Trump Wants No Tax For Americans Making Less Than $150,000 A Year

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

This Communistic look on corporations needs to be obliterated.

They've had their free reign for far too long, and have destroyed our society, commercialism, and business ethics.

ALL companies, businesses, and corporations should be forced by federal law to do business they CORRECT way that it used to be done.

Do you realize that you just made two completely contradictory statements? What you are advocating in your second comment is the Communistic look that you are bitching about in your first statement!

You don't even have the first clue what you are talking about with statements like that!

Then how is Japan one of the Strongest economies in the world? Their Debt is far worse than ours on a Debt to GDP Ratio.

I honestly don't know how they do it, but they do. Do you know how?

I don’t think their economy has grown in a couple decades now. Maybe I’m wrong but I don’t remember seeing their economy being all that great.

We have no income tax in Nevada and there are plenty of other states that don’t have it either. Nobody is starving in the streets because of a higher sales tax in lieu of it.

Nobody is starving in Nevada?

Really?



I’m not stating an income tax is the way to go but it does speak to what “we" are willing to accept as a society as long as “we” are not directly affected.

And republicans are prescribing cuts to public assistance. We’re increasing spending on the military...clearly that is what is needed since we spend hundreds of billions more than any other nation (most of whom are our allies--for the time being).

its a bizarre time in our history.

I would rather see a flat tax on personal income and a flat tax on corporate income with no deductions, but this would certainly be better than the current code and I would support it, but don't hold your breath. It's unlikely to happen. If it's actually proposed, it will be interesting to see who stands against it and why.

The title of your thread is laughable.

Trump has proven that he can turn any Republican in Congress into his little *****. If he really wanted every American making less than $150K to pay no taxes, then that easily could have been put into the Big Ugly Bill.

Yep

Corporate and business tax is nothing but a consumer tax by another name. Companies build in taxes to prices just like they build in material and labor costs.

Taxes are a shared burden. The idea that any corporate tax hikes are just passed to consumers is false.

For every one person in that condition by true hard luck there are many more in that condition by their repeated bad choices.

It has existed in every administration.

So that was a lie.

Flat Tax is probably the single worst modern economic idea, right next to the gold standard.

Absolutely awful. A product of minds addled by Mises and zero hedge and Ayn Rand.

Its not flat. Its inverted to yelp the hyper wealthy. You and I pay more tax than billionaires.

And yet only demofks screaming fair share with no explanation

Every American should be taxed equally to support the government

The Flat Tax is the best way to do that

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

Every American should be taxed equally to support the government

And again, the worst simpleton economic idea in modern history. Progressive tax is of course better, because we like having a middle class.

You would still have a middle class

Income, all income, would be taxed at the same rate for everyone

I think the rich would actually pay more tax than they do now

But the poor would be forced to contribute their fair share also

Everyone should be treated differently by government, depending on who/what they are, who they know and who's in power.

That's in the Constitution I think.

Show me how.

CNN said so -- that's how.

What happened to "everyone must pay their fair share" OP?

So you support taxing the poor? Guess what. I do too

 

[MarcATL]

So you support taxing the poor? Guess what. I do too

They're taxed already.
