Comments by "Grenade Tennis" (@hughjass1044) on "Who Joe Biden REALLY Wants to Tax" video.
This is perhaps the most prescient and important video Andrew has ever done! This message NEEDS to get to every working person, entrepreneur and investor out there so they can avoid the tsunami that's coming. The ultra wealthy are not, never have been and never will be, the target of government thugs. In the first place, those people are the politicians' favorite donors so they won't lay a finger on them but also, when you're that wealthy, you have unlimited resources to structure your money and fight to keep it. The 7, 8 and 9 figure people are in that danger zone of being just rich enough to be worth going after but not rich enough to really put up a formidable defense. They are also just wealthy enough that the politicians can demonize them to the welfare classes. Governments after all, are cowards; they don't pick fights with the powerful, they go after the weak who they can hold up as villains but who can't fight back.

@NorthStarPNW First, how much do you trust what Trump says, second, how much wealth does Trump really have; even if we take the high estimates, compared to Bezos, Musk or any of the major corporations and finally, Trump has a long history of dodging taxes so he's made himself a target. It's likely a case of several different kinds of malfeasance at once.

@NorthStarPNW Besides, we're not even really talking about the same thing. I'm talking about politicians who formulate policy and pass laws that may favor a certain segment of the tax base. You're talking about the IRS which collects taxes in accordance with existing law. The IRS goes after people who illegally avoid taxes. Politicians, by way of the laws they pass, can help people legally avoid taxes.
