Trump Continues to Lie About Tariff Revenue

[AntonToo]

You’re confused…the more one consumes the more tax one pays…there’s nothing more “FAIR” than that.
You do still care about what’s fair…right?

Under consumption taxation:

If you consume 100% of your income, you pay tax on 100% of your income. (thats more like what poor do)

If you consume 50% of your income and invest the other 50% of your income you get taxed on only 50% of your income. (thats more like what rich do)

Clearly such a system would be advatagous to the well off who now pay most of Federal income taxes and more burdensome to low and middle income class that none or low % Federal income tax.

Read above untill you get it.

You’re still trying not to understand…If one cannot afford to consume one can simply elect not to consume and reduce their tax liability. Is that really a controversial concept?
When I can’t afford a Ferrari I don’t buy a Ferrari.

Low income people spend (read consume) all their money to get by.

Wtf are you even talking about?

 

[TNHarley]

Dont Taz Me Bro you are a mod come and fix your thread. Don't abandon it.

 

[scruffy]

I would predict that if Trump keeps the existing tariffs as high as they are now, this country's economy is going to flirt with recession level consumer spending. Prices are going keep rising and jobs are going to keep falling and that ain't good. I have seen absolutely nothing that indicates increased domestic manufacturing either. Plus, inflation will continue to rise too, although maybe not like it did in 2021 unless he gets that big rebate thing passed through Congress.

It takes a while. There will be some pain in the meantime. We knew this up front.

Hold the **** on…”Low income people” make bad life choices, they have more kids than they can afford, they smoke and drink more, they run up healthcare tabs they pass on to others…Generally speaking they are dogshit human beings riding the coattails of legitimate folks…**** EM’ ALL, they use public schools more than I do, they destroy our healthcare, they use roadways and infrastructure more than I do, they populate our jails and prisons…**** EM’….it’s time they pay to play.

And that’s the truth of it, you rightwing nuts don’t give a shit about people with low income, that’s why your policies are against their interest and the rest is pretense.

Now if only we can get the rest of Republicans to own up to that to make them a permanent minority.

YOU must be very low income.

He's not a Republican.

 

[Unkotare]

... they use public schools more than I do...

But YOU need it more.

 

[AntonToo]

He's not a Republican.

No matter what he calls himself he is part of Republican constituency.

 

[Unkotare]

No, he is not.

 

[AntonToo]

No, he is not.

Well there you go again, resorting to denials that people like BrokeLoser are reliable Republican voters.

I know it maybe uncomfortable for you to admit it, but it's still true - Republicans is who racists and biggots vote for.

 

[Unkotare]

Well there you go again, resorting to denials that people like BrokeLoser are reliable Republican voters.

He represents nothing but his own fear and weakness. I doubt he votes at all. Probably can't find the polling station.

 

[Clipper]

I'm sure that must either be a typo or Trump misspoke intending to mean $18 billion. I hope the Donald gets a good long rest over the Christmas holiday, he deserves it.

He rolls his big ass put of the sack every day at the crack of noon, then indulges his cable news addiction for a few hours. How much rest does the orange fuckup need?

And did you witness this yourself last time you were invited to a slumber party at Mar A Lago or the White House?

You're so entertaining!

Yeah, but it might take a long while, enough to cost the GOP bigly in this year's election and again in 2028. If we don't see the light at the end of the tunnel then people are gonna get off the train.
