That's not reading at all, why don't you just explain it?

Basically: if you make a certain amount of money (a lot) you will pay proportionately less than someone paying 7% of their taxable money. I guess?

I'm going to try to put this in the dumbest possible terms

Jeff Bezos's $8.5 billion dollars in income is taxed at 20% because it's capital gains, and the highest possible tax rate for capital gains is 20%. If someone works for a living their income is ordinary income. If they're single (not married) and make over $43k in taxable income, any amount of ordinary income over that $43k is taxed at a minimum of 22%. 22% is a higher percentage than 20%.

I can try to dumb it down just a little bit further. Rich people who make money just from having money have that money taxed at a lower percentage than middle class people who work to earn an income.

I am struggling to see how someone making $43k/year has to pay a higher rate on their long term capital gains than Jeff Bezos

can you read

because it really seems like you can't

AngelsNAirwav3s posted...

Bezos is still paying the 20% federal long term capital gains tax, which starts at like $480k/year

...yes, which is why I said the capital gains tax rate is capped at 20%

But we can't afford universal healthcare, folks. Sorry, the money's just not there.

don't stop there

Capital gains tax rate is capped at 20%, so if you are a single taxpayer any taxable income you make above roughly $43k I believe (going off memory, did not look this up) is taxed at a higher rate than Bezos's 8.5 BILLION DOLLARS.

They need to learn that change isnt instant and perfect is the enemy of good. If they cant get it through their heads that having a fucking DICTATOR is bad for their future, then they are a lost cause.

These voters are people that have seen no meaningful change from democrats in their lifetime

We've had a decade for that and how did that go

We ended up with Hillary, Biden, and older Biden

I didn't say not to vote for Biden you fucking illiterates.

Yes

Buttsage is absolute filth and a competent website would ban him on sight

Every single president has funded israel since its fucking existence. Why is this the election when people are suddenly unable to vote for a president funding Israel?

Biden is maintaining the (unfortunate) statue quo that every president has before him. Have you never voted for president before?

Probably because this is the most public the IDF bombing tens of thousands of civilians has ever been? Like fuck dude try to use your brain just a little

Tony what do you think of trans people, now I really do want to know

The Republican historians rated him... 41st out of 45. In short, everyone with even the barest clue of what they're talking about rank him among the worst all time.

And then there's you, trying to handwave the fact that he incited a literal terrorist attack against the country.

Of course he handwaves it, how else would he be able to lick trump's boots

What are your thoughts on trans people? If they're not bad there should be no problem just saying it.

Why is an Elon Musk simp losing their mind in this thread?

Just get everyone to call him a sexual assaulter (which is true; he admitted to it on his now banned LivingLegend account) and eventually nobody on CE will be able to see his posts

Buttsage blocked me because I reminded people of the time on a prior account he posted a story about fucking sexually assaulting a woman. Just so you guys know the type of filth he is.

Yeah I've seem this counter-argument all the time. It's the same with people when they complain; they don't think they're complaining, they think they're criticizing.

Having no self-awareness is such a toxic trait.

Exactly. Criticism = pointing out negative things I agree with. Complaining = pointing out negative things I don't agree with.

Nah the end of the first 4 hours plus a ton of filler, was pretty dogshit

Man another one of these stupid posts that basically blame DEMOCRATS for all your problems.

The Democrats didn't take away your third option. Vote for a third option if you want to. Stop blaming Democrats for not giving you a pony while the farmhouse is on fire.

Voting third party in the US is just giving all power to the fascist party.

the last two seasons were so bad. 6 not quite as much, but 7 was so closely connected to 6 that it retroactively made it so much worse

People should vote against Biden in the primary, dude sucks

Oh no not 12 whole dollars

If the government doesn't say, "Real ID" or anything to mandate it, then:

"Are you 18+?"

*Yes button* *No button*

It meets the minimum requirements, suck it, Big Brother

They're not trying so hard to pass this law just to make sites add a fucking drop-down box.

I didn't see anything on the EFF link about mandating the use of government IDs on websites though?
