War on The Rich: Dumbest Idea in History of Man

[The Rabbi]

thin skinned wingers who hurl insults and cry when it comes back to them are funny

Pfffttttttt.

phew.

 

[The Rabbi]

Funny, you just keep on thinking that.

what? that you're a troll? i will.

as for the rest, you're the one who opened your yap and spewed about things you know nothing about.

a "successful businessman" would get the lay of the land first.

dismissed.

What in the hell are you rambling about? The rich get richer and the poor get poorer, god this must really sting you to know I'm on the better end.

Jillian is incapable of engaging in any meaningful argument using facts and logic. Don't even try.

Why not try with her. I try with you.

see, rabbit is bitter because he's an uneducated pissant and it makes him feel better to try to diminish others when they point out that he doesn't know anything.

Translation: I'm getting my tushy kicked here right and left so I better post some more insults.

What 'war on the rich'?

what do you define as a war on the rich? wanting the top 1% to pay taxes in the same proportion that middle class people do? wanting to stop tax cuts for corporatists under the lie that it somehow raises income for workers?

The top 1%of earners pay about 87% of income taxes. They would be happy to have that burden reduced to what the middle class pays, which is often nothing.

They make most of the money, so they pay most of the taxes. If the "job creators" actually did anything to broaden the tax base, other than just trying to shift their burden on to much less wealthy people, their share would go down and no one would despise them for being spoiled-rotten crybabies.

They pay a disproportionate amount. They actually pay a higher percentage of all income taxes than they ever have. Or did you miss that fact in your rant?

Yeah it's called a progressive tax structure, been around a long time, maybe you heard of it.

The fuck you say? That a middle class income often pays no income tax? You are full of shit or been drinking all day.
Whatever.

47% of income earners pay no income tax. That has to include plenty of middle class people. Not that you would know what one looked like. Hint: Those are the people who pass you while you're holding the sign.

You been drinking all day. Or you are being particularly stupid. Either way, its not worth discussing cause what you are claiming is fucking crazy.

I'd rather watch KC get their ass handed to them as opposed to handing you yours.

 

[Discombobulated]

There is no war against the rich,,,,,,rich folks won that war a long time ago. The whole system is rigged to benefit the rich at the expense of the middle class while blaming the poor for everything.

 

[francoHFW]

After 30 years of voodoo, all five quintiles of the population pay about the same in all taxes and fees, about 21% of their income.. Payroll taxes are now more than fed income taxes. RWers who go on about the rich paying most taxes are brainwashed functional morons.

 

[Dad2three]

Once again, if the distribution of wealth is not a zero sum game, why do businesses fight so hard against raising the minimum wage, I mean,

according to you people, it's not going to come of their pockets!

Once again tell me how someone else's net worth affects your net worth.

If I 'make' a million dollars, I accumulated money from other people. I'm not actually producing cash, I'm acquiring theirs. Therefore, others have collectively lost a million dollars of purchasing power to me.

These people can't go demand new money just because I have all of their money.

They go broke, I get rich, and income inequality is a thing.


Wealth is a Zero-Sum Game


Conservative damagogues like Limbaugh have been able to convince the public that the huge incomes of the wealthiest Americans are irrelevant to those who make moderate-to-low incomes. They even suggest that the more money the wealthiest Americans make, the more wealth will trickle down to the lower classes.

If you've swallowed this line of conservative garbage, get ready to vomit. As all conservative economists know, and deny to the public that they know, wealth is a zero-sum game. That is true at both the front end—when income is divided up, and the back end—when it is spent.

The Front End of Zero-Sum: Dividing the Loot

There is only so much corporate income in a given year.


The Zero-sum Nature of economics

Communists Retards and their parasitic supporters are always using neologisms as a subterfuge to steal from "A" to give to "B".

In the "Communists Manifesto "Their leader Karl Marx described the strategy as follows

"The proletariat will use its political supremacy to wrest, by degree, all capital from the bourgeoisie, to centralize all instruments of production in the hands of the state…"

.

you should probably study up on what communism is.

I have and so have you.

The ONLY difference is that you know that if you call yourself a communist the great majority of people will reject you. But if you use neologisms such as "zero-sum game" , progressive, "compassionate conservatism" as subterfuges the masses will not understand what they are buying. Its a confidence scam.

.

Libertarians are frauds and parasites but unfortunately have been successful in hiding their dangerous disease under war hating, and freedom loving. Sadly their freedom isn't freedom, it is chaos and opens the door to a real loss of democracy.

