So let's run those numbers:
The top 10% of wage earners in this country pay over 70% in all collected income taxes.
Corporations pay 11% of all collected income taxes.
This means between the top 10% of wage earners and corporations, they are collectively paying over 81% of all federal income taxes collected. that means the rest of us have to come up with the other 19%. But they're not paying enough?????
Yep, that's socialism and the greed of socialists like Mertex.
Ironic she says the rich always want more, isn't it?
Another trickle down sucker, Kaz......bwahahaha.
It's not trickle down, it's flood down. What you want is trickle up poverty. When a poor guy gives you a job, let me know
What happens when workers are actually paid a reasonable wage?
Is it trickle up poverty? Do their employers and stock holders actually become poor or do they just surrender some of the wealth they have been holding back?
Workers are paid exactly their worth for what they produce for the company. That's one reason I chose to be self-employed. I decide what I am worth, no one else. Worked extremely well for over 40 years.
Which says nothing about the nationwide drop in wages at the worker level while corporations are seeing record profits
