@markovichglass No they aren't. That is absurd. Look into WHY they weren't paying federal income taxes. And they were still paying billions in taxes. There are still state, local, excise, property, payroll, sales, etc etc etc. Politicians sre the reason taxes are fked.

@MichaelJames-lz7ni No, Logan is right. Lol And they WANT you mad at one guy (because of your own ignorance) instead of the misallocation of your tax dollars by the politicians.

@valkyriefrost5301 So? They made more. Where is the problem? Lawyers and doctors work their ass off to get to college and then work their ass off there while accruing boat loads of debt. Again, where is the problem? You want to penalize the competent and successful while the people who made different choices and make less get off scot free. Penalizing the competent in favor of the incompetent.

@valkyriefrost5301 You dont have to like Trump to see e fact that most peoplensaw a decrease in their taxes under his plan. Most people will now be seeing an increase. As for the wealthy paying taxes, The top 1% pay 39% of all income taxes. The top 10% pay 69%. The top 50% pay 96%. The lower half pay 3%. This does not even include the people who pay zero percent. The bottom half are a net negative as they take more in programs than they pay in. Their average tax rate is 4% while the 1% average tax rate is 27%. The top 1 percent paid a greater share of individual income taxes (37.3 percent) than the bottom 90 percent combined (30.5 percent).Taxpayers with incomes below $30,000 filed nearly 44% of all returns but paid just 1.4% of all federal income tax – in fact, two-thirds of the nearly 66 million returns filed by people in that lowest income tier owed no tax at all. ...so who doesn't pay their "fair" share?

@HoldXtoRespawn 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Exactly. I don't agree with stealing anyone's labor, no matter what the make. That is just envy.

@valkyriefrost5301 They of course could still be hard workers. Most are. However, they made different decisions which led to a different amount of income. Inflation is a real thing. If you increase wages across the board, prices of goods increase as well to make up for the loss in wages. Many places will even give fewer hours or even fire employees. Especially small businesses who don't have the funds and typically run on a budget and employ based on what they can pay. That is a sure way of pricing their business out and getting rid of competitors of big business. Yes that time was before the people were psychologically indoctrinated to get the women out of the house and working so there was dou le the work force and jobs could pay less due to the worker competition. I don't want anyone r8pd in taxes, no matter their wealth. Taxing income is theft of life. You make income by working. Working is your time. Your time is your life. When the state forces you by gun to give a portion of that income, they are stealing their life and property. And the more you succeedz the more they take. That is penalizing the success of people. That is evil. Read some Thomas Sowell or Atlas Shrugged.

@valkyriefrost5301 And to put it into perspective, The top 1% pay 39% of all income taxes. The top 10% pay 69%. The top 50% pay 96%. The lower half pay 3%. This does not even include the people who pay zero percent. The bottom half are a net negative as they take more in programs than they pay in. Their average tax rate is 4% while the 1% average tax rate is 27%. The top 1 percent paid a greater share of individual income taxes (37.3 percent) than the bottom 90 percent combined (30.5 percent).Taxpayers with incomes below $30,000 filed nearly 44% of all returns but paid just 1.4% of all federal income tax – in fact, two-thirds of the nearly 66 million returns filed by people in that lowest income tier owed no tax at all.

@joshuasnore3600 Dude, that is a fkn excuse to get ppl to agree with them stomping on yet another freedom of ours so they can control us. Control, control, control. The nonsense about the rich not paying taxes is BS. They pay most taxes.

@derrickbarksdale5370 Yep. The real answer is the Gov needs to downsize and learn to live within their means like we all have to. But, they want this collapse to 6uild 6ack 6etter so it is all going to plan for them.

@davidbermudez7704 Exactly

@brandonburns5365 Incorrrct. They have paid all owed taxes. They do things to make what they owe to be less. Just like the rest of us. It is called tax avoidance (like we also do) not tax evasion.

@cosmicllama6910 🤦🏻‍♀️ This has nothing to do with capitalism. This is crony corporatism corruption and corrupt politicians due to the fascist state we are under.
