I like Warrens plan, if we make them pay 70% they just commit tax

evasion, and there are so many loopholes, real estate investors and corps do not pay anything at all.

Look at Kushner and Trump, sitting pretty. No more Delaware company start up either. No more pay for play, and Warren can get the job done. I am so sick of those who do not want to pay taxes and horde their money. Its one thing not to over pay but tax evasion is another, close those loopholes.

Current examples[edit]
  • Argentina: It is named Impuesto a los Bienes Personales, on assets above ARS 800,000 (US$48309.18), the annual rates are 0.75% for 2016, 0.50% for 2017, 0.25% in 2018, and they raise it in 2019 to 0.75%.
  • Canada: British Columbia has recently implemented a tax on personal homes. The tax is in addition to regular property tax and begins at homes worth more than $3 million Canadian ($2.3 million US). The tax is 0.2% on the first million above the $3 million and 0.4% on any value above that. No recognition of mortgages, lien, or taxes due is taken into account.
  • France: Until 2017, there was a solidarity tax on wealth on any net assets above €800,000, if your total net worth was €1,300,000 or more. Marginal rates ranged from 0.5% to 1.5%.[3] In 2007, it collected €4.07 billion, accounting for 1.4% of total revenue.[4] From 2018 onwards, it has been replaced by a wealth tax on real estate, exonerating all financial assets.[5]
  • Spain: There is a tax called Patrimonio. The tax rate is progressive, from 0.2 to 3.75% of net assets above the threshold of €700,000 after €300,000 primary residence allowance.[6] The exact amount varies between provinces.
  • Netherlands: There is a tax called vermogensrendementheffing. Although its name (wealth yield tax) suggests that it is a tax on the yield of wealth. It qualifies as a wealth tax, since the actual yield (whether it's positive or negative) is not taken into account in its calculation. Up to and including 2016, the rate was fixed at 1.2% (30% taxation over an assumed yield of 4%). From the fiscal year of 2017 onwards, the tax rate progresses with wealth. See Income tax in the Netherlands. In addition to the vermogensrendementheffing, owners of real estate pay a tax called onroerendezaakbelasting, which is based on the estimated value of the real estate they own. This is a local tax, levied by the city council where the property is located.
  • Norway: 0.7% (municipal) and 0.15% (national) a total of 0.85% levied on net assets exceeding 1,480,000 kr as of 2017.[7] For tax purposes, the value of real estate assets are estimated to approximately 50% of the market value (25% if it is the taxpayer's primary residence).[8] The Conservative and Progress parties in the current government and the Liberal Party have stated that they aim to reduce and eventually eliminate the wealth tax.[9]
  • Switzerland: A progressive wealth tax that varies by residence location. Most cantons have no wealth tax for individual net worth less than CHF 100,000 and progressively raise the tax rate on net assets with a top rate ranging from 0.13% to 0.94% depending on canton and municipality of residence.[10] Wealth tax is levied against worldwide assets of Swiss residents, but it is not levied against assets in Switzerland held by non-residents.[10][11]
  • Italy: Two wealth taxes are imposed. One, IVIE, is a 0.76% tax imposed on real assets held outside Italy. The values of such assets are determined by purchase price or current market value. Property taxes paid in the country where the real estate exists can offset IVIE. Another tax, IVAFE, is 0.15% and is levied on all financial assets located outside the country, including, so far as the language seems to imply, individual pension schemes such as 401(k)s and IRAs in the US.

Got to admit the delusional are funny.

Who do you think wrote every line of our current tax code? It was not a poor person sitting in a room. It was congress. Where do you think the largest concentration of millionaires are? Congress.

Warren is poor right? She would never suggest something that she knows she and others would never pass just to get elected. Right?

Hey we get to sit around and say nothing when they give huge tax cuts to the rich, time for payback.




Summary of the Latest Federal Income Tax Data, 2017 Update


In 2015, the top 1 percent of taxpayers accounted for more income taxes paid than the bottom 90 percent combined. The top 1 percent of taxpayers paid $568 billion, or 39.04 percent of all income taxes, while the bottom 90 percent paid $428 billion, or 29.41 percent of all income taxes.

Payback? for what? and do you know that many of these rich people own or started companies that create jobs for other people? properties that they own, generate property tax for their communities already... why do the greedy MArxists in the democrat party want to put their greedy fingers where they have no place being?

Like good Marxist they will say they are doing it for the little guy, and its PAYBACK for the greedy rich.
They dont have many greedy rich left in Venezuela do they? nothing but just really really poor people everywhere, living the Marxist dream.

