Far more of our fellow countrymen buy into this BS than we here at FR want to admit. We're a nation of economic illiterates.
No scoffer here. I know that we watched as young Americans were indoctrinated en masse.
I’ve been on the side that sees AOC as an incredible danger.
The socialists have won. We don’t even know we’re dead yet.
It's bad enough that within the next few decades every politician will have a last name that ends with a Z (like in california)
If true, our days are numbered. Personally, I find it very hard to believe. There are a lot of brain-dead stupid people out there, but Trump would have never been elected if those numbers were correct.
Of course they support it...they don’t have to pay it!

Has LeBron tweeted about this yet?
Alcindor?
Malcolm Jenkins, Kenny Stills . . . ?
Hollyweirders? Jimmie Kimmie?
Notice that they’re talking about an income tax, NOT a wealth tax....
Anyone making that kind of money will possess the know how and resources to avoid it.
Plus, it will depend what the next rate below it is. Does it stay at 39% or whatever it is now? If so, who in their right mind would make over $9,999,999? what is “income”? Gross, Adjusted, Taxable? From all sources or just wages? Most people at that level aren’t making the majority of their income from wages. (See Romney)
It’ll never work.
It is oh so easy to get ignorant people to believe lies.
Marxists have been doing it effectively for more than 100 years.
I think this was an on-line poll.
. . . the 10th million dollar and above . . .
this just means that Americans are retarded and jealous.
Maybe registered voters but are they tax payers as well? I doubt it.
More Fake News. This time from The Hill.
Not too surprising, when nearly half of adults pay no income taxes at all, and less than 1% are in the top tax bracket. That’s the problem with democracy.
Then a majority of Americans better develop a taste for cat because thats what theyre eating in the socialist utopia of Venezuela.
What do you all a cat in Venezuela?
Speedy.
Couldn’t we get more revenue by raising it to 170%? No guts, no glory, right?
The best way to get rid of socialism might be to strictly enforce it then. If these people want this sort of thing, then comes the significantly higher unemployment rates, the black markets, corruption, and overall bankruptcy and stagnation that these ideas will ultimately bring. That might likely make enough people learn the hard way.
Despite all the doom and gloom about this, it wouldn’t be the first time Americans had to deal with this level of exorbitant taxation.
America survived and put out to pasture the politicians who enacted it.
