instead, taxes are designed to (1) retain public buy-in to the system, and (2) to separate the upper class from the upper middle class, which is always trying to claw upwards

enjoy paying your 37%

With this kind of buy in I ought to have more say.

I could get more creative with my "expenses" but it would be fraud home office stuff that wouldn't hold up in an audit

I can see why Dave Chappell liked trumps comment about paying taxes. I bet Dave Chappell lost his mind when he saw how much goes to taxes from his own income.

How mad are you that I am taxed at 37 percent.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5809499&forum_id=2)#49506464)

to be fair, joe manchin is the only reason the rate didn't go up to 39.6 percent on income over 400k which was a core promise of Joe Biden

and now that libs control all of virginia i'd also expect a little hike in your state tax rate

https://www.thomasjeffersoninst.org/legislator-proposes-raising-virginia-state-income-tax-rate-to-10-for-high-income-households/

anyway, the actual is answer is that while billionaires should pay more, there's a lot more people who make 400k+ so raising taxes on that group raises a lot of money and there's not much they can do about it.

Furthermore, since Mr 53 percent Mitt Romeny crashed and burned both parties seem to agree that poor people should pay zero or negative tax rates (unlike IN EUROPE where everyone pays their FAIR SHARE)

think about it, when people say this, they are saying that our wealthy dont need the money right now so they can defer their compensation, so we should lower their taxes.

or oppositely, our lower income americans need their compensation now, so we should take them at a higher rate than we do our wealthy.

the real tax that libs harp on is the payroll tax. cap gains isn't subject to this (why would it be?) and it stops being applied on income above like 160k or smth like that (they really want this uncapped)
