stupid s*** like healthcare a living wage daycare paid parental leave cheap college and training for opportunity and great vacations and infrastructurelike every other major country and every thing AOC and Bernie want. Communism my ass. no one's talking about 75%. You ridiculous brainwashed functional moron. In the 50s corporations paid 1/3 of the taxes, now 10% make it 17%. Jesus Christ you're unbelievable idiots. Mainly though it's rich people who are paying the same percent as you are in all taxes. A ridiculous giveaway for 30 years now. Only your ridiculous propaganda machine and your ignorance make this mess possible....
Moron! This country is now 26 trillion dollars in debt. When you take more away from businesses, businesses pack up and leave. What don't you get about that? The top 20% pay over 80% of all collected income taxes for the rest of us. If 80% is not enough, what percentage is? Other taxes don't count because if you live the average lifespan in this country, you get all that money back and more. You local taxes go to provide for local things you use like street lights, emergency services, snow plowing, new roads or road repairs. All that money is spent on you and everybody else. Property taxes run your county, schools and various other entities.
Income taxes are what pays for all our federal expenses and more: the employees of the federal government, all the agencies, all the federal government courthouses and buildings, all our military. Free college, daycare, trade schools, healthcare all come out of our federal income tax.
