i pay 21% on average, but i am a tax expert.
This is literally the entire proposal of Trickle-Down Reganomics we adopted in the 80s. It’s not some unintended end result, it’s the conscious decision that was made.
It’s extra fun to contemplate the fact that billionaires also do not work.
In fact. Us poors will make more money for people that are already wealthy than we will ever for ourselves.
News just in, bear shits in woods.
Not for much longer.
Won’t be too many bears left…
And that’s news?
I’m old enough to remember spotting Michael Jackson’s first album in an obscure record store in SF and wondering if this guy was any good, and I’ve always knows rich people pay less taxes than working stiffs. In fact, I’m almost certain that’s where the idiom to get stiffed comes from.
I also don’t remember a time when I haven’t thought the next time I come across a rich prick, if he’s enough of a prick, I might just slit his throat for the sheer satisfaction of doing it.
i swear these headlines and supposed “studies” are getting dumber and dumber.
And water is wet.

Um, it’s unfair that I have to pay a capital gains tax at all, sweetie.
Why? You didn’t do any work to get that capital gain, you just bet on the right horse in the market. A $5k capital gain is just like winning $5k at the track, and should be taxed the same way.

Exactly! If I didn’t do any work, I shouldn’t pay any tax. It’s simple, really.

As an avid gambler, I don’t think gambling should be taxed either.
At least you’re honest
I feel like they’re being facetious, but it’s getting harder to tell these days.
Disagree. If you earn $1 a year I think you should be paying something in taxes, possibly getting it back (less interest), but you should have skin in the game.
It’s for private equity, Sweetie. NEXT!
