You want to tax the wealthy?

[22lcidw]

No they won't.

Enact the Prog I want to pay more taxes act. All Progs can pay more. Much more.

 

[occupied]

no i am not aware of this. what part of the law only applies to them? what loopholes?

the reality is the rich pay the largest percent of taxes

If rich people hold all the wealth in America it is right that they should pay more but that's not the whole story. The working class provides the bulk of state's revenue. This is especially true in red states like Alabama that have the most regressive tax codes in America. Leave the tax code to conservatives and they immediately look to shift the tax burden downward.

Yeah I remember that guy. If he was clearing $250, 000 a year I'll eat my hat.

He was not. He presented the scenario to Obama that if he were to buy a business grossing $250k per here, the Obama plan would hurt the business. What Obama and the Democrats did them and you are doing now is trying to make a mockery and liar out of him that he said HE would be taking home $250k per year which was not what Joe was saying. A SCENARIO was presented to Obama to show how and why small businesses get hurt under Democrat tax plans like Obama’s..

Keep trashing and mocking Joe the Plumber in hindsight. It won’t change the fact that he exposed Democrats with a simple small business SCENARIO.

why should some one have to pay more simply because they are more successful?

what’s regressive and the alabama tax code?

and it was the dems in washington that just raised taxes in the working class

 

[rightwinger]

the working class don’t also benefit from roads and education?

Working class needs roads to get to work and visit Grandma out of state.
The wealthy needs roads to move their product and make money

They are not making a profit off of them

Why the fuck are you arguing about something you know nothing about? Since Trump came along I'm having to educate you brainless fucks before you even know what I am talking about. If you are living in a red state I can promise you that working people are paying a higher percentage of their pay in taxes than the country club crowd.

 

[struth]

no but they need them! TP, milk, food, etc

we all ever fit recon roads and trucks delivfing goods

products would be far more expensive if we didn’t have them

Democrats who support egregious tax plans that ultimately punish the middle class incomes always point to infrastructure as justification. Cut the bullshit…. No one is against roads and infrastructure. It is the $10M line item to study the sexual tendencies of people in Pakistan and all of the other bullshit line items like this that add up in a tax bill.

 

[Lesh]

No it's time to give them a dirt nap but I will give them the option. Dirt nap or compromise.

Advocating violence. Yea… you’re a Trump cultist for sure

Republicans voted against roads and infrastructure almost unanimously. There was nothing in it about Pakistan

Just so Biden couldn’t get credit

Show me the Bill they voted against. Show where they voted specifically against roads and infrastructure. In my line item example of sexual tendency studies in Pakistan, I was using that as an example of line items tgee as t Republicans oppose that add up taxes due to wasteful spending.

Here's some figures that may prove the 'right wing' wrong about those poor, overtaxed and very wealthy rich folks.

Who Pays Taxes in America in 2019?

For years, Americans have been told that the rich are paying a highly disproportionate share of the nation’s taxes. Claims to that effect often focus on just one tax, the federal personal income tax, which is indeed progressive overall. But when the nation’s tax system is viewed in its entirety...

Probably because they have most of the money. 3 billionaires own more wealth than half of all Americans. Link below.
