In the last year, the ten richest men in America are 698 billion dollars richer

Buffet mentioned years ago he pays less as a percentage than his secretary, thanks to a tax code designed by the super wealthy.

He lied.

 

[citygator]

The argument is that very high marginal rates on billionaires, which we saw in the 50's/60's led to growth and innovation

That's a stupid argument.

It adds no value for them to have all that money when it was better utilized when taxed.

LOL!

Yeah, the federal government is famous for adding value.
Look at all they added when they started loaning hundreds of billions for college.

Bad example.

College loan holders can complain about owing money all they want but on average they are $1.2M better off than they would have been if they didnt go. It’s a perception problem not a real problem. If for profit schools were excluded the calculus would be way better than the $1.2M, close to $1.5M.

 

[Concerned American]

We do None of these things except use computer.

So the billionaire that owns the computer mfg. company and the billionaire that creates the operating system and the billionaire that owns the search engine and the billionaire that owns the internet access company get a free pass because you gave them their billions freely eh? LOL, I think you should give critical thinking a whirl, you might learn something.

What we see now is a population who can not go for more than 5 min with out checking their phones.

Oh, and there's more billionaires that own the phone mfg. company and the phone company---do they get a free pass as well because you say--that's different. BTW, don't forget the billionaire that owns Walmart where you get all of those good deals.

You keep screaming beggars nonsense at the sky but you can’t tell us how one mans “BENEFITS” affect your earning potential or quality of life….why are you struggling to articulate something you seem so passionate about?
Tell us how the $22 TRILLION we’ve invested in you bottom feeders has worked out for us?

America Wastes $22 Trillion In War On Poverty

The Census Bureau's annual report on poverty, released Tuesday, is noteworthy because this year marks the 50th anniversary of President Lyndon Johnson's launch of the War on Poverty. Liberals claim... Read More

You do not seem to understand that humans are fallible, meaning that you can always find something that supports your way of thinking. What you always need to do with everything, is compare whether there are more positives than negatives in the scenario and go with the better one.

Trump is attempting to get rid of the bottom feeders, but he is replacing them with top feeders (billionaires) that will take MORE away from us than what the bottom feeders are taking away. As such, he is not making the situation better but worse.

That's probably an old figure.
And probably doesn't include the ones who pile up a bunch of
debt and then drop out before getting their degree.

The ten richest men in America became nearly 700 billion dollars richer in the last year. In the meantime, the GOP and Trump have shut down the AID program, literally taking food out of the mouths of starving children. And here in the states they want to eliminate the SNAP program, take healthcare programs away from low income people, and charge the rest of us more. Just so next year those ten and other very wealthy can gain even more than $700 billion. Wages stagnant, major layoffs happening, and food prices going up, and it looks like they will go up even more rapidly in the coming months. Already in the off year elections, we are seeing people reacting to what they are seeing the GOP and Trump doing to their lives.

Trump's signature achievement in his first term was a huge tax break for billionaires. That his supporters are mainly poor white trash you can't help but get some amusement from it all

Trump supporters come from every demographic. Your simplistic and wrong assessments are not an indication of intelligence.

Why are you jealous of successful people?

I'm an exception to whatever metric you are using.

Your reliance on offensive fantasies about Trump supporters is quite typical of Trump Haters.

 

[Soupnazi630]

Lol. Says the guy who thinks Oswald shot JFK and acted entirely alone.

LMFAO!

With evidence to prove it

Something you never have

 

[el midgetron]

“Richest men” is all you need to know.

 

[Soupnazi630]

I didnt backpedal. My point is there is no community value generated for having billionaires swimming in billions and there is more community value in taxing them for societal benefit. We used to tax them a bunch, not anymore and society is as inequitable as it every has been. High tax rates is how you minimize the wealth consolidation into the billionaires.

They get lots of value from the community without which they would be foraging for food in the wild.

You did backpedal

Now you are waffling

Humnas do not exist for their value within a community.

bhowever you are stupidly wrong they create more community value than they recieve. Wealth consolidation harms no one and does not need to be prevented

 

[gipper]

Yeah you stick with Oswald acted alone and the Warren Report was accurate.

LMFAO.

This doesn’t fly any more Allen. You’re done.

“Richest men” is all you need to know.

77% of Americans can’t afford a median-priced home of $495K.



70% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.



140 million Americans are poor or low-income.



100 million Americans have medical debt.

But hey, capitalism is fantastic!!!!
