You are asking ridiculous questions that go against human nature.What is your solution? Wealth tax? I've supported that for awhile now. I've begged democrats to impose their wealth tax on the rich, i do so because I know that will be the end of the democrat party, and they know it too, which is why we'll never see it
Democrats love their money too ya know. Why is it we don't see the virtuous liberal billionaires just handing money to the government willingly?
Again, within the span of a little over a year, everyone went from making $7.50 per hour to making $15 per hour, and it didn't move the needle. Where do we go next?
What needs to be done (between the parties) is come up with a fair tax plan that doesn't impede the rich from getting richer but also gives the middle and lower classes some additional tools. This means coming up with a plan where the rich pay a bit more than they are paying now and the lower income pay a little less than they are paying now.
Keep in mind that the rich were paying 70% in the 1950 and the nation was doing fine. I am NOT saying that we should go back to that kind of taxing as that was a bit on the extreme, but going down to the 15% that Trump says he is going to go to, is the opposite side of the extreme. All extremes are bad.
We need fairer tax laws that don't overly help the rich. The rich don't really need help as they have the talent to make big money no matter what the tax rate is. Why are we helping them make even more??????
