I heard this from the son of my garage mechanic!

I tried to counter with the percentage of his paycheck versus the percentage of the gross of what the rich pay, but it got too complicated for him.

Need help in countering this argument next time I'm in for an oil change. This guy is 20 if he's a day! Just a kid and he believe this crap!
