yeah but they’ll just tax us more
Don't something like half of all people pay zero income tax, anyway?
61% of Americans don't pay federal income tax.
61% of Americans paid no federal income taxes in 2020, Tax Policy Center says The Tax Policy Center said 107 million households, or 61% of taxpayers, owed no income taxes in 2020. That's up from 76 million, or 44% of t CNBC⬇️ BOTH ⬆️ of these have to change.
Earn less than $75,000? You may pay nothing in federal income taxes for 2021 A recent report shows that on average, taxpayers with income under $75,000 will have no 2021 tax liability after deductions and credits. CNBCwait so you guys are claiming you’re mad about them taxing Elon musk because they’ll supposedly tax regular people more... but you’re also mad that 61% of people who pay no federal income taxes (mind you these people still pay other forms of tax) and think that “has to change”? hmmmm..... 🤔
like if you’re going to be two-faced and dishonest at least be less obvious about it.
at any rate all this nonsense about taxes is a waste of time when what we really need is a revolution.
Nothing two faced about it.
Just pointing out the hypocrisy of the left calling for more taxes - higher rates and new taxes - for everyone but them, while they, by and large, contribute nothing.
I'm a flat tax guy; either we all pay our 'fair share' or no one pays anything.
Agreed on the revolution. Bring it on.
I’m a NO Income Tax guy. Repeal the 16th Amendment. Abolish ALL income taxes. Abolish the IRS. Abolish all banking laws, rules, and regulations giving the government authority to snoop into your finances.
This would:
1. Drastically shrink the government (well, in theory--in practice, they’d probably just keep spending and inflating until we reach hyperinflations. We’re gonna reach that point eventually anyhow, though, so....)
2. Stop the government stealing a big chunk of your income (directly--they’ll still steal value from you by inflating the currency).
3. Prevent the government from snooping through everyone’s finances. If they have a specific, articulable suspicion that I, personally, have committed a specific crime and need to look at my banking records, they can GO GET A FUCKING WARRANT, the way the Constitution demands.
[aardvarkingmad voice]: no taxes except the taxes to fund draconian crackdowns on the homeless:
there's something funny about you calling portland a people's republic because you don't think there's enough jackbooted thugs roughing up the homeless. such a freudian slip quality to it- you let slip that in spite of the narrative, people's republics are in fact defined by the absence of jackbooted thugs oppressing the underclass.
