Comment on Affluent Americans are driving US economy and likely delaying need for Fed rate cuts - KESQ
wintermute_oregon@lemm.ee 6 months agoThey don’t get the concept it’s not greedy to want to keep some of my own money for myself.
I’d take liberals more seriously if they’d be willing to increase their taxes but their solution is always taking someone else’s money

@BobaFuttbucker @wintermute_oregon Greed is about selfishness, not desire

Haha dude it’s a selfish desire. You understand like half of what the words you use mean.

No, this is just how you feel because you’re in the top 5% and don’t want to do your part.
Please find a single comment of mine that states I want people to be taxed based on political affiliation. Otherwise you’re just making shit up now. These accusations do nothing to further the conversation or be respectful. Isn’t that a rule in this community?

I do my part. It’s time others do their part. We already pay more of our income and the bulk of all taxes.
It’s time for you to sacrifice like we do.

Who is “we”?
You do realize the lower earners in this country pay taxes too, yeah?
Omg how are the poor ever going to live without yacht money!!! Oh wait, we already do……you just don’t want to get used to it.

Then you didn’t look at the chart I provided you. We can’t have a conversation until you educate yourself on the topic. About 1/2 of Americans pay nothing in taxes. Zero
