Tax the billionaires! BIG TIME! Give ‘em what they are asking for and much more! Leave eneryone else alone.
Why do you or anyone else deserve their money?
You are pretty stupid if you want to take away their money, because it is your money that they are really after and they will take it on the next round.
Have you ever heard of the AMT (Alternative Minimum Tax)? If you haven’t paid this tax yet (a 2nd income tax system established in 1969 to tax 158 millionaries) you probably will soon.
They are really after the 49% of taxpayers who pay no income tax. (but they won’t tell you that.) The tax on billionaries will only pay for federal spending for about a week (estimate). There are only 1100 billionaries. Who is next?
If you want to control the federal government, then you need to control and stop the federal spending, not raising taxes.
