The reason we're only hearing about spending cuts

[Mac-7]

I paid $28,000 in federal income taxes in 2024.

Tesla paid $0 on $2.3 billion in income.

This is the problem with our tax code.

Tesla Reported Zero Federal Income Tax on $2 Billion of U.S. Income in 2024

Tesla reported $2.3 billion of U.S. income in 2024 but paid zero federal income tax. Over the past three years, the Elon Musk-led company reports $10.8 billion of U.S. income on which its current federal tax was just $48 million.

Yeah, so?

Is musk to blame for that or congress?

 

[Nostra]

Using the worlds richest man as an example of tax imbalances is perfeectly understandable.

Yeah, he just isn’t paying his fair share, right you Limey scum?

 

[imawhosure]

SOOOOOOOOOOOO MOONGLOW, you are now admitting that under the Biden Administration, the government was controlled by corporations, and rich folks? Because if you claim it is all about Trump, why would RICH people cut spending, when they could get some of it in their own pockets?

Honestly GLOW WORM, we are kinda chuckling. You have Musk losing more money than the whole Democratic party could ever earn in 20 years, but he is doing it to fleece the Treasury!

I have never thought of you as dumb, but now, I am beginning to wonder; although, it could be you are just going along with a LEFTIST narrative.

P.S. Moonglow, superstar, legend in his/her own mind------------> If he made that much money, and now LOST as much money as your side claim he did, then he isn't going to pay ANYTHING again!

And who do YOU think created that tax code? I will give you 3 guesses, and the first 2 do not count!

No surprise, of course. To some of us. The least we can do is install a minimum effective tax rate.

Limbaugh convinced the guy in the trailer home that what was good for a billionaire is good for a guy in a trailer home.

That guy is still in that trailer home, voting Republican. The billionaire's net worth has increased exponentially.

What was their taxable income in 2024?

 

[imawhosure]

Right on cue.

PATHETIC answer for an OP!

 

[Mac1958]

What was their taxable income in 2024?

It must have been zero. Obviously.

 

[Billiejeens]

It must have been zero. Obviously.

IMA sit this right here -

Math is hard, harder if you're a liberal.....

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

It must have been zero. Obviously.

So, a $0 payment was proper. Good to know.

 

[imawhosure]

$2.3B in net profits.

$25.71B in income.

Hey SUPERSTAR MACAFLOOZY------->Show us his income tax return was ILLEGAL, and we will join you.

If you can't, what we see is YOU cherry picking people that you politically have an ax to grind with, while ignoring everyone else who used the same, LEGAL, methods.

Get you SH** together! Whatever cred you ever had, you have blown out the window, and look as weak, or weaker than Jose Biden!!

All of you have to ask yourselves........... why does this supposed Wall Street Maven known as MACAFLOOZY, only respond with one line, and NEVER wants to get into a conversation/debate, where he can show his political chops by asserting his brilliance?

If you can answer that.........lol...........you will also be answering why the Leftists posters have socks-)

It is a sad state of affairs...........but truth be told..............when you engage one of them, you have probably engaged 3 of them if YOU count their socks-) Ain't (is ain't a word-) that correct IM, Curriedgoats, and at least 2 others who are one in the same, lol!

Always fascinating to watch them generously jumping in to illustrate my point for me, while simultaneously tossing out personal insults.

This place is a HOOT.

"dont get rid of expenditures! Tax the rich at a higher rate!"
"ZOMG the rich are taking advantage of expenditures that every person and company enjoys! Viva La Revolution!"

.

"The rich are so greedy ... Why can't we just take their money ...
So we can pretend we are good people" ...

I thought I was gonna owe around 8-10K this year....I got a modest refund.

Well worth the cost of professionals doing your taxes and advising you what to keep track of.

We shouldn't have a taxation system that's so complex that you have to hire professionals to keep the most of your earned money.

So you're against leftwing green tax incentives now? That's a start.

 

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

So you're against leftwing green tax incentives now?

I was supportive of them before?

That's a start.

That's your ignorant tribal mentality.

You operate as programmed.

And so, until MACAFLOOZY actually engages as a Leftist loon, admits what he is, then tries to change minds by his logic.............what can we say about MACAFLOOZY?
