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

[GreatestIam]

I would gladly pay

Let me finish the right wing thinking.

--- for more prison guards instead of housing for the poor, even if it is near double to cost.

Go the math, stupid.

Where does the government get the power to play Robin Hood?

??

Look up, power of the purse and taxes.

??

Look up, power of the purse and taxes.

Really?? You’re suggesting the cotus gives Congress the power to redistribute wealth?

The “power is the purse” deals with raising revenue through bills, not placing unequal taxation on people

Since Reagan or a couple years before the rich waged class warfare on the middle class.

1. Tax breaks to the rich. Reagan Bush and Trump did it.
2. Hiring illegals. We have an illegal employer problem that rips the middle class off.
3. Shifting the tax burden more on to us.
4. Breaking unions
5. Sending good paying manufacturing jobs overseas. Even Trump wants to tariff but too much. He will start a trade war with China we don't need.
6. Outsourcing phone jobs to India
7. Our pay has gone up 18% since Reagan the rich went up 1322%

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 favor a system that balances taxes on income and wealth. With today's system far too much of that balance favors those of wealth. I'd like to see the capital gains, inheritance, and various other taxes eliminated. I'd prefer a single tax rate on income, with income being simply defined as the net of all the money the taxpayer took in minus his/her expenses required to raise that dough. I want a tax code that treats a dollar here no differently than a dollar there.

As of April 2023, the tax code was comprised of 4,138,788 words. The vast portion of which give those empowered legal ability to have the dough they take in receive preferential tax treatment over somebody else's buck. And that somebody else is the common citizen.

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.

It has to do with making yourself feel better by taking something away from someone else, instead of making something for yourself.

I'm sorry your daddy never loved you. I'm sorry you're a failure.

"Hey Kids, Ask Your Daddy to Buy You Thin Shiny New Toy! If He Says He Can't Afford It, He's a Loser!"

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

And the richkids are the ones who take from their Daddies instead of making something on their own, including following the Plutes' unmanly mandate of taking out toxic student loans and living in depressing college poverty on low-paying part-time jobs.

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

You mean rich mommy and daddy reproduced and gave an inheritance to their kids? What’s wrong with that? At least mommy and daddy made the money to leave to their kids.

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.

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

So raise the taxes on the wealthy. Do you really think it’s the wealthy that will pay those taxes?

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%.

Leaving generational wealth is Biblically sound.

Proverbs 13:22
A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.

This is where I think socialism is so good. This is why I love reading material by Karl Marx and socialist thinkers.

Even many European countries have more socialism than America does and look how much better off the average European citizen is then in the US.


Richard D. Wolff explains it so well, so brilliantly.

Socialists are anti-social. They come from the same class as the Wall Street tyrants. So whatever they preach, they are power-hungry entitled elitists because of what they were born to and never worked for.

More proof is that they are practically all products of the universities, which are designed only for richkids living off an adult allowance.

No worries. Many who inherit wealth soon squander it, returning it to the general economy.

How to avoid being the 70 percent who squander their inheritance

House the poor economically. A percentage will destroy. Governments involved will pay with the lawyers at the ready.

How does that explain millions of students with a $Trillion of student debt?

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.

That is an afterthought to the main point.
