent is generally not under the complete Control and supervision of his principal. That is why even the emoluments received by an Member if Parliament/ M.L.A. are not taxable under the head "Salary" because of the absence of employer and employee relationship.! But, for the rich people, they do not have (or may hide) a definite account for taxation.

This makes them cleverly hide or show their profits to be lesser to escape from the Income tax burden!

Oh! But you seem to entertain some wrong notions about the rich not paying tax. They most certainly do.

However they have a battery of Chartered Accountants and legal luminaries working for them who delve deep into the various tax laws and find loopholes to avoid (mind you,not evade) paying high taxes. The payments to these experts are probably worth it for the rich guys. And maybe there are other ways too by which they get away with paying less tax.

And that is one of the reasons that they are rich and stay rich. Have a Rich Day.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
