My opinion, if Trump cuts taxes for everyone but adds a percent or two to the wealthiest, it won't hurt America and it would be popular

We must sacrifice for thr billionaires.

Bullshit.

All your type sacrifice is your lack of gumption, hard work, intelligence, and a willingness to take risks with start-ups. Which is how many billionaires started out.

Owners Aren't Earners

Without the workers, there is no business. But you Plutelickers are always one-sided. Your father-figure bosses may run the business, but their employees make the business run.

Tell that to the many small businesses where the owners are also the (only) workers.

For a "sage" you are quite dumb!
Also you likely are another of those greedy and lazy Leftists that expect "their share" without having to earn it.

Blows out the claim from you Leftists that "evil corporations"


Pull you head out your Marxist-antifa ass.

Your Mirror Is a Camera

If Buttboys for the Bosses' only point is, "We're not those other people," defending their Masters only by attacking the other side, then their posts are pointless.

Does anyone think the Uber wealthy corporate heads are going to want working people to ever get ahead? I got news for you.

I don't have a desperate need for an infallible father figure. And the "Leftists" are your father-figures' sons. No matter how much you grovel before your Lords and Masters, you'll never get adopted by them.

There can be no workers without a business to fill the need. You start with the need, followed by the business, who hires the workers. That's the order - need, business, workers.

You just repeated what he said, genius.

 

[rightwinger]

Then we are in agreement. Workers are last in the chain. There can be no workers without the business.

And no business without workers
It is workers who create wealth

Successful is solely attributed to ones wealth you are correct. Hence the differing classes don't share ideals.

Sperm-Bingo Successes

Birth Classes. Both controlled sides are tricked into ignoring that factor. With all their posturing about "Eat the Rich," we never hear Preppy Progressives propose confiscating trust funds and inheritances. What they ignore, and infloozy us to ignore, is a clue to what really motivates them.

Of course, their Partner Party talks about "moochers" all the time, but the Self-Righteous Rightists let Daddy-moochers off the hook that they need to be hanged on.

I oppose tax increases on anyone until
I see serious and substantive spending cuts and more fiscal responsibility.

What the "Silent Generation" Was Most Silent About

The Plutes get all their tax money back, and then some, from government spending. That's why, for the first time in our history, they approved of the Military-Industrial back in the 50s.

And no workers without the business. It is businesses who create wealth. The workers would have zero money if they weren't working because there were no businesses to work for.

Actually, there is a third group, always ignored, which creates both profits and wages. Those are the inventors, including even those who only make minor improvements.

So corporate patents are the greatest mooching of all. That's why plutocratic parasites have to turn High IQs into nerdy pushovers.

The way I see this is that a 1% increase to the highest earners would destroy the narrative against him that "Trump is for the richest", while at the same time he cuts taxes for everyone else. Also, he can defend his tariffs as being at least a partial replacement of lower taxes.

Just my opinion. I always prefer lower taxes for all but politically it would help. Considering he cut taxes for corporations and is cutting regulations deeply, this would work and the wealthiest can't complain. Capital flight risk occurs anyways, another 1% isn't going to change this.

I recall a billionaire in Germany saying that he supported higher taxes for him and his friends. His reasoning? "I'd rather be wealthy in a rich country than wealthy in a poor country".

That is a profound statement and the logic resonated with me

It will always come down to how you determine wealth, regardless of how it's measured, whiners will always whine.

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

I want trump to advocate for extreme taxation on all Americans who are not on welfare and to expand the welfare class and to abolish all fossil fuels by 2028 and open all borders — especially to foreign gang members — and to remove all vestiges of American history and culture because it’s evil white-supremacist so democrats will oppose each agenda item just because he’s trump and the country will thrive and flourish!

 

[BluesLegend]

Okay you math illiterate 'tax the wealthy' idiots. Name one wealthy person worth $1 trillion dollars...yeah not one. Not even one close to that. Now, your government is taxing, borrowing and spending $7 trillion each and every year. If they confiscated every last dollar of the 'rich' earnings that's like shooting a spitwad at the spending problem.

Tax the wealthy is a SCAM. A government head fake, hey look over there not at our out of control borrowing and spending, over there a wealthy person we'll tax them, see were all good now.

When democrats take over again, I am ALL for them taxing the wealthy. I think it's imperative they do this...I can't wait for that backlash lol

Agreed. America stands for the dollar above all else. There's zero disputing this.

Trump will not cut my taxes..

Good

You are the biggest whiner here.
