If Billionaires Paid More Taxes, Would The Govt. Even Put That Money To Good Use?

It's always tax billionaires but never goverment spend more on science and social and less on defense. If we halfed the defense budget we spend 750 billion yearly on defense. China spends 250 billion a year.

That's an entire billionaires net worth.
Hate & fear fuels spending

If my money could get burned so can a billionaires.

This is some Reddit topic that comes up in right wing circles

Bro... if this is right wing talk then refute it.
Don't say if your money can burn so can theirs, that's not a valid argument at all. It's completely 100% invalid.

I would say rather that let the money burn is some Neo-Talk.
Neo what? Whatever man, neoliberal or neoconservative, they are both the same just one is more politically correct than the other.
Neos want war war war war, doesn't matter if they are on the right or the left.

Wanting money to go to the people is not right-wing in my opinion at all.

We dont live in an irrational world.

Billionaires pay irrationally less in tax compared to their stated come compared to a peon like me.

Are you trying to excuse that?

fukk that, every pays their fair share. If you want to offer your ass up to rich people, be my guest

We do live in an irrational world, that's the point of the thread.
Taxation should be considered an investment. We pay so much taxes and do not at all get a return on our forced investment.

Plus when you say if I want to offer my ass up to rich people go ahead, it's like nah!
All our money GOES to the rich and powerful, they go to the Military Industrial Complex, they go to Israel.

Check this, the funding for the Israel Iron Dome. Are you in tech? Do you know what an SOW is?
It's a statement of work, Israel said the money is for repairs even though no rocket ever hit it. In any case why didnt legislators ask for an SOW?
Do you think it would amount to a Billion dollars? Or even half? Or even a quarter of that?
No we BLINDLY gave 1bn to Israel in addition to all that other money greater than a billie that we give them already. Blindly... always... always blindly.

See it's a double edged sword.
Make the rich get taxed more, but in the end the rich still gets richer. It's just a different group of rich people.
