Idk man maybe you should be comfortable paying more taxes if it gets you something worth it. I’d probably be hit by the taxes to get free effective public transit, that’s cool, I’d rather pay my car transit bills into a pool that gets us the metro or subway but free
Well he’s a Michigan libertarian so I think he only wants the US to fund the military, and of course anything that personally and directly impacts him but not if it only impacts some unlocky fool in his immediate neighborhood… because he’s a libertarian
All the libertarians I know are collecting disability paychecks from the military for supposed injuries they didn’t document until after they left… I just don’t talk about politics with them at all, the level of hypocrisy is too much
Party realizes that super rich people have enough resouces to avoid any tax they can come up with as a single country
Party still wants to live up to the promises from 2, so they try to tax large corporations
Same problem as 4. Fun fact by the way: The nice left colonialism-hating palistine-supporting irish are the ones most responsible for big tech not paying any taxes for doing business in europe. (Double irish with a dutch sandwich)
Party turns to the “richest” people that cannot afford tax evasion.
I pay close to the maximum tax rate although making far less than 100k per year without any noteworthy savings
Of course it doesn’t have to go that way, I just want to point out there are reasons to be skeptical besides being a “Fuckin idiot”. Politics can turn good ideas into bad policies
Are you talking about a real party in a real country or you just made this all up because it sounds edgy in your head? Fact that you included a rant as “fun fact” half way through your numbered list and that can’t even fucking spell Palestine makes me think you are 15 and came straight from reddit?
I was trying to point out a possible train of thought causing someone to be opposed to ideas of higher taxes for rich people. Sorry for the spelling mistake, English is not my first language. I also shouldn’t have mixed other issues into it, that did not help the discussion.
Maybe the main reason for people refusing taxes for the rich is a lack of trust to those in favour of it, because they percieve the ones favouring it as opponents. This could be at least partially due to them using insults and personal attacks as a means of discussion. Sorry if there are spelling mistakes again, my break is over and I do not have time to check each word I am unsure about.
Some dude I work with said “man, if they start taxing Bezos more, at what point are they gonna come after me?”
Maybe when you start making billions of dollars? Fuckin idiot

They’re right tho, millionaires are way more protected by government than the average person
You know what the difference is between a million and a billion? Roughly a billion.
This but actually
Apparently he hasn’t noticed the rate he is already being taxed at. Guy sounds like a genius.

That dude you work with is beyond clueless.

We can all agree that people refusing taxes for the rich is a lack of trust to those in favour of it. I mean that’s what the meme is about right?
But let’s not bring into this a people that are being decimated at the rate of more that 7000 children and women/month by a genocidal neighbour yeah?
Yes, sorry, as I said, that was a mistake
I get what you’re saying but he really is a dumbass. The loopholes drive me loco man. You’re absolutely right about Ireland too. Fuck loopholes
