‘We Are Part of the Problem’: Billionaires and Heirs Demand Wealth Tax

Maybe I should kick my mom out of our other house. Maybe Bernie would buy it from me for her?

Quote from Assi

As long as illegals get em before American citizens, he has my vote(s). My Dad's too.

I see what you did there

Quote from lazs

I kinda like no income tax at all... just a sales tax on everything.

The less income you have the more the percentage of your income goes towards SALE taxes.

Quote from MiloMorai

The less income you have the more the percentage of your income goes towards taxes.

Bullshit

Forgot the word SALE.

Poor people, immigrants, (esp those with KIDS) don't pay shit for income tax.

They actually get far "more back" than they pay in.

If you're getting more back than you paid in, it's not a refund.

And... You're welcome.

Thing about a sales tax is everytime it went up... even a tiny bit.... everyone would notice and get pissed.

So now Colonel sanders wants to give everyone a free home... and he is gonna pay for it by taxing the one percent at the top of the wealth chain. Now.... that makes like 10 multi trillion dollar plans all supposedly being funded by taxes on the top 1% so far..... pretty sure that they don't have that much money.

Course.... after a few years of the socialists in power the top 1% of income earners will be like $100k a year.... the bottom 99% will be like $95k a year.

lazs

And a loaf of bread will cost $100, and a wait in line.

And the shelves will be empty when you finally get to the front.

At least you and the other three families of strangers you live with will have a nice little free house.

And... You're welcome.

You notice they still all claim they got "money back" even though they didn't pay in.

I wrote some alternate lyrics back when John Denver was wanting a Russian ride into space:

Verse 1

Standin' in the breadline waitin' in the snow

I want to buy a copy of manifesto

I love this place downtown Moscow

Thank god I'm a communist

Chorus:

Well I got me a hammer

and I got me a sickle

Pocket full of Rubles

Ain't worth a plug nickel

A bottle of Vodka

I'm a gonna get pickled

Thank god I'm a communist

Verse 2

Shoot all the people in Bucharest

Jail the survivors and quell the unrest

I'm in the secret police

Yeah we're the best

Thank god I'm a communist.

I have a couple more verses, I guess I'll have to dust it off.

That was actually pretty good Holden.

I think @-gg- and StRaNgEdAyS should collaborate on this, record it and name it "Ode to Boroda".
