Instead of bashing others you should realize you do the exact same thing: you don't pay tax on appreciation on your house.
Rich people pay the bulk of our taxes. It is people who have no assets but tap into our medicaid and welfare systems that burden our economy. Instead of being jealous of our biggest contributors perhaps you should recognize that the rich are the ones who literally pay for virtually everything.
Thanks QQ, but we have to do our best to maintain some measure of connection to these pitiful libs whose minds are closed tighter than a mason jar.
I think that they want to kill all the rich people. Like I want to kill all the leaf blowers. They don't know that they cannot get along without the rich people. I am not trying to be funny here.
My comment goes further, to wonder, in the farthest reaches of their minds, why do they dwell on rich people ? Should they not be thanking the rich people for all that they do, none the least of which is pay so much money to the government?

What are you talking about?
That tax money is used to pay for the abortions of girls who have changed their minds about having a baby.
Why can it not be used to reimburse the money I lost when I bought stock in Studebaker Auto Makers, inc?
Why don't libs answer questions?

THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT! I DO PAY UNREALIZED GAINS ON MY PROPERTY TAXES! MY PROPERTY TAXES GO UP EVERY YEAR.

The city reassesses the value of my property every year and charges me more money in property taxes. If Musk can skate by on his unrealized gains tax, the unrealized gains on my property are being taxed every single year.

Rich people pay taxes, but its the earne ...[text shortened]... s who are burdened with the bulk of it. The earners. Instead of taxing the earners, tax the wealthy.
A silly unfounded post, Wildgrass. Thought you were a little more educated on taxes. Hey, your tax goes up NOT for anything except to cover the costs of running the town business. If they must pay more for asphalt on that new road in front of your momma's house, they will hit you up for the cost, in taxes.
Whew.

Note how amazing it is that libs always leave posts 'unclosed'.....you did not mention the town budget. For your penance, I want you to re-write your post making a point of that???

The top earning 1% taxpayers pay FIFTY percent of the income that is used to pay for your abortions, military, and everything, everything, in between.

Funny how the rich do SO much for us, but what about your god king Trump who has paid no taxes for DECADES?

So, please consider all this when you march to get money from the Billionaires...., it will impact us.


I've been reading this nonsense since the 1980's, when old Ronnie Reagan promised tax cuts for the rich would "trickle down" to the rest of us (we're still waiting for that to happen) Tax rates for the 1% were much higher decades ago, as well as fewer loopholes, and this ...[text shortened]... h after month (even under that dirty old socialist Joe Biden)

Please stop being so gullible. 🙄
It's just more "The sky is falling" fear.

It's the Republican trademark.

You saw how Tesla stock price dropped when he sold $5B of his own stock. Such actions result in a huge impact on retail stockholders and 401k Plans. Worse, public pension plans control $31Trillion in assets worldwide.

I thought I would highlight this great post. Can someone give me a thumb up?
A progressive tax system you halfwit that’s the whole point of this debate 🙄
Money taken from the corps and super rich minority and used to improve the lives and release the potential of the vast majority which in turn produce much more wealth than a bunch of hoarding misers could ever do.

Kev wants to take money from people who have it and by god, spread it around. Redistribute it. Karl Marx was into that.
Kevin, would you elaborate, for our entertainment? Unintended consequence, et al? Sweeping effects? Suzianne’s pension losing value?
