…maybe if the rich people paid their fair share… both in taxes AND in wages… people wouldn’t be living in poverty… cutting back on senseless wars could help too…
You tax their WEALTH. They make damn sure they don’t get a salary to avoid taxes
So tax the company based on profit margin. Corporations being considered people while not being held under the same scrutiny is one of the biggest problems.
Companies are taxed for their profit. They are careful to not make a taxable profit. They can spend what would be profit on R&D or advertising or expansion
Fair share means ending the tyranny of individual ownership of the Means of Production. Taxes are a good start though.
Really took me a while to figure out they were trying to make me think of people on benefits rather than shareholders
They’re saying this to Bernie Sanders? Bro what,… have you heard literally anything he’s said?
If Bernie shot off a tweet that said “you could write me in”, I would be DOWN.
Bet he would take general… we would need to make them actually count though.
Maybe next election when Trump is in jail
Ya, gotta make sure Genocidal Joe has a solid shot of finishing the job with the Palestinians.
And that he gets us resoundingly balls deep in military conflicts with every middle eastern country.
‘people working zero hours a week’
Did anyone else take this as meaning “politicians”?
I can’t tell if this is ironic or unironic.
It has the TPUSA logo so it was made unironically.
Like landlords? Investors? Heirs?
I honestly thought this was about landlords…
Exactly! “Investing” isn’t a real job.
My landlord worked so hard to inherit a third of the properties in town.
Value add!
Lol, “high taxes”. You think that’s the problem in the US?
When you add all of the taxes up - yeah it’s pretty high, especially considering our infrastructure and healthcare situation. ROI is absolutely shit.
You mean investors? Landlords? Capitalists? Retirees on social security?
This is especially stupid because most low wage workers have a negative income tax due to the EITC.
I was so confused not knowing what community this was in. Im like, “…but that’s what Bernie’s all about, not giving out money to rich executives”
I fucking paid my taxes to protect me from poverty if I became disabled… little did I know that disability only pays 11k/year and if you have more than $2k in the bank or in valuables, they take away your food and Medicaid. That $2k asset limit hasn’t changed since 1974. We can’t fix a vehicle on that, we can’t pay our rent, we can’t survive on max $2k at any given time. If adjusted for inflation, it would be $13k. That’s enough to survive on.
conservatives>wood chipper>feet first
Airtight Republicunt logic.
It’s my higher value contribution to profits that are going to people who don’t work.