Do you know that the elephant is the biggest animal in the jungle and African plains? You could imagine that many of the other forest animals are jealous that the elephant gets to go wherever it wants.. whenever it wants. It doesn't have to worry about too much, like the poor little gazelle and chimpanzee do. One could imagine the gazelle and chimpanzee conspiring to get rid of the greedy obnoxious elephant... I mean, all they ever do is crash the jungle and break shit. But then, do you know what would happen if they actually succeeded in getting rid of the greedy old elephant?
What would happen is the eco system of the African plains would collapse. Elephants are responsible for digging those watering holes you see on the Nature channel when CNN isn't playing. Basically what happens is that when the rainy season comes, all those holes that the elephants dig, fill up with water ... so that in the DRY season the chimpanzee can come out of the tree, the gazelle and cheeta can all go grab a cold one.
Point being, without the elephant all the other animals who may walk for miles across the hot plains in search of that watering hole in the hot summer would be a sack of dried up leather and bones if not for the elephant.
Be careful what you wish for, your Marxist bretheren have a very very bad track record when it comes to caring for the little guy.

The problem is it is probably unconstitutional. It's a form of property tax, and I don't think the federal government has the authority to issue a property tax.

Go live on the moon if you don't like it. No its not unconstitutional. what is unconstitutional is people make millions and are tax evaders and all the loopholes the filthy rich have.


Too many liberal moon bats on the Moon already.

Too much neoliberalism, time for the blue collar workers to get ahead, and spread some of the wealth around via healthcare and public schools and infrastructure.
Oh my god! Talk about crazy Dem talking points.
Healthcare for all is estimated to cost 3.2 Trillion a year. In 2016 the government took in 3.2 Trillion. How do you expect to pay for healthcare when you can't even pay for the people who collect the taxes?
We already have public schools. Try them some time.
Infrasturucture. It would be nice if we could convince those in congress to act like fiscally responsible adults. But none of them have ever learned not to spend more then we take in. I guess we could always just pick more money off the money tree, also known as going deeper in debt.

Only crazy people do not understand that nothing is free someone has to pay for it. Want Medicare for all, look to the counties that have it already. The average taxpayer is paying 50-60% in taxes, bussiness pays about 20%. The reason for that is they understand tax someone too heavily they can move business, money or self to another location.
Don't forget all the great points of universal healthcare. No private or semi private rooms. Six week wait to see a specialist. Up to a year wait for non life threatening surgery. Less new medicines. Fewer medical breakthroughs and improvements.

The problem with spending other people's money is you eventually run out of other people's money.

Look at Kushner and Trump, sitting pretty. No more Delaware company start up either. No more pay for play, and Warren can get the job done. I am so sick of those who do not want to pay taxes and horde their money. Its one thing not to over pay but tax evasion is another, close those loopholes.

Current examples[edit]
  • Argentina: It is named Impuesto a los Bienes Personales, on assets above ARS 800,000 (US$48309.18), the annual rates are 0.75% for 2016, 0.50% for 2017, 0.25% in 2018, and they raise it in 2019 to 0.75%.
  • Canada: British Columbia has recently implemented a tax on personal homes. The tax is in addition to regular property tax and begins at homes worth more than $3 million Canadian ($2.3 million US). The tax is 0.2% on the first million above the $3 million and 0.4% on any value above that. No recognition of mortgages, lien, or taxes due is taken into account.
  • France: Until 2017, there was a solidarity tax on wealth on any net assets above €800,000, if your total net worth was €1,300,000 or more. Marginal rates ranged from 0.5% to 1.5%.[3] In 2007, it collected €4.07 billion, accounting for 1.4% of total revenue.[4] From 2018 onwards, it has been replaced by a wealth tax on real estate, exonerating all financial assets.[5]
  • Spain: There is a tax called Patrimonio. The tax rate is progressive, from 0.2 to 3.75% of net assets above the threshold of €700,000 after €300,000 primary residence allowance.[6] The exact amount varies between provinces.
  • Netherlands: There is a tax called vermogensrendementheffing. Although its name (wealth yield tax) suggests that it is a tax on the yield of wealth. It qualifies as a wealth tax, since the actual yield (whether it's positive or negative) is not taken into account in its calculation. Up to and including 2016, the rate was fixed at 1.2% (30% taxation over an assumed yield of 4%). From the fiscal year of 2017 onwards, the tax rate progresses with wealth. See Income tax in the Netherlands. In addition to the vermogensrendementheffing, owners of real estate pay a tax called onroerendezaakbelasting, which is based on the estimated value of the real estate they own. This is a local tax, levied by the city council where the property is located.
  • Norway: 0.7% (municipal) and 0.15% (national) a total of 0.85% levied on net assets exceeding 1,480,000 kr as of 2017.[7] For tax purposes, the value of real estate assets are estimated to approximately 50% of the market value (25% if it is the taxpayer's primary residence).[8] The Conservative and Progress parties in the current government and the Liberal Party have stated that they aim to reduce and eventually eliminate the wealth tax.[9]
  • Switzerland: A progressive wealth tax that varies by residence location. Most cantons have no wealth tax for individual net worth less than CHF 100,000 and progressively raise the tax rate on net assets with a top rate ranging from 0.13% to 0.94% depending on canton and municipality of residence.[10] Wealth tax is levied against worldwide assets of Swiss residents, but it is not levied against assets in Switzerland held by non-residents.[10][11]
  • Italy: Two wealth taxes are imposed. One, IVIE, is a 0.76% tax imposed on real assets held outside Italy. The values of such assets are determined by purchase price or current market value. Property taxes paid in the country where the real estate exists can offset IVIE. Another tax, IVAFE, is 0.15% and is levied on all financial assets located outside the country, including, so far as the language seems to imply, individual pension schemes such as 401(k)s and IRAs in the US.

