[quote=Anonymous]Because the basic overhead of life (food, shelter, utilities, transportation, medical care) necessarily consumes a higher percentage of the HHI of lower-income families. Even as they spend less to meet these needs than UMC do. Basically, at a certain level of affluence, typically a higher percentage of expenditures are discretionary. The same logic is used to justify progressive taxation. And, in the college tuition case, if you have unusually high non-discretionary spending, that may be taken into account. [/quote]
