A race based tax is racist

[norwegen]

I agree. Billionaires should be paying pre 1980 tax rates, and restricted by pre 1980 anti trust laws, no matter what race they are.

That would include pre-1913, right? When taxes were actually fair.

It violates your Bill of Rights and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of which America (among many) have been signatory to since the end of the Second World War. That's how deep such a proposal harks back to, the racism of WWII. The U.S DOJ would have every right to go after the mayor as aggressively as possible if he tried to enact that.

Any wealthy person being taxed due to their race would multiply their tax bill in returns from the NY treasury if such a class action case went to trial. Not even the U.N would be able to defend any such tyranny of government. In fact, such a tax would allow a genuine comparison to Hitler for once and any of his backers would have to own it. Similar to Apartheid race-based laws of S Africa or segregationist in the 1950s America.

New York is the perfect city for ICE to operate now if their mayor goes off the rails with such a supremacy campaign. Trump needs to just be cool and call out the violations the mayor is involved in.

Ironically, he could end up being the perfect foil for the GOP before the midterms, especially if Trump wins the tariff decision and cuts a check for Americans.

Attempts at race-based collective punishment would sink the opposition pretty quickly and if Trumps team is wise, they are already creating many videos with his speeches and words prominently featured.

It also sounds like a jizya tax

I have little doubt everyone in the U.S. would be willing to pay pre 1913 tax rates or 1980 tax rates if you could somehow drop all prices to equal those same years.
Funny how Bernie Sanders used to rail against millionaires until he became one now it is Billionaires. But I have never heard of him selling any of his mansions and giving the money to the poor.

So should you

I hope so. It means I would be paying less of the burden put on me so the parasite corporate class would be paying what they should be.

If you say so.

In 1980, the U.S. federal income tax system had 15 brackets, with rates ranging from 0% to 70%. These brackets applied to taxable income and varied by filing status.
Here’s a breakdown of the 1980 tax brackets for single filers:

Taxable Income	Tax Rate

When would you like to start increasing your contribution to the federal treasury?

You're the arbitor of tax rates, eh. Typical left-wing ego.

With the pre 80s loopholes, right

This isn’t about race. It’s about class warfare and crony capitalism. When all of his bullshit promises don’t happen, the liberals will blame the rest of the country.

The greatest economic era in America was between 1945-1980. That’s just an inescapable historic fact. The time was n America when a single paycheck earning father could support the family, send the kids to college, take the family on vacation, buy a house, and retire fairly comfortably.

Because if the tax rates, anti trust laws, and regulatory business policies.

There is no scenario in anybody’s reality where the policies of the last 45 years have made anything better. Any society where just four families have more money than 50% of the entire population, is a failed society.

“Safety”riiiiight, minimal rights as long as they stayed submissive to every Muslim. Didn’t openly worship, dhimmis weren’t even third class citizens, they weren’t citizens at all. Dhimmis couldn’t carry arms, couldn’t defend themselves and existed at the sufferance of the Muslims.

 

[LeftofLeft]

Mamdani is a racist.

I am more concerned about his attacks on Capitalism and even more concerned about the stupid sheep supporting him.

He's a racist and an anti-capitalist. That is, he's anti-American.

He can be racist. He’s a Jew hater and the self-hating Jews vote against themselves all the time. The atheists, agnostics, and gays are not fare behind.

It has been barely a week and it seems the new socialist NYC mayor is meeting resistance from even left wing media outlets. It's going to be an interesting ride for (white) New Yorkers.

As you tolerant, inclusive, free shit begging purple hair nose-ringing neck tattoo’d folks beg illiterate thirdworlders to invade by the tens of millions?
Do you see why nobody sane takes you seriously?

 

[BrokeLoser]

Those rich white people largely supported his campaign.

Yeah they did…There’s nothing more loon than watching all the woke white guilt Karens, Karls and homo/degenerate boomers champion their own demise…Only white guilt wackos are this loony…how many African, Asian, Muslim/Arabic, latin nations have we seen happily with a smile hand over their communities, cities, states and nations to those of different ethnicities? It doesn’t happen….Caucasian ignorance is a thing…the ******* fools can’t wait for an opportunity to show their ignorance/wokeology, we’ve seen it in France, the U.K. and the U.S….Tolerant inclusive purple hair nose ringing woke white guilt wackos ******* themselves royally.

[Frankeneinstein]

Why is cultural suicide a magnet for rich whites. It's like they are living a life full of regrets for being white. No other ethnic group share this odd behavior.

It's not "rich whites", whenever white liberals go on a 'tax attack' they put the word "rich" in front of their target and carpet bomb the entire area they preside over.
