politics

60% at a million is still pretty high

40% is really fucking high already

60% is crazy

More than 50% at any bracket will never seem quite right

these numbers aren't that big or high, like Democrats want you to think they are

I mean, as far as I understand its 60% on income after 400k

this is a tax on the top ~15% of earners

and yes Pika, but the other rates go up too

And not every "rich" person has the luxury of just sitting on their earnings

that's just the top bracket

well thats retarded

lower the rates from like 300k and down, raise it for 400k and up

fuck that

lets cripple all entrepreneurs if they are successful

who needs innovation

Spooky had it right earlier

<50k, 50k-100k, 100k+ should be the three brackets it should cap out somewhere in the low 30%s

At the risk of sounding cliche, all this does is help out the extremely wealthy mega-corporate folks

It went from billionaires to millionaires to 400k

When does that go lower

okay lets do it darwinian style

No taxes

99% on the first 200k

Repeal 16th

no taxes beyond

lol

literally only the rich survive

Okay jew

see ya later boys

well, that's not actually much better off than I am now thinking about it

Just fucking tax all at the same rate

Okay no

10% flat tax

flat tax is fine ofr some things, not for income

tiered taxes makes sense to me, I don't know what the optimal amount for what you actually need tax dollars for is though

would I be wrong is saying lower taxes would make shit cheaper

no

That way people won’t need to inflate prices to keep profit

they would not make things cheaper

things do not go down only up

when has costs ever went down in the US

on goods

before the petrol dollar ruined everything

prices never go down, that's not how inflation works

That would be deflation yes

sustained deflation neer happens Dolf

short of cases like zimbabwe, where they just start their monetary system over

oh do that

all US dollars are invalid

Germany it

as of now

reichdollars

but really, tax brackets are fine, but I'm not working if you start taxing me at 40-60%

Don’t know much about economics but I don’t think the inflation I’m talking about is the same

That’s a dumb statement on my part lmao

Are you gonna have to be kicked from the tribe?

just don’t know how to explain it more

not inflation due to supply but due to tax being so high it’s not profitable

the price of individual goods does drop frequently

It’s probably related

was more so in reference to medical and such not just clothes food and such

this is CPI inflation

it's what you're trying to say Dolf

Ok

it's only ever been negative, during the depression

cause a depression

anytime it's below 0%, consumer goods are decreasing in price

we have the solution

“Eat the rich” hee hee so quirky

I dislike rich people as much as I dislike all other people

fuck them

I still can’t believe them building a guillotine outside of bezos home was back in July

Or June

pretty soon you'll be the rich person Pika

I thought it was August

above average == rich

at this point

I am already rich amount university students

a persons weight is how fat they are
