They literally had commercials telling America this would happen if they elected the man in office.

America didn’t care :manny:

And people, some on this board will defend those people and say we just need to do better.

This is a class war and we’ve already lost.

I'm not rich, but in absolute dollars, I pay so much more in taxes than average income earners that it's not even funny. And last time I checked, I'm taxed at a higher percentage than those that earn less also.

If people are upset that higher earners learn strategies and loopholes to minimize their tax burden, you're probably better off being upset with yourself for not getting to that point and learning the same strategies...

And he is saying both parties in the US and UK same shyt too!




:unimpressed:





Tax the mafukking rich the way they fukking should and stop bailing out corporations and giving billionaires welfare.


Both parties did nothing but give failed companies welfare and tax breaks to keep failing. Bush, Obama, etc.
But yo regular ass would get jail.

The same it would do for everyone else. Make it a simple to understand and comprehend. Purchasing power talking points are rage bait. When you can calculate exactly what's what with no surprises a term like purchasing power doesn't even matter because you have an even clearer picture of what you can and can't afford.......as if that stops people anyway
No they aren't. It's simple mathematics. If you make more than enough, a regressive tax won't hurt you as much as someone on the lower end of the earnings tree. Guess what? People already know what they can and can't afford with a fukked up tax code as is. But what you want is to increase income inequality and worsening financial hardship. Can you at least admit that part?

All these tax breaks for the rich Trump and Elon are pushing will destroy the middle class.
MAGA is slowly realizing they are getting screwed, but they haven’t made the full connection.

When they do, those town halls will get really active
Logical point but you missed one thing. We been here before. Something will happen and people get distracted. There are people in rural areas that haven't seen economic development in their area for decades. But they forget about that when talking about the 2nd amendment gets popular again. Same thing happens across the board.

Didn’t watch but how about redirecting the tax dollars that are already collected? Reinvest in the ppl and infrastructure like China. Just a thought

If they tax the rich even more… they’ll just spend more money on military and random programs

This conversation has been going on since at least since Bill Clinton first ran for president. It’s important to note if things haven’t changed then it ain’t gonna change. Until someone starts tracking how much the rich have been taxed on a year to year basis and under which party (republicans or democrats)
