Too funny. It doesn’t do a thing. The tax rate can be 100 percent and the rich will not pay a penny. Remember Trump himself didn’t pay a penny for 10 years. Don’t worry about the rich “Still Thinking”, they will survive.
The real swindle is not that the rich don’t pay enough taxes.
The real swindle is that the majority of them are democrats.
Yeah, but read what I posted. My concern wasn’t the effect it would have on those at the top (though in a general sense, I think they’re getting screwed and we should level it back out) — it’s with the effect of those on the bottom. You turn government into a free ride, you spawn a generation of Democrat voters. Why would you do that? I realize doing the opposite is thorny politically, but while you’re trying to navigate that issue, at least don’t grow the 47% to 52%. We’re screwed by that badly enough as it is, we need to find ways to SHRINK the 47%.
