@zahlanzi said"Who decides what profits are obscene? "
nobody gives a fuk about your imaginary friends with their imaginary business that make under a million dollars. They wouldn't be touched by a wealth tax. They would actually be helped because they won't have to provide their 2 or 3 employers with things like healthcare
"It is what we are here for, to dig deep for answers."
No it's not. it's purely to mock you simpletons ...[text shortened]... while to say, including sh76 who, though it's not saying much, is 10 times more intelligent than you
we the majority
"If they are obscene, what would be the proper action to resolve the problem.?"
more taxation. worker safety regulations. irs audits to see what taxes are being dodged. make it illegal to donate more than a set amount of money to politicians. harsher punishments for fraud. break up monopolies or anything too big to fail.
Your dumb brain asked that question as if it was the most difficult thing in the world. As if nobody ever thought of ways to stop rich people stealing too much"

Zanhlanzi wrote this above as a response to my analogy of two people in the same businesses, one makes a lot more than the other. Marx people think that this needs to be 'correeeeeccted' in some way. I simply ask him how, and he gets so angry. He wrote this that nobody gives a fuk aboout imaginary friend?!!?!? An analogy to set up a question? He did an analogy one time, and by golly, I recognized it as one. Did he Zaloony not know it was an analogy? Oh, I know, he could not answer the question, so wrote crap.

I love...."Stop rich people from stealing too much". Is Zahalanzi 14 yrs old? Who, when making such a statement, refers to the wealthy as rich people.
Geez. You fellers are dropping like flies

everything i said has been done already in capitalistic countries, including your own.
You calling everything you don't like marxist is boring us at this point but if anyone new stumbles into this cesspool we call the debate forum they will just have an easy reason to dismiss you as a moron and an ignorant. I guess for that reason it is useful

The market does, Zahlanzi, the market. Geez all mighty.
And hey, as a 150% total all-the-way capitalist, I regard you as Marxist. So are Marauder and Shav. Not meaning to be combative, it is simply all that I can see. Can you tell me with a straight face that Marauder does not reference Marx theory in almost every post about economics,, society ,and everything else?
":Everything I said has been done in Capitalist countries". Uhhh, the majority decides how much profit is obscene? Hey, Wajoma, you take this one, I am going to spend some obscenely-acquired money at the golf course.
Query: If Zahlanzi and Marauder were in charge (the majority), and I made $500 obscenely by buying low and selling high in a 10-minute period, would they feel justified to step in to my life????
We have really got some live ones here. Note that Marauder has not liked the way things have transpired over the last 240 years. Neither did Marx.
Those dam successful job-creating people!!!!

To get out of this spot, Zhalanzi will likely say that 'majority and market are the same thing'. That would be because libs do not use the word market, they are more comfortable with the word 'majority'.....as was Marx. Brrrrrrr

you keep answering my new posts yet you still are stuck on that question, you need a smack?
"And hey, as a 150% total all-the-way capitalist, I regard you as Marxist."
And i regard you as a moron. Yet i have actual proof (the sum of your posts here) and you have none. If you were to go with everything i said to a marxist he would laugh in your face at the barely socialist agenda.
"If Zahlanzi and Marauder were in charge (the majority), and I made $500 obscenely by buying low and selling high in a 10-minute period,"
You keep ignoring that i have been saying over and over that those kinds of profits are not an issue. It's hilarious how stupid you are for using that argument and how stupid you and fox business think the rest of the people are that you keep using it.
We mentioned time and time again how we want to tax millions and billions, you spew moronic anecdotes with 500$. Why don't you create your analogies with 5 million as the figure? or 5 billion? Afraid you come out sounding like a cretin arguing that a guy making 5 billion should be left alone? Of course you do. Going after someone making 500$ almost sounds like you're robbing a middle class guy coming home from a hard day work but 5 billion?
"Those dam successful job-creating people!!!!"
Billionaires only create jobs if it suits them. If they don't need the production they sure as hell won't create jobs just because the taxes are low. In fact, a marginal tax on anything above 3 millions might incentivize them to create some jobs instead of have it taxed by the IRS.

@averagejoe1 saidwtf are you talking about you senile bastard? what spot? and why would i say majority and market are the same thing, as response to what?

it seems the idiots are evolving into uber-idiots. i can't even figure out what to make fun of anymore.

@zahlanzi saidOK, I obviously used a simple 500 so that the lesser among us would be able to grasp what I was trying to say, as we don’t daily deal in billions with our ruminations. So, would you please insert 5 billion where I put 500. So,if I know that there is oil under a farmers ground, and buy his farm for $50,000, and sell it a week later for $5 billion to an oil company, please tell us what you think about that. I will be on my yacht with that 5 billion awaiting your Comments.

I made $5 billion in one day by signing as purchaser, and then as seller an hour later. That is all I did, except have to drive to the lawyers office to do it.

@AverageJoe1
What spot, you ask? (I answer all questions.)
It is that you and Marauder have clearly stated that you do not think that a man should make so much money when someone else is not making so much money. I think you use the word ‘obscene’ for me to make the $5 billion. Note that itis none of your business, no matter who you are or where you sit as to what I do. The main underlying theme of all this is that these things are none of your business.
So, the spot that you are in is that you have said, I am obscene with my profits, and therefore you have to tell me that it is not right for me to make $5 billion in one day by signing two papers.

The real issue is ( issues are) that he filed a false tax return, tax evasion, failure to file and failure to pay, contempt of congress,.....in short, three felonies and six misdemeanors.
That is what we are enraged about. Do you want him to get away, through corruption with violating the laws of the USA? She? Do she??
The money is just the vehicle that exposed all of this.
Funny you say all this ...'so much money from Burisma!!" haha, the other $49M was from many countries.
She, could you venture a guess as to why they dont simply tell us what they did for the money? It would end all this, save atty fees, etc.
That is what I, Shav, Wajoma, Marauder and, certainly, Zahjlanzi, would do.
Then, they will prove innocence and take all their legally acquired money and buy things. I have no problem with their getting rich as hell, I work at it everyday. But you gotta be legal. YOU seem to think that Hunter has done nothing wrong?? 150 SARs??? 20 shell accounts? Whatinthehell?

Please open a thread on that one, but beware the wrath of Zhalanzi ( or is it Shav, I get them mixed up).
Taylor Swift paid the shoeshine boy for the actors $100,000 in a bonus last week. That does not sound very fair to me.!!!!
