Trump's tax rate is higher because he is a multi-billionaire, compared to Sanders whose net worth is less than a million. Hell, Trump should be paying double the amount he is, as should Romney.

sure kid. what do you pay????

...

What does that have to do with anything?

Nothing, it's just a personal attack I use when I know I'm being an idiot and want to deflect the attention elsewhere.

>Trump should be paying double the amount he is
why?

...

"should" huh? I guess if you can decide what they should be paying, then I can decide what you should be paying? you should be paying 100%. How'd you like that? Some arbitrary know nothing asshat deciding how much money "should" be taken from you ...should should should bullshit

because "should" that's why.

he's referring to the progressive tax rate, though I have no idea what his tax rate should be after taking everything into account.

>1990s
>$916 million loss

35m is just a drop in the bucket, that makes him smart, remember?

That doesn't even make any sense though. A billionaire paying 5% is paying a WAY higher gross than you paying 90%.

In fact, the "1%" (not the ACTUAL 1% which is a shadowy globalist cult that runs the international banking system), but the 1% that participates in the economy and owns and operates businesses, pay more than 50% of the gross tax revenue of the country. 1% of the population pays more than 50% of the taxes.

Where does your logic come in claiming that the rich should be paying double, when they're already paying more than anyone else both in % and in gross revenue. "What is your fair share of someone else's hard work" user?

Xer eyes look so fucking stoned

Three different people in three different businesses over three different years. Your point is?

I hadn't realized that Bernie Sanders is a multi-billionaire. You fucking retard.

The tax rates were very similar in all of those years.

Income taxes aren't determined by the business that you work in m8.

Your point is?

his point is trumptards are stupid and love spreading facts they don't understand to "prove" trump is not just a rich, senile, old man. i keep seeing the "look the debt went up with obama" charts and tons of other memes they don't undertsand too.

ITT people not knowing how percentages work

Yes, they are. Real estate has far different tax treatments than finance, which is also different from Sanders. Then we can get into carried interest, deferred payouts, conversions and other tools of high finance.

Literally every day I see actual Trump supporters posting satirical memes made to mock the intelligence of Trump supporters, and they don't even realize it.

Lol fuck you, stay poor you little bitch.

>the poor = 0%
>the middleclass = 25%
>the ritch = 75%
no problem here

Haha it's veritably admitting that you have no counter argument. Come on, you could at least try. It'll be funny!

>can't spell "rich"
>mfw four letter words are hard to spell

i'm no tax lawyer, but if Exxon-Mobil can pay $0 in taxes and actually get money back from the Government in subsidies, then isn't President Cheeto doing something wrong?
I mean it is obvious he is the worst manager ever and couldn't manage his way out of a paper bag on his own, but doesn't he have Lawyers that do this shit for him?

Because feelings

>only argument is spelling errors
nice. think this argument is over since you're obviously already out of arguments

assuming that it is even true ( it was mailed anonymously )

..one good take away.. based on his 2005 income tax, we can see that he would have saved 100 Million with the new laws he is pushing through.

what kind of dumb shit thinks a 1%er would betray their class for the fucking poor.

...

yeah you are too busy giving your money to people richer than you.

fucking cuckservatives

but go on, blame the poor.

"Give"

Motherfucker they just take that shit.

And righties do the same shit with farm subsidies and defense spending and social security, so fuck off.

irrelevant, make an argument.

Easy there Bernie

Guaranteed this is written/shared by some soft middleclass douche who benefits a million times more from the society built with taxes than any of the people he demonizes.

nah, I'm with her faggot. nice, centrist candidate. all I wanted was

>fix obamacare
>start working on prison reform
>start pushing for more privacy rights, or at least resist obvious corporate bullshit
>keep bank regulations in place
>don't fuck anything up

economy improving, world relatively stable... and instead we get a fucking populist con-man baby boomer. I hope he dies in office from stress. And I hope before he dies he manages to fuck over every one of those fucking coal and steel cocksuckers who voted for him. I hope he breaks up their unions, and puts them to work at $3 an hour.

>Samefagging this hard

Why are liberals, sjws, millenials, and bernie fags so obsessed with rich people making money? Why not go out and make your own fortune? Im a poor fag but thats what im doing now and im happy for all the other successful people out there (except corrupt politicians that use their position to get money ie clinton family bush family or cheney family)

No they dont, you dolt. Seriously, with federal income at $1.5 trillion, and trump paying 35 mil, seriously?

