The super wealthy should pay more taxes, is this really controversial opinion?

No, but there's a problem. At first the income tax was supposed to target only the "super wealthy." 100 years later here were are, do you feel super wealthy yet?

Taxation is literally theft, they don't help me in anyway.
>muh roads
They don't even fix them anymore nowadays.

The super wealthy are so from creating thousands of jobs and working hard, coupled with a bit of luck. What is the point of working hard to create jobs and lives for the less intelligent if you're just going to have all your money taken from you? Increased government intervention in a free market lowers everybodies standard of living

Not really. It's pretty much a consensus among economists, but no one is able to pass any law that way

Do you mean the dollar amount, or the percentage of their income?

>the super wealthy should use the government they created and control with their hand-picked politicians, to use the mass wealth extraction and redistribution mechanism they created, to give away more of the money they printed into their own pocket

This is some Ben Shapiro-tier logic user

Uh huh, and you think the super wealthy are holding cash, huh? Lmao. They’re not. They’re holding the same shit that you hold—real estate, stocks, etc. they just hold more of it. So when liberals bring up tax the rich, what they really want to do is tax unrealized gains which will absolutely fuck the middle class over.

the national debt is like 1.2x the entire gdp of America, taxation is not the answer to the problem. What they collect now doesn't even get spent on supporting the nation.

Americans are so fucking dumb
You retards don't understand anything at all. Basically automatons without free will

yep
cope

$600 is not, "The super wealthy!"

unproductive assets like gigantic mansions and yachts should be taxed.
>b-but muh slippery slope!
we already have property taxes. it's not a new concept

it is because the money wont be used to lower middle class taxes or increase middle class benefits. the super wealthy will avoid some of the tax thru inefficient capital reallocation and the gooberment will just spend more on dem programs or a new wunderwaffen

they do pay more, retarded fagit

Just Kys retard

It is definitely trickling down just not wealth, more like piss and diarrhea

>'the wealthy should pay more taxes'
>the wealthy pay themselves more taxes
>goyim are confused
>they hurt themselves in their confusion
>'the wealthy should pay more taxes'
I'm sure it will work eventually.

this too. ((they)) want the middle class' money. too many yeomen or kulaks are hard to control.

wow great argument

God, you guys are so fucking retarded
No wonder you're all so easy to fall for obvious scams

Finance and economics are pseudoscientific make believe garbage, capitalism is inherently unstable, exploitative and unsustainable with a built in expiration date. All finance assets like money,crypto,debt,bonds etc are purely parasitic in nature and serve no purpose nor have any inherent value. Ever escalating recessions, poverty, disease, pollution,wealth inequality, slavery, conflict and wars are fundamental and necessary functions of it, not glitches, and every single financier or crypto dudebro is a literal parasite.

exactly
disallow governments to spend tax money on weapons and military simple as

Why can’t we just murder the wealthy that got rich who don’t deserve it? I’m all for the guy that went from a potato farmer or apple picker to a billionaire. But that family riding that ancestors coat tails should be rounded up and shot. They don’t deserve any of it and only cause more decadence and frivolous political power that decays a civilization.

Wealth should be given to the govt upon that persons death and nicely distributed to the people in the form of social program. Think of it as philanthropy by way of govt.

Before people start fucking crying on here yes a small trust fund will be insured to the family to cover expenses such as high education or food but shit like luxury stuff that’s a no. You buy that with money that hard earned.

>should be
why? what's the point
moreover, and what taxshills don't seem able to grasp, is that those tax dollars end up laundered back into the pockets of the super wealthy. the money gets SPENT, it baffles me that the people calling for higher and higher taxes don't think about where it ends up. the super wealthy pay themselves with your taxes, intermediated through some vastly overpriced government contract that they themselves lobbied to create
