Ya it’s called common sense. See our government expenses are paid with taxes so if billionaires pay less taxes the rest of us pay more so we have less money for a roof, eggs and milk.
If we tax billionaires for their fair share then we pay less taxes and have more money.
I guess common sense isn’t so common.
😂 oh boy. Child i said eggs, milk, and roofs.
Taxes are literally the last thing thats the problem there. We’re at historic lows. Lowering them for the low/middle class isnt going to get them food/housing.
You crow about common sense and then completely misfire.
Dont get me wrong I’m all for taxing billionaires hard. But thats not going to put more money in your pocket for the items above.
You’ll need to do a lot more than tax billionaires harder to fix those issues.
And im here for those changes in addition to taking billionaires more.
The benefits don’t end there. If you really need me to keep explaining economics to you then just go take a course. If we taxed billionaires their fair share we could afford public services like child care or health care. Income inequality is the root of many of our problems in America. Including politics because now the wealthy have enough to literally buy votes as we saw with Elon Musk.
I dont need the economics courses but you might. The three basic things i listed are the three things people put before any other priorities. Please revisit your economy studies if you didnt recognize this. Your points about taxing billionaires dont matter until those three things are met for the voting population. And atm people are struggling with food (inflation), roofs (inflation, housing crisis), and fucking safety (muslims friends and family are literally being murdered by us).
So kindly before you think about lecturing people on economic policy of taxing billionaires make sure you understand wtf people are dealing with.
Because news flash: im all about taxing them and probably understand the 2nd/3rd order impacts of doing so better than you. But i also understand that such a policy wouldnt have shifted voters struggling with the first three issues.