>belittles working class
>wonders why someone would vote Trump
>implying shillary wasn't also a populist

yeah great comparison fagtron.

>belittles working class
Just the ones dumb enough to vote against their own class, against their own interests. I want them to fucking pay. I guess they need a reminder that conservatives always fuck them over.

This. If you mke money in the free market it's because you have customers something they wanted more than their money.

If you made money off government, it's because you abused power and directed tax dollars to yourself.

I love when progressives tell me what my "best interests" are. It only cements the opinion that they are elitists that think they have a right to tell everyone else what to do.

>imwithher
Pretty sure you're the fagtron buddy.
Also since when do democrats help out the middle class? All they do is widen the gap between rich and poor. Look at Chicago and Detroit, both have always voted dems have a small middle class population

one reason: because the rich/poor gap has been rapidly increasing. It is destabilizing economically and politically.

you think liberals can't make money? that has nothing to do with it. It isn't "give me", its.. "quit stealing". I'm ecstatic for people who make money. I'm not some shit who like.. wants everyone else to fail. And I understand the frustration of being taxed heavily. But if you want a stable society, you need to keep things more balanced than they are now.

You want a successful nation, you provide them with education and healthcare.

Americans are so trapped in this "anyone can be a millionaire they just need to work hard" thing. It is a fucking lie.

way to pick fucking ghetto cities. republicans have done so much more to shift the tax burden to the middle class. Every massive tax cut, all that "trickle down" economics shit - more centralized wealth.

I love it when dumb hicks from fly over land tell me what kind of sex I can have, or what kind of god I need to worship. Oh wait even better - when they insist we should teach religion in the classroom, or ignore global warming because exxon/mobile told them to.

I should have known they would all vote for the guy who was on WWF or whatever you call your fake wrestling bullshit these days.

Wtf is this us vs them shit? I thought this was America. All for one and none for all?

>implying flyover states even matter in elections

DRUMPF BTFO!!!!!111!!1!

>all for one and none for all
Uhh yeah, that's pretty much always been the "American way."

Sanders should get a fucking job, that old senile bastard.

you seen the senate and house lately?

Life will ALWAYS be Us vs Them, no matter what your hippie professors told you. You either dominate or you accept your place as a little bitch. Most wealthy people work intelligently to maintain and grow their wealth. Spic Nigger McRedneckpoorfag may "work hard", but if he doesn't "work smart", he's just wasting his time, and no one owes him jack shit. And no one owes little bastard kids anything except their mouth-breathing parents.

Yes. Upward mobility for middle to lower classes are nearly impossible. It is more than likely you will stay in whatever class you were born into. This is India, right?

>Most wealthy people inherited their wealth without doing a single fucking thing to earn it.
ftfy

But not really, thought. Social security and other safety net programs?

>citation needed

honestly dont care if that person in the pic looks stupid you are just promoting them

you are too stupid to read aren't you.

rich people "work smart" because they are taught how to. you know what really wealthy people do? they don't work at all. think about that ok? they.don't.work. they just collect checks and go to rich ass social functions. and they are getting massive tax breaks because they call the shots.

They own the banks and companies that you maybe get a few thousand shares of if you are lucky. Those companies squeeze the middle and lower classes. Making sure the laws support it, because they pay the politicians.

Even when you have disruptive technology or changes that let people become millionaires / billionaires... look at silicon valley. you think all those Standford and Harvard kids would be there if it weren't for daddy's money in the first place?

don't get the india comment. joke about caste system? can't tell if agreeing with me :)

>lol

I wonder who leaked that? Certainly not Trump or his posse themselves.

Hmm i wonder if that's why Trump got elected

Lie cheat steal. Gotcha. Id hate to be your business partner. What is so hard about treating your workers well? A little less money for you?

pretty sure that dude is still in college. no way he owns his own company.

>what is graduated income tax
Do you want to know why he paid more than Sanders and Romney? He made more. The more you make, the more you get taxed. You pay a higher percentage. That's how the US tax system works. They literally teach this in high school economics.

Agreeing with your sentiment. Spot on; caste system.

Really? Donald J trump? Small loan of a million dollars?

Pink eye... from all the unshaved, free blooding, butch lezzies she eats out.

>They literally teach this in high school economics.

