But public goods must be paid for, and it is imperative that everyone pays their fair share. While there may be disagreement about what that entails, those at the top of the income distribution who pay 15% of their reported income (money accruing in tax shelters in the Cayman Islands and other tax havens may not be reported to US authorities) clearly are not paying their fair share.
但公共品必须得花钱购买，且每个人都必须付出公平的分量。分担的细节可能还存在诸多分歧，但显然，那些身居收入分配顶层、只付出报告收入15%（产生于开曼群岛等避税天堂的收入很可能不会报告给美国当局）的那群人并没有付出公平分量。
