And you tell them SIXTY Fortune 500 companies paid NO Fed taxI believe if EVERYONE paid their fare share we'd all be in a better placeAll I can say is your use of the word rape is terribly misplaced and yes the costs of college and healthcare must come down and on another note ,,, Do you think a 2% tax on those earning say a million a year is so bad?Guess you don't believe there's a HUGE and growing disparity between wealthy and middle class that should be repaired without hurting the wealthy?
How do repair it WITHOUT taking it by force of law? Who really cares about the "wealth disparity"?? What matters is RESCUING a middle class from all the pressures of labor dislocation overseas and rising costs of college and healthcare...
PERHAPS --- the Dem socialists pushing for raping the rich just are too incompetent and lazy to BRING UP the middle and lower class in USA... The rich did not STEAL from the rest of us.. You know that don't you? The way it works is that it's NOT a fixed pie that we all fight over... Right?
So --- why are the socialist/commie progressives COOL with Jeff Bezos paying no taxes and buying up America with Google and Facebook? Isn't that "increasing the disparity between wealthy and not?
When these guys DO that -- they don't STEAL money from others. They BUILD NEW value, capacity and volume in the economy...
Answer me how you strip the "wealth" of the 1% when that wealth is NOT IN CASH or gold, but it's inside the walls of 25 MASSIVE Amazon fulfillment centers and a large number of Hollywood Studios, Media companies, Energy companies, ect...
It's amateur hour when leftist progressives whine about economic issues because they are proven to be -- time and time again -- nearly totally ignorant of how a free market economy or Capitalism actually works...
Some of your comrades are talking up to 70% tax, not 2%.
And just how are you going to fund free healthcare, free college, reimbursements for people that did pay for their college with a 2% tax?
Given the fact that nearly 50% of our country pays no income tax at all, wouldn't it be more fair if they started to pay their fair share instead?
Then by all means, please tell your buddies that. Because they think that the top 20% of wage earners paying over 80% of all collected income taxes is not enough.
