You think stealing 40% of what someone makes at just the federal level is "fair?" Holy cow! That is just plain selfish and greedy. The President is a fink. |

odiousgambit Member since: Oct 28, 2012 Threads: 154 Posts: 5098 | I think we'll see the taxes increase now for the 6-figure+ income folks, like it or not Usually, at least in the past, this means politicians will be enticed to write new special ways to shelter income, making the tax code very complex, and savvy rich people who hire advisors will not actually have to pay as much as it seems they do. I don't see why now now would be any different. the big battle to fight now is against those who are going after wealth generally. In other words, over 50% of the income of the high earners [all taxes all together] is not going to be enough for some of the progressives who are pushing this. Wealthy people will be forced to cash in some of their assets to increase what the state will get. I've long said this is one big difference between mere socialists and true communists. The communists go after the assets too, not just income redistribution. I'm Still Standing, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah [it's an old guy chant for me] |