They unwittingly use the protections, benefits and accomplishments government has to offer to create their fortunes, while pompously declaring they did it all on their own.

Clueless igets, everyone.

 

[Boss]

Isn't it amusing to watch how they stumble around trying to explain the dismal failures of their socialist policies in the war against the rich? Oh, it's so terrible and awful, those mean old rich people just keep outsmarting them at every turn... woe is me!

Liberals are the saddest clowns in the dum-dum circus.

The more of that income that is used to pay workers, the less profit the corporation makes. The less profit, the less the stock goes up. The less the stock goes up, the less the CEO and the investors make. It’s as simple as that. Profit equals income minus expenses. No more, no less. Subtract the right side of the equation from the left side and the answer is always zero. Hence the term, “zero-sum.”

You don't know what income is going to be before you pay the workers, nor do you know what the profit will be. The workers have to be paid before a dime of income is realized or profit made. As much as you wish to turn this into a simple math problem, that's not how capitalist business works. There are many unknown variables and the formula for profit doesn't always work out in favor of the capitalist. It is a risk that is taken and many capitalists boldly take that risk, nothing is guaranteed in capitalism.

You want to fool stupid people into believing your lies about capitalism because that's what Marxists do. They want to convince people that Marxism (or their current form of it) is the best idea man has ever devised and nothing is further from the truth. Marxism DESTROYS the best idea man has ever devised, free market capitalism.

Marxist? lol

Parrots repeat what they hear. The RW media doesn't profit from educating their listeners. They know the money is in saying outrageous things that fit their listeners ideology. The listeners want to be outraged. The RW media produces the outrageous material. Truth not required. It's a symbiotic relationship.

So, to the extent a corporation can keep from sharing the wealth with workers—the ones who created the wealth to begin with—investors and executives get a bigger slice of the income pie and become richer.

Don't you have anything better to post? Same old bullshit.

you should probably ask yourself the same question.

typical winger thinking anyone who isn't as intellectually limited as you are should be run off the board.

I come up with new stuff every day or every hour. this guy posts the same article every hour of every day. Nice try. Now mind your own business or I forgot you don't have one.

if you come up with idiocy, it doesn't matter how many different ways you say it.

as for not having a business, i'm pretty sure i pay more in taxes than you earn a year. now quiet, troll, or i'll tell your mommy you're using the computer in the basement again.

You pay over a million a year in taxes? No Way! It's already been establishedthat I've been a successfulll business owner since age 18. I'm 28 and could retire. the top 1% that you just LOVE. Keep reaching. You pay taxes on welfare?

You avoided my counterpoint which totally destroyed your meme, then proceeded to label me and denigrate by claiming I am some kind of "listener" who doesn't think for himself. I think that is YOU and what you are doing is projecting. You're a mush brain who hasn't thought his arguments out very well. When you get your ass schooled by a smarter person, you revert to being the typical empty-headed drone jerkoff of the left.

What's your excuse? No valid argument needs to be punched up with hyperbole or abuse, a reasonable person talks reasonably and readily concedes points when they are valid. You probably even think you are making entirely valid arguments instead of just using the framework of economics to be a dick.

"They pay a disproportionate amount. They actually pay a higher percentage of all income taxes than they ever have. "

YET, FOR THE SHARE OF INCOME THEY TAKE (TAKE), THEY PAY ABOUT 40% LESS THAN THE TAX BURDEN THAT INCOME HAD 1945-1980!!!


CBO finds that, between 1979 and 2007, income grew by:

275 percent for the top 1 percent of households,
65 percent for the next 19 percent,
Just under 40 percent for the next 60 percent, and
18 percent for the bottom 20 percent.


From 1992 to 2007 the top 400 earners in the U.S. saw their income increase 392% and their average tax rate reduced by 37%

It s the Inequality Stupid Mother Jones

The fortunate 400

400 tax returns reporting the highest incomes in 2009.

Six American families paid no federal income taxes in 2009 while making something on the order of $200 million each.
another 110 families paid 15 percent or less in federal income taxes.
The fortunate 400 David Cay Johnston Reuters

The 400 richest Americans used to pay 30% of their income on the average to Uncle Sam(but 55% in 1955).


Overall, the top 400 paid an average income tax rate of 19.9 percent, the same rate paid by a single worker who made $110,000 in 2009. The top 400 earned five times that much every day.

Just 82 of the top 400 were taxed in accord with the Buffett rule, which proposes a minimum tax of 30 percent on annual incomes greater than $1 million.
