Billionaire tycoons own politicians on both sides of the aisle. They don't have to vote, because they win either way.

Let us know when you figure out that operating profits are not connected to stock valueYawnHorseshit. MS never made a $35 billion profit in its entire history. That would be more than 30%, which is an absurd profit for a corporation of that size.Microsoft had 110 billion in revenue in 2018 with a 35 billion dollar profit.I would be a schitzoid if I thought you could prove your claim.

Yup. And it's not salary or capital gains.
Blue cross hereWell light up another one and enjoy your oboobacareSmoke your cigarette and be quietYes to the food stamp economist
Whatever to the pissy little lady. You do your gender a discredit. Such a feeble thinker. Worried about Wall Street billionaires, yet zero consideration for the congressional millionaires who the Wall Street billionaires cut checks to. What a tool.
Already done cupcake.
Na, Kelsy executive care.
You are right the rich are small and can not pay for everything. Thanks for understanding this and voting for trumpYou would give up 700 million of every 1 billion tooWill vote for Democrats who want to federally tax them seven hundred million dollars a year before state taxes.
Why would these people not vote for Trump
They would.
Yea right, too bad you have nothing
Psst! Here's clue. They're less than 1% of the population. The ONLY way their side will get elected is if fools like you vote for the policies that help them. That's why Republicans vilify city dwellers, non-whites and immigrants. To gin up hatred for the "others" so you don't notice that it really is the ultra wealthy they're governing for.

Let me know when you figure out how to read a profit and loss statement. The pre-tax income was indeed, $36 billion.
Interesting that the net income for Microsoft was LESS after the Trump tax cuts, than before, and that Microsoft's net income was $16.5 billion on pre-tax income of $36.4 billion under the new tax structure in 2018 versus $20.5 billion in 2016, on $25.6 billion pre-tax income in 2016.
What does your daughter's trailer have to do with anythingYou are right the rich are small and can not pay for everything.

The rich are small in nunmber but they control MOST of the wealth. They also pay the smallest percentage of their income in taxes, and get to keep far more of their income than working people. At the same time, they have numerous deductions and loopholes working people don't have.
Since 1980, executives and upper management have seen their salaries increase by 300% in terms of real income. Working people have not only seen their income stagnate, but the buying power of that income has eroded because all of their costs have gone up and their income hasn't kept pace.
I did a recent social experiment using my own lifestyle and its costs, and compared them with those of my 29 year-old daughter at the same age. We both had two children by age 29, she's married and I was divorced at that age, but in fairness, I married much younger than she did, and my kids were about 3 years older than hers. She has yet to buy her first house, I was living in my second house.
What I found was that the lifestyle I had at age 29 would be so expensive today, that I couldn't afford any of it - not the house, the new car, the in-home daycare, the travel. My monthly costs have gone from $700, including house, car and day care, to over $3000 a month for the same costs today. At the same time as my income has gone from $1500 per month, to $2,200 per month for the same job. During this time frame, the bank I worked for has automated and is far more profitable now, than it was when I worked there.
Where do you think those reduced costs and increased profits have gone? They've gone to the corporations, and their shareholders. The top 20% of income earners. Increased income and profits used to be split among the corporation, its workers and its shareholders. The workers have been pushed out of the equation, and as corporations get larger, and the wealthy people who run them are further and further removed from the people they employ, the real effect of all of the growth going to the top, is never seen by the people who make the policies.
My daughter laughed that the purchase price of my newer 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 1350 sq. ft. house was LESS than the minimum down payment on a starter property today. My daughter and her husband will pay more than 20 times what I paid for our starter home in 1973, for their first home today, and they're shopping in rural areas to find something that cheap.