You aren't really implying that OP finished High School to work in a coal mine?

you should talk less shit, since you don't know what you are talking about. go google yourself some cap gains tax.

cool... i think we are more mobile than some countries, but yeah. the great that rich poor gap, the more problems we are going to see. vertical mobility is the american dream.

...

will fap to later

By the way he sounds, probably high school.

Try harder.

>seriously try oh so much harder

...

yeah but you know. figured benefit of doubt.

Ah, Trump supporters - forever trying to turn shit into shinola

It's not that 2 pages from a decade old tax return was released and turned no smoking gun;
It's that the Chief Cheeto didn't want his returns released at all and some got out anyway

We'll get the rest of his returns whether he likes it or not

ITT people who don't understand marginal taxation and effective tax rates.

Also, the Alternative Minimum Tax. This is the biggest reason he didn't want to show his returns. 4% of his $39,000,000 taxes were federal taxes. 96% was attributed to the AMT.

Guess who has championed destroying the AMT for a long time? DJT

Have another

this is the best part. that needs to be communicated.

polygon

found the millennial lol

last time I checked once you hit +150.000 a year (at least here in my country) you are in the same income tax group or however it is called

so what's your point user?

>you should talk less shit, since you don't know what you are talking about
It's basic economics. If you actually paid taxes you'd understand how they work.

If you make more, then you automatically pay more even if you pay the same % dumbass. 15% of 50k is $7500. 15% of 5 million is $750,000. Why does the % need to be higher if the same % automatically would make you pay more in taxes?

Lel commies will never learn that you can't stump the Trump. The next eight years is going to be full of salty faggots getting BTFO at every turn.

>I guess they need a reminder that conservatives always fuck them over.
We have this situation in the UK, and they are fucking them over HARD, but nationalism, brexit and anti immigration is all they care about as they are genuinely convinced it's the root cause of all their woes and Britain's problem. A very useful tool to the conservatives here, but they are in danger of losing control to the first madman demagogue to come along with the means to win.
It doesn't help that the leader of the opposition here is an ineffective, unpopular shitcunt.

That bitch could quit her job tomorrow and she'd still stay in public memory for decades to come. What a legend.

Why don't you ask the IRS. Not my fault that your stupid ass can't comprehend the American tax system.

actually only about 25% of all millionaires inherited their wealth. can source if you want, don't have it handy

...

>That bitch could quit her job tomorrow
...and do PORN... please ... do PORN!

>Who is Elizabeth & Fred Trump?
>Who is Samuel Walton?
>Who is John D. Rockefeller?
>Who is E.I. du Pont?
>Who is Fred Koch?
>Who is Prescott Bush Sr.?
>Who is Lang Hancock?
Just to name a few. That's not even counting the "self-made" megarich who didn't traditionally inherit their fortunes, but instead "made" their fortunes through their parents political contacts. (William Gates Sr)

bush used gay marriage in the US to ensure he stayed president and continued iraq war. Every fucking time, they use emotional issues - and it feels like the right uses them more effectively. I don't know why.

but religion / fear / hatred are fucking powerful, and hard to counter. I think it is also worse because in the US - we are so focused on consumerism... that the fear button is already jammed down to hard - keeping people buying constantly.

Throw in the fragmented media, and i just don't know wtf to think, much less do about anything.

"American dream". We're behind Canada and most of Western Europe in economic mobility. Sad.

>what is progressive taxation

What are you, five?

Oh and they vote consistently to remove/reduce their own security net for the unemployed and ill. This is because they have been strongly given the impression that it is a far bigger burden on the budget of the UK than it is in reality, with constant propoganda to dehumanise and slander those in need by constantly showing the minority that abuse the system.

The middle and working classes genuinely believe they are taxed for more than they get from the state. This is a lie, no one pays for themselves here already, and they are bit by bit voting to stop the rich bailing them out. Idiotic, but inevitable given the monstrous and popular right wing propaganda here in the uk

how many 100 millionaires. being a millionaire doesn't mean shit anymore. a decent doctor can be one.

sorry didn't reply to what you wrote. it sounds like thinks are fuxxord over there, and brexit fucking mystified me and seemed stupid as shit, and then we did something arguably worse.

I think people get fed up enough eventually to either vote the other way, or actually be motivated to get up and vote at all.
The real danger is electing anyone who will make it impossible to remove them, and the damage done in the interim.
