A challenge for the "Tax the rich more" crowd.

[kyzr]

Looks like pretty much the same ratio between the groups for the past 37 years. Was there a point to this?

Math challenged?
top 1% got 10x the wealth
10th percentile got 4x the wealth
50th percentile got 2x the wealth
Bottom 10th lost wealth

Leftardz suck at math.

I doubt they can ever reach the level of understanding that causes any realization of the fact that they can't increase taxes on "the rich" without a resulting increase in the financial burdens of themself and everyone else.

The only reason you think you sound smart is because you can come here and have 100 equally uneducated fools sealclap for you saying the dumbest shit ever heard.

 

[Nostra]

You are just trolling. Later. If you want to debate. Hit me up. Otherwise youre just fujcking around.

I put four groups.

bottom 50%
51-89%
90-99%
1%

Who cares what you put? The data in question clearly includes the top 1%% in the top 10%.

You just can’t grasp that.

You still can’t fill in the blanks to my questions, so you are a waste of time.

From the graph, it looks like each division increased between three and four times.

Well excuse me for calling out your belief in the Democrats asinine view of being "rich" and equating that with income.

Where did I say I believe that?

What did Chuz say that was incorrect?

Read the thread title again "moron"....do you see the word "income" in it?

My OP clearly discussed only income taxes, Simp.


From the OP:



How much? Give is some numbers:

The top 1% should pay _____% of the total income taxes.

The top 10% should pay _____% of the total income taxes.

The top 50 should pay _____% of the total income taxes.

What I find disingenuous is the Democrats 'tax the rich' rhetoric tied to earnings and not wealth. On the flip side of the argument, using the percentage of revenue the U.S. received based on the top 1% of earners is just as much of a distortion when it comes to taxing the rich.

Non answer. Try again.

'Tax the rich' is nothing more than a deflection from politicians screwing us over to line their own pockets. Hundreds of billions in government spending go missing, politicians are suddenly worth 10's of millions of dollars on a congressional salary...but hey look over there a 'rich' person take their money!!!

Nope. Your OP says this:
"They never say what is "rich", and how much of the total tax bill the evil "rich" need to pay for their utopia."

So who should pay down the $39T National Debt? How about the people who have $200T in wealth?
A "Penny Solution" would work, a 1% tax on financial wealth, with a Balanced Budget Law to end future Federal borrowing, automatic budget cuts across the board if any deficit happens?

Otherwise we need to send Welfare and Medicaid to the states, which would have people dying in the streets.

 

[my2¢]

They never say what is "rich", and how much of the total tax bill the evil "rich" need to pay for their utopia.

You speak of the "rich" and "total tax bill" but like the Democrats you're thinking of it in the limited terms of earnings as defined within the IRS tax code. Your previous responses of not mentioning "wealth" and only referring to the "income tax" are lame. Wealthy is synonymous with rich plus you refuse to acknowledge the special treatment and exemptions of certain monetary gains embedded within the income tax code which provide the protection of wealth from taxation.

 

[Mashmont]

My question is how do we reward the top 1% which employs so many people and facilitates tax revenue because of that? The only fair way is just to have everyone pay the same dollar amount in income taxes.

All we hear from Democrats regarding the debt is TAX THE EVIL RICH MORE.

They never say what is "rich", and how much of the total tax bill the evil "rich" need to pay for their utopia.

Here is your chance to provide some specifics.

The top 10% should pay _____% of the total income taxes.

The top 50 should pay _____% of the total income taxes.

The top 1% should pay 1% of the total income taxes.

The top 10% should pay 10% of the total income taxes.

The top 50 should pay 50% of the total income taxes.

This goes back to my county 20 years ago in which every participant on a rec sports team paid $65 regardless of income. Same as the movie theater that charges everyone $10. Same with McDonald's which charges everyone $3.65 for a Big Mac. The price is the price. We all breathe the same air, eat the same food, walk on the same sidewalks. Nobody has ever made a convincing argument of why everyone shouldn't pay the same dollar amount on income taxes. If some are moved to pay for others voluntarily, nothing is stopping them. For those who say the rich people use all the resources, I would answer the rich people also provide many jobs, and ergo tax revenue because of them.

I have also never understood why income inequality is a problem. Why do you care if Elon Musk has $100 billion or $500 billion? How does it hurt you either way? If anything, having a super rich class helps the poor in terms of more charitable giving. The leftwing solution is always to take from the rich and lower everyone's standard of living (except that of said leftwing leaders).

 

[Mashmont]

read the numbers, duh.

Looking at the graph, income increased among each group. Why does it matter if one group's percentage increases and another's decreases? It's dollar amount that matters only. Nobody's income went down. The poor make about three times more. The rich make about four times more. So what?

This video perfectly captures leftwing envy. These monkeys are fine when both get the same reward, but when one starts getting a grape instead of cucumber, the first monkey throws a fit.

Tell the class again how the top 1% of income earners are not included in the top 10% of income earners, Dumbass.

Income taxes are the topic of my thread, stupid. That’s why I specifically said INCOME TAXES in the OP, Short Bus.

Man, you are stupid beyond stupid.

So, a thread about INCOME TAXES is lame because I talk about income taxes?

Finally, a coherent answer.

That is a fair tax system.
