Jeez I hate intentional ignorance........... If you're one of the 1.5% of Americans making more than $231,450 a year, your marginal tax rate will go up slightly — money you earn above $231,450 will be taxed at 37% instead of 33%. If you're one of the 0.6% of Americans making more than $500,000 a year, your marginal rate will go up from 39.6% to 43%. Above $2,000,000 the rate will be 48%, and above $10,000,000 the rate will be 52%. These are tax increases that will only affect the very, very wealthy. On the other hand, the vast majority of Americans will see significant savings when factoring in tax and healthcare changes under Bernie's plans.
I respect him for being genuine enough to tell the truth as he perceives it. We need Bernie Sanders and Ron Pauls to have real policy debates.
FUCK BERNIE! FUCK SOCIALISM IN GENERAL... AND ALL WHO SUPPORT IT! SOCIALISM IS GREEDY AND IMMORAL! My Grandfather advised me, "you only deserve what you earn for yourself". Even so far as, "If you plan on eating regular, you better also plan on working". FUCK WEALTH REDISTRIBUTION IN ALL ITS FORMS AND ALL WHO SUPPORT IT! (But don't get me started.)
yeah I get it, you pay more taxes but you get more benefits (after the government has taken their cut). I'm all for progressive income taxes, but when you start taxing things you don't like, you are just taxing things you don't understand. It's a socialist form of bigotry. Bernie (and Trump) don't understand what I do. It doesn't look like work to them, so they can safely tax it. what we don't understand we fear and what we fear we hate The only reason Bernie hates me is because he fears me, and the reason he fears me is because he doesn't understand me.
Most often, the haves (such as Gate, Jobs, Bezos, etc. ) in a modern democratic society would be quite willing happily to provide help to the have-nots with various forms/ways (including creating such as medical research jobs, food manufacturing jobs, farming jobs, mining jobs, restaurants, film production jobs, etc. ) It'd be nice and ideal if the haves are able to create and provide enough jobs required by All the have-nots. However, the reality is ... ...
the haves are anybody the haves more than me if everybody was exactly the same there would be no inequality and the best way to make everybody the same is to punish anybody who is better
