If Billionaires Paid More Taxes, Would The Govt. Even Put That Money To Good Use?

[™BlackPearl The Empress™]

The rich actually pay more in taxes as far as the actual dollar amount (not percentage wise.) And they also have taxes that most of you are not subject to like payroll taxes and unemployment insurance etc if they own a business.

Many of them also keep people employed and generate income for all said employees. The average person will never employee one damn person.

Our government is trash the money would go to more toys created by the military industrial complex and funding for even more wars to use said toys.

Businesses aren't doing anyone a favor by hiring people. They hire people to make them more money. I don't know how that fact has been lost with the general public.

The percent of paid taxes should go up with income not down!

But back to the topic at hand. Even if you think the money would be wasted, why be OK with your money being wasted but not some rich guy born 3 steps ahead?

Tell that to Detroit. Businesses create jobs which build economies.

Again, there are a ton of taxes that businesses are subject too that you are not.

What's the point of trying if you are going to be punished for it? What's the point of creating job is you just have to give it all back to fund people who don't work as hard as you do, don't create job etc. Businesses should be incentived. I rather the person use that money to create jobs and stimulate the economic than give to the government to miss manage.

I swear ya'll hate to see other people being successful.

Damn, never thought of that one. They should just be allowed to continue to evade taxes and keep all that money they’ve been laundering.

All of that is shyt they are supposed to do and legally have to do to stay in businesses
They also are legally supposed to pay income tax but they don’t do that
No a billionaire does not get a pass for not paying any income taxes just because they make a bunch of shytty $17 hour jobs
I don’t know why you people think cause you own a business you need to support the rights of billionaires
You’re not on their level nor will you ever be

 

[sayyestothis]

It's hard to put the money to use when it's gotta go to debt first breh....

 

[desjardins]

irrelevant, are they putting MY taxes to good use?
It's about fairness more than anything
It's weird as shyt when I see broke ass cacs , who presumably have to pay all their taxes, make this argument in defense of the mega rich.

Again, tell the city of Detroit how shytty jobs are.

What they do isn't illegal (the majority of the time). You have the same options available to you. I employ the same tactics to save myself money.

They already struck down the bill breh because they already decided that it was probably unconstitutional.

The thing about it is that billionaires and companies have tax shelters they employ so it doesn't even matter how much you raise taxes.

What you don't seem to realize is that they use these tactics to eventually trickle down to the middle class.

They know that they'll never be able to tax the rich to death but they do know that people like yourself love the thought of more successful people than yourself being punished and you fantasize about being able to benefit from their money.

So they use the bate and switch which you have obviously fallen for very hard.

Bit of a silly question.

The reason why billionaires pay less taxes is because of the corruption that exists. They're able to grease the palms of politicians who create a system of breaks and loopholes.

If billionaires were taxed more, one would think we would have a political system that better represents the interest of the common man, resulting in the money being spent to benefit society as opposed to circulating the money amongst peers.

Ya'll really fall for this carrot on the stick, hard.

Politics way more complex that "BILLIONAIRES DONT PAY THEIR FAIR SHARE"
