Is it time to take from the rich to give to the poor?

[Woodznutz]

Show me anyone who is wealthy now who does not make it by sinning?

We are to do good with the "unrighteous mammon". This includes doing good for ourselves.

I'm sorry you hate your Daddy for not getting rich and spoiling you, which is the source of Preppy Love.

You hate your dad because he was poor, so to get revenge you hate rich dads?

You're Also Taking a Pay Cut So Your Boss Can Spoil Junior

By emphasizing only who gives this cancerous entitlement, you're intentionally ignoring the Affluenzist Affirmative Action. For thousands of years, that has created the destructive tyranny of birth over worth.

You can always volunteer to pay income taxes in order to save a precious preppy's trust fund.

You were born poor and you're still a failure.
That's awful!

Instead of the Statue of Liberty, the French Should Have Given Us Their Guillotines

I just told you loyal serfs that not even the 1% will pay any taxes if we take government funding out of what they now leave behind for their spoiled, sheltered, and bossy brats to take over the government, the private sector, the media, and the universities.

It will take far less than 1% of us to wipe out those born in the 1%.

Light your torch. Grab your pitchfork.

Text me when you get to the rich guy's house.

Two Plus Two Equal Dindu

Math be racist, 'cept here be some math that be good: Zero White people equal we gets all their money.

It worked in South Africa.
They got rid of their white leaders, now they only have electricity for a few hours a day.

They also destroyed many white businesses and farms leading to widespread unemployment. My favorite was the destruction of a large white owned dairy farm that provided milk, meat, and employment for the surrounding black community. The blacks took it over, slaughtered all the cows and distributed the meat among the black community. Now they have neither meat, milk, or employment.

The point of Provebs 13:22 is that the wealth of sinners is to be taken, and NOT given to one's descendants.
Show me anyone who is wealthy now who does not make it by sinning?
Charging interest on loans is actually a sin.
Controlling commodities is a sin.

Those are not sins,

All humans are born socialists because that is what evolution has selected for in our DNA.
Primitive tribes have to share in order to survive.

WRONG

All humans are born and evoloved towerd self interest which is calitalism

Sharing is NOT socialism

Funny how the uniparty elites categorize history ......left blames right and vice versa.

The biggest threat to democracy is media ownership .

Clinton's 1996 communications act.

I remember Clinton let us liberals down 3 or 4 times. NAFTA, the 96 comm act and I forget the other times but he was known as a master triangulator. He gave republicans things they wanted and in return he got stuff he wanted.

Was welfare reform one of the other things? In hindsight, that one doesn’t bother me so much. Anyways, even trump admitted clintron was great

 

[my2¢]

Complete BS, the 'rich' already pay the lion's share of the taxes. The top 10% pay a whopping 71% of the taxes how is that 'fair'? You deadbeat losers need to get a job or a 2nd job and pay your fair share you parasite sponges.

I've seen that figure tossed around so often it is surprising that so many can be so ignorant.

You should know statistics as such are measured based on "taxable" income. Don't be naive in thinking all gains are included in that figure. If they were, as I mentioned above, our tax code wouldn't need to consist of 4+million words. As for being a deadbeat, why would I need a second job when I receive a 6 figure income without even a first one?

Clinton worked with the Republicans for his great memories. 1994 helped him. That was the last decade of the post WW 2 generation peak spending.

Of course it is. Income tax is charged on income you fucking twat.

Now, how much of all income taxes collected are paid by the top 10%?

Yeah no shit this genius. Let's continue...The bottom 50% pay only 2.3% of the taxes, NOT a fair share. Lying Joe Biden also lied when he claimed billionaires only pay 8% they pay 20% minimum. More Dem LIES debunked.

Now assets, accumulated wealth are not taxed until a taxable event. That's true for every American. Are you parasite bum Dems proposing we seize people's assets and wealth? If you want to do that then every damn homeowner would need to pay taxes today on capital gains on their homes, 401k, etc.

You LYING puke Dem scum do nothing but foment division with your HATE the rich bullshit. God it's sad you filth are Americans.

 

[my2¢]

Let's continue...

Okay, as I first stated, my stance is that all money received (minus the cost spent to produce that dough) should be treated equally and taxed at a uniform rate.

You've yet to explain what injustice you see it that.

There's a whole industry out there that's had its way of classifying earnings, gains, and proceeds away from being considered ordinary income and towards more favorable tax categories. When you say the top 10%, you're only referring to that unfavorable income earner classification. Wealth is not passed from generation to generation through income.

Is it time to take from the rich to give to the poor?

The hockey stick graph introduced to the climate issue startled enough to start the trend to deal with it.

That shape showed the gross indecency and immorality of our collective focus.

That same immoral shape is what most countries now suffer in their socio-economic demographic pyramids, with a relatively small poor sector when compared to the whole; and especially when compared to the rich.

Statistically and in the long run, the rich have done a good job of improving our collective good.

Going from good to excellent would, cost the rich so little. I have to wonder why their demographers are not recommending that the rich take just a wee bit off the shank of the stick and fix the tip.

It is loose change (a bit of butt tape to our hockey stick), and if the rich will not fix the economy on their own, perhaps we should take their loose change, fix things, --- and raise their grade to excellent.

I understand that there are already several billionaires eager to start such a fund.

Get together, rich benevolent bunch, and set things right.

That will show the world why the rich rule the world.

My rich friends. Boost the trickle down with a one time trickle up and end poverty.

Please hurry, before I must answer yes to my own question.

9 out of 10 Americans are completely wrong about this mind-blowing fact. - Upworthy

The false assumption in your thread title, is that the wealthy “earned” all of that money, by themselves with no help from anyone - not their employees, not a government which protects their property, and including the Reagan tax and labour law codes.

The employees they paid?
The government they paid?

Weren't they paid for their help?
What's your point?
Do you have one?

It's not? My brother is a VP of HR and he's got about $15 million now, THROUGH INCOME. His kids are set. Private schools, paid for. College, paid for. Spending money, no problem. Rent, no problem.

What a rambling bunch of nonsense. Here's a FACT Dem slime want to jack up taxes. Yes it's that easy.

Not on you and me. Only on rich people and corporations. But stop calling it "jacking up" when it's rolling back the tax cuts they should have never got in the first place.

OR, they should have been temporary like Trump made yours. Did you know next year you won't be getting Trump's tax breaks but rich people and corporations will continue to get them? You stupid fucker.

Sure, it's mighty easy for you because all you've done is toss logic aside. You're so stuck in partisan politics you can't see the forest for the trees.

I on the other hand have based my point on principle without concern of politics. For me it makes no sense that the tax code treats things differently if somebody inherits a $100,000 IRA as opposed to $100,000 in stock.
