Comment on Gary Stevenson: 'Tax wealth or we'll return to the feudal age'
Koarnine@pawb.social 2 weeks agoSo you are incapable of arguing the facts and so move to ad hominem?
I think properly taxing the financially obese is the answer. Obesity is harmful.

And by “properly” you actually mean unfairly.

They currently pay fuck all, they need to pay for more for it to be fair and proper.
When capitalism actually functioned, we had 70-90% tax on the ultrawealthy, now they pay a lower percentage than the middle class.
The ultra wealthy should be forced to pay back into the countries they do business in, or be forced to leave.
They are parasites.

The 1% pay more taxes than they bottom 50% combined. Probably closer to the bottom 75%
