Warren mad mad that someone bought a luxury item , this is what its like to be a jealous progressive. Stop complaining about what other people have and live your life
Fukking hell, Donald Trump proposed a one-time wealth tax in 1999.
So Donald Trump can't even shyt on it, because he had the same plan too?
Meh. If he has the money to buy a 100M yacht, then he has the money to pay the billionaire tax. Pretty clear-cut.
That was right after his big string of bankruptcies, he knew he wouldn't even have qualified for it.
When has that ever stopped him.
.what billionaire tax ??? There is none ,
Meh. If he has the money to buy a 100M yacht, then he could pay the billionaire tax Warren is proposing. Pretty clear-cut.
why is she trying to create class warfare when there is no tax in existence
You're right. I misworded. I should have said,
2% tax is enough for rich people to scream class warfare? That's barely anything. The rhetoric seems to be an overreaction if not outright exaggeration.
What are you talking about bro. Theres no tax, I'm asking simply why is she attaching someone for a purchase... which is taxed. Not only that he will be paying annual fees and property taxes!!
SMART MOVE. And she definitely has my attention more than ever.
But.... She tryna get assassinated. Every politician that corporate backed is gonna do everything in their power to hurt her.
She's not attacking anyone. She's just pointing out that these billionaires have plenty of money and that 2 or 3% isn't gonna hurt them.
He's already paying taxes on those purchases like everyone else, it doesnt matter if it will hurt him or not. Thats like stealing from a store and saying welp the have more
Well it's not because no store passively manufactures products out of thin air. Plus, income inequality has been growing for over a decade. Clearly there's been a funneling of money to the top and it's been off the backs of workers. So redistribution is necessary. They already have all manner of loopholes, deductions, and havens to hide their money. So the whole "woe is money" plea is empty.
what are you talking about about passiviely manufactures products out of thin air?
close the loopholes then. an uncessarily and senseless tax on assets makes no sense. If you dad was rich and handed you down an family heirloom (let's say a painting) and in 30 years that painiting becomes worth $10m , you think it's fair that you get a tax on that, to the point you have to sell the painting because you can't afford the tax? How does that make sense?!?!
What if you won the lotto, you buy expensive things. YOu're not rich, you don't have a steady flow of income....you believe you should be taxed until you become poor. You cannot or should not tax because of the value of an object, it makes no freaking sense. And you know it, just call this an "envy tax", cuz it's not a fair nor progressive tax. Stop being jealous of other people and what they can afford and worry about your life. Pocahontas wanna be fair then maybe she should carve out lands for black americans like her native american brethen received...that's a fair policy.
Stop being jealous of other people and what they can afford and worry about your life.
