I ask again:I would bet money that idiot doesn’t even have a bank account.AHAHAHA so you think it is fair and smart policy to have millionaires and billionaires pay a much smaller percentage in taxes than the middle class. This excuse is so pathetic and does not age well.By "MASSIVE tax give away" you mean.....THEY GET TO KEEP MONEY THEY EARNED???Wealthy real estate developers like Trump score a huge tax break in the stimulus bill
The $2 trillion coronavirus stimulus bill passed by the Senate provides aid for average consumers and small businesses -- but there's also a lucrative tax break for wealthy real estate developers.edition.cnn.comBonanza for Rich Real Estate Investors, Tucked Into Stimulus Package (Published 2020)
A small change to tax policy could hand $170 billion in tax savings to real estate tycoons.www.nytimes.com.
Currently if you own real estate and other businesses, you get to use depreciation AND improvement/upgrade expenses to write off the profits on your other businesses/income. Meaning If I make $1 million or $1 billion trading stocks or any other business, and I own real estate I can make tax deductions on that $1 million/billion profit by claiming depreciation on real estate or upgrade expenses. This is already a pretty big scam and windfall for real estate investors.
BUTTTTTT
This is capped at $500k, so you could only deduct $500k of that $1 million/billion or whatever the income is... BUTTTTT in this stimulus bill, republicans quietly slipped a provision in that removes the cap completely!!!!
Meaning now you can deduct any amount that you can come up with (even Billions)!!! So basically you can make millions/billions on non-real estate income and pay no taxes on it, by claiming depreciation and upgrades of your real estate investments!!!!
BUTTTT it gets even worse!!! They also made the removal of the cap retroactive for the past 3 years!!! So that means you can deduct the depreciation etc etc from 2018 and the government will send them a massive refund check!!!!
This is estimated to cost the government $180 Billion!! That $180 billion could go to hard working Americans, but it is going to the ultra wealthy. This is indefensible, but we know that Trumpers will somehow defend it, because they are sheep!! Stop crying about being over taxed, because you gladly support policy that lets the ultra wealthy pay no taxes on their millions/billions...
IT'S NOT YOUR FUCKING MONEY, YOU COCKSUCKING COMMUNIST PIECE OF SHIT!!!

You think millionaires and billionaires pay a much smaller percentage in taxes than the middle class?
Your elevator doesn't go all the way to the top floor, does it?
You actually believe billionaires will be paying smaller tax percentage?
Some people are dumb...
He's a "banker", but that's what he believes.
