Describing a system whereby those who gain the most from our society contribute less than the working class whose labor makes the society possible isn't quite the defense of Trump some of you seem to believe it is. Yes, our system is set up to reward corruption among the most wealthy, but only the most dissonant suckers would defend such a system.

You are ripe for exploitation.

If you dont like the system that has been made, you're free to make your own system and post your selfies there.

Hey man, how many people did you employ last year? How much employment tax did you pay? Property taxes?

So you're absolved of paying your personal income taxes if you employ someone else to pay them for you at a substantially lower rate?

In 2016, the top 50 percent of all taxpayers paid 97 percent of all individual income taxes, while the bottom 50 percent paid the remaining 3 percent.
You're impossible to discuss anything logical with so I'll just wish you luck swallowing that jagged pill.

We're not talking about other billionaires. We're talking about the orange one that doesn't pay his taxes and is currently seeking reelection.

The point is that everyone in this country with half a brain does everything in their power to pay as little taxes as legally possible. With this known fact the top 50% is still paying 97%.

If you think orangemanbad because he does the same thing as the rest of us, your TDS level is completely off the charts.