The problem is it is probably unconstitutional. It's a form of property tax, and I don't think the federal government has the authority to issue a property tax.

Go live on the moon if you don't like it. No its not unconstitutional. what is unconstitutional is people make millions and are tax evaders and all the loopholes the filthy rich have.


Too many liberal moon bats on the Moon already.

Too much neoliberalism, time for the blue collar workers to get ahead, and spread some of the wealth around via healthcare and public schools and infrastructure.
Oh my god! Talk about crazy Dem talking points.
Healthcare for all is estimated to cost 3.2 Trillion a year. In 2016 the government took in 3.2 Trillion. How do you expect to pay for healthcare when you can't even pay for the people who collect the taxes?
We already have public schools. Try them some time.
Infrasturucture. It would be nice if we could convince those in congress to act like fiscally responsible adults. But none of them have ever learned not to spend more then we take in. I guess we could always just pick more money off the money tree, also known as going deeper in debt.

Only crazy people do not understand that nothing is free someone has to pay for it. Want Medicare for all, look to the counties that have it already. The average taxpayer is paying 50-60% in taxes, bussiness pays about 20%. The reason for that is they understand tax someone too heavily they can move business, money or self to another location.
Don't forget all the great points of universal healthcare. No private or semi private rooms. Six week wait to see a specialist. Up to a year wait for non life threatening surgery. Less new medicines. Fewer medical breakthroughs and improvements.

The problem with spending other people's money is you eventually run out of other people's money.

Duh , Warren just told you where the money would come from. Not to mention the BCBS CEO of MI made 17 million in one year. You are mistaken about healthcare. It takes that long to see a specialist now, today in the US, unless you are rich or have an emergency.

Would be different if warren actually had a working plan but to say we will have somebody else pay for it is not a workable plan.

So it all boils down to you hate people making more money then you even if you don't put in the hours and have the headaches that they do. What does anyone making money have to do with socialized medicine? Very good, point out that one specialist may require you to wait longer then the average as a validation of every thing you wrote. The national average is one to one and a half weeks.

People have already paid tax on their earnings at some point before they get enough money together to buy their first piece of commercial property. Those tax breaks are also incentives to get people to invest. You know who loves that? engineers, builders, maintenance companies who service property. YES, lets start really taking it to investors.... they wont be investing much any more will they? those greedy pigs!.... and you will watch the economy shrink as things slow down. You know, lots of regular people become millionaires through investing in property and if it wasnt for those same tax breaks that are available to you yourself, they might never do it. They might just stick to the stock market, but then I'm sure you want to raise capital gains. lets make sure there are no more millionaires up and comming, especially the African American ones who are finally starting to get a bigger piece of the pie. OF course the 400 families or so who are already incredibly wealthy can take their money and go somewhere else, they dont really have to be affected. You Marxists are really a piece of work.
 
People will invest. They do not need incentives. It time to pay back.

What happens if they leave the country? Also, they will definitely move to low tax states to avoid paying local, regional, city and state taxes of all kinds.

Got to admit the delusional are funny.

Who do you think wrote every line of our current tax code? It was not a poor person sitting in a room. It was congress. Where do you think the largest concentration of millionaires are? Congress.

Warren is poor right? She would never suggest something that she knows she and others would never pass just to get elected. Right?

Hey we get to sit around and say nothing when they give huge tax cuts to the rich, time for payback.
I love being rich...

So what. Let them leave.
So the crazies that have raised state taxes into the stratosphere and still want higher taxes (see Californa wanting to tax texts) think that taxing someone more money to get something that they do not want to pay for themselves. In other words free. Then they say if they don't like giving their money away they can leave. What happens when they leave and that source of free money is gone? That shows so much foresight.

With state taxes being let us just pick a small number at random. Say 10% and federal tax being 70% a person who makes a good living is now taxed to the point it is not worth the headache and the risk of making money.

Liz Warren proves that people are stupid enough to believe what she says

More than half of all corporations do not file corporate taxes but do you know why?

Of course you don't

The two most common corporations in this country are S Corps and LLC and neither entity files or pays corporate taxes because all the revenue these entities generate is reported on the stock holder's, or member's in the case of the LLC, personal tax forms.

A "wealth tax" isn't constitutional here in America. I would suggest that Pocahontas submit an amendment to allow it, if she is so hot to trot for it
