The rich already contribute the vast majority of all taxes, but I guess that's not considered a "fair share"? I'm not even rich, so like I don't care but the envy is palpable with these loons

That’s why they employ literal armies of accountants to pursue any and all opportunities and loopholes to minimize how much they pay? No, it’s not illegal, it’s just shitty.

I moved to the Netherlands a few years ago and I pay a metric fuck load in taxes, which does suck. But the benefits to society are clearly evident.

61% of Americans paid NO federal income tax last year. That seems pretty unfair. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/08/18/61pe...nter-says.html

Haha yes, and in spite of that, they *still* contribute the vast majority of all taxes. They also employ millions of people.

Are there people with exorbitant wealth? Sure, so? It's good that they exist, because again they contribute the vast majority of all taxes. Or we could be communists where the state decides how much you're allowed to have. When we're all equally poor, at least we're equal!

That's because of the pandemic you doofus. Did you even read beyond the headline?

You make it sound like they're breaking some kind of law, yes they paid no income tax because they didn't owe any. How is that unfair?

That's also just income tax, not the plethora of other taxes.

The less incentive there is for you to own assets, the easier it is for the government to control it all. Good thing they have everyones best interests in mind.
