Demos Issue 4: Division of the tax burden
Federal tax revenue comes from the 3 sources shown in the pie chart. The size of the slices show what portion comes from each source. You vote by repeatedly selecting each pie slice until it is the desired color: green to increase the tax burden on a source, yellow to keep it as is, and red to decrease it. If any slice is green, then at least one slice must be red. If any slice is red, then one slice must be green. Demo Note
