The Rich keep jumping ship

[ClosedCaption]

The left really doesn't have an answer as to who is going to pay the taxes formerly paid by the rich does it?

No because the premise is stupid unless you actually fear the day when all the rich people leave America. If that is the case, seek professional help

 

[freedombecki]

Rhetoric reeks.

The left really doesn't have an answer as to who is going to pay the taxes formerly paid by the rich does it?

I can answer it. The facebook guy is moving to Singapore, where the tax on capital gains is ZERO...

...so he'll pay NO TAX on his capital gains.

In order to compete with that, the US tax on capital gains would have to be ZERO...

...so if he stayed a US citizen, he'd pay NO TAX on his capital gains.

So either way, we get ZERO in taxes from him.

You mean the 500 who are leaving yearly?

 

[Cowman]

Wait... so the rich are renouncing US citizenship because they are being taxed(or might be taxed) at rates that are not at all close to the highest they've been taxed in the past?

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

 

[Charles_Main]

The number of rich voluntarily expatriating keeps increasing.....

Shows you how patriotic the rich really are.

Shows how ******* stupid Liberals are.

You think the rich are going to stay out of a sense of Patriotism while you keep telling them they are evil Blood suckers that don't pay their fair share no matter how much they pay?

Please.

Human Beings will always make the Decision to move to Greener Pastures.

If you are going to sit around and whine about how they are un patriotic to leave were fucked.

If we want them to stay, we need to give them reason to.

Period.

Or more to the Point, stop giving them so many Reason to want to leave.

Or we can sit around and call them names while some other nation Benefits from their wealth and the Economic Activity they Create.

fools

That's Bull shit. I am sure he is giving up other things to Move there, I am sure we could have a lower Cap Gains Tax, Thats still not 0 and he would decide to stay.

In fact I bet you could leave the Damn Cap Gains Tax Alone, and just stop feeding into this Class warfare attitude in the Nation and a Lot of the Fleeing Rich would not flee.

Why the hell should they stay here now? So they can pay some of the Highest Taxes in the ******* World, all the while being demonized in the Press for not doing their Fair Share?

lol Please

Your simplistic Liberal Logic also Fails to understand that even if he lived here and Paid 0 we would benefit more than if he lived there. He would spend his Money in our Economy and Generate Tax Revenue that way.

Again your Childish Simple Minded Class Warfare mind has failed you.

I bet you my next pay check that even if he paid 0 income or Cap Gains Taxes. His annual Taxes paid in Property and Sales Taxes would be FAR MORE THAN YOU PAY IN.

You think the rich leave because the press isnt nice to them?

 

[auditor0007]

We should give them everything they want so they stay here!!

I agree; no taxes for the wealthy. Only tax the poor.

I doubt it is one of he Pro's when they are considering staying or going lol.

Again none of you address the real point.

Asshat said we would have to take our Cap Gains to 0 to keep him here and then we would get nothing.

Highlights his basic Failure to Understand our Economy. If he thinks we gain nothing by having a BILLIONAIRE stay here even if he pays NO taxes as opposed to him leaving, then he simply does not get it.

I again Assert that even if he paid NO Cap Gains, and NO Income Tax. The Amount he pays in Property and Sales Taxes would be far more than you, or Me or just about anyone in here will pay in a year in Taxes.

Do you doubt that?

Rich haters run around acting like the Riches money exists in a Vacuum and unless we tax it we don't benefit at all. The Truth is the Rich Spend money, Employ People, Make Large Purchases, and Own Large Amount of Property that they pay Taxes on. All of these things are to our Benefit.

I work in the Home Improvement industry myself. I can tell you if not for some so called Evil Rich Spending a Shit ton on Deco Metal Roofs, and New Widows and Siding the last few month, We would not even be in business.


It might not fit into your Liberal "Compassionate" Logic, but the Truth is we need the Rich far more than they need us. They do pay a HUGE % of all the Taxes paid in this Country. Could they pay more? Maybe, But I know if I had a A lot of Money and paid a Shit ton in Taxes, I would find it very upsetting that all I hear on TV is how Evil, and worthless I am, and How I need to pay even more.

lol

But why am I arguing with a bunch of Brainwashed Liberal Lemmings anyways? You guys will never get it. Not until all the Rich have Fled and your Dream of an Equally Poor Nation is Realized.

 

[American Horse]

500 people leaving a year in a country with 310million people in it.... dot eh math

That 500 is the most recent quarterly (3-month) number. Comparing that number with 310-million is also not an applicable comparison. The more correct comparison would be with the number of people of comparable wealth as those which are leaving. On that more correct basis these are significant losses.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.

And Goodbye to further revenue? Right?

And Oh, yeah...

MOO!

[Listening]

Kansas City, Kansas to the north of Johnson County raised taxes and drove out all their businesses.

The place is a rat hole now.

What we have to look forward to on a larger scale I suppose.

 

[bodecea]

The number of rich voluntarily expatriating keeps increasing.....

Shows you how patriotic the rich really are.

That's what un-American socialists like Obama, Biden, and Pelosi claim......

Seems to me the first real American patriots fought a war AGAINST excessive taxes....

Actually, our taxes were lower than in England proper. We were revolted against Taxation without Representation.

Are you able to vote? If so...you are Represented. Unfortunately, under our lobby system, some are more represented than others.

 

[Charles_Main]

We should give them everything they want so they stay here!!

I agree; no taxes for the wealthy. Only tax the poor.

Nah, we should just leave things they way there are, where the Rich pay the VAST majority of all Taxes, and just STOP Demonizing them and saying they don't pay enough.

lol

 

[Seawytch]

If the rich leave, will they still own a ridiculous amount of our nation's wealth without paying their fair share of the taxes?

Cool. Cut a check to the IRS and help make up the deficit they leave, mmmk? That work for ya?
