The top 1% pays over 40% of Federal income tax. Yet they only get 1 vote. And you think they should pay more. Since they are paying 40% of the tax, shouldn't they get 40% of the vote?
The top 10% pays over 72% of Federal income tax. So shouldn't they get 72% of the vote. With the top 1% getting 40% of the vote, then the 9% should get 32% of the vote.
The bottom 50% pays only 3% of the Federal income tax. So half the tax payers are basically paying nothing, yet they are allowed to vote. Shouldn't the bottom 50% only get 3% of the vote?
By increasing corporate taxes, you are increasing inflation, because they just pass the increase on to the consumer. So wouldn't it be better to not tax corporations?
Why not just have everyone pay 10% Federal, 5% State, & 5% local. The top 1% pay around 26%
No, I bought my 1st house with a mortgage that I could afford, I also bought my 2nd home on a mortgage and payed it off 25 years ago.
I also bought my 1st car brand new 1975 honda civic on a loan. The rest of my cars I paid cash for and buy them 1 or 2 years old. My cars have lasted me on average 10 or more years.
As for robots & AI, yes they are going to cause a lot of people to change their careers. But I believe there will be sufficient jobs for anyone that wants one. Our education system needs to make some big changes. I can see blue states will try and get robot/AI taxes to pay the dead beats. There should be limits on how much of the workforce they will be allowed to replace.
Bottom line: If you want to increase the tax on the rich, then they should have more of a say at the voting booth. Now if you want everyone to pay their fair share, then they should all be taxed at the same rate %. That way everyone has skin in the game. Companies should never be taxed, they just pass it on to the consumer and it causes inflation, just like minimum wage.
Lastly, I doubt I will be responding to you, as your basically a waste of my time. You seem to put little thought into what you say. |
