There is no such thing as a “temporary tax”

Oh goody goody.. can’t wait

Sanders is a moron.

He thinks it’s piles if cash under their mattress.

Another name for it - " Make The Economy Collapse Act "

[hattend]

Why do I think the billionaires financial people are smarter than politicians and can make billionaires money disappear?

[sphinx]

I propose a one-time tax on all U.S. Senators with more than one home, the tax amounting to the current fair market value of all homes other than the Senator’s primary residence.

[BipolarBob]

That will do what for the trillions dollars shortfall?

[rockinqsranch]

Damned jealous Democrats can’t stand anyone getting wealthy other than them. Democrats so much want to be the “In crowd”.

Old Bernie, still saying stupid things

[Dilbert San Diego]

Is there a flaw in the calculations?

So to say that Jeff Bezos is worth tens of billions of dollars more because of the economic success of his company, that doesn’t mean that he personally has all these billions of dollars in the bank, does it?

What I’m wondering is if they’re doing calculations based on the market value of Amazon stock. But if Bezos had to sell a ton of his stock in order to pay these billions of dollars in taxes, wouldn’t that tank the value of his stock? And then he would have nowhere near 42 billion dollars to be able to wire to the IRS the next day to pay his tax bill?

Jesse James extracted similar “one-time” taxes. The difference was Jesse was far more honest about it.

[farming pharmer]

Taking the money is a seductive idea.

If Bezos was building libraries and museums with his money it would be a different story.

Currently he's a seditionist shitbag with access to more money than 99.99999999999% of the people on earth.

How did Elon Musk benefit from the China Virus? Oil prices crashed making electric cars less desirable.

[frank ballenger]

Isn’t he making enemies? He may have “health” concerns.

Billionaires don’t like getting money taken from them. Social justice virtue signaling goes only so far.

[the_daug]

They’re only going to steel once. Fat Chance.

[Ouchthatonehurt]

Isn’t proper etiquette to point a gun when you make a suggestion like that.

[Lurkina.n.Learnin]

If something happens and their shareprice drops will Bernie lead the charge to reimburse them?

[plain talk]

Socialists and commies love confiscating rich people’s money.

[butlerweave]

Ya you could only steal that kind of money once ,LOL

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

Anyone who supports this idea is a fool.

Remember the income tax back in 1914?

A small tax on upper income people. Look at the nightmare that has evolved into.

It wouldn’t be long before this billionaire’s tax would be a “one time tax” on anyone with over a million dollars in assets.
