Thats what I said earlier. That you have no idea what they are going to do with that money. I said they could be doing anything with it. They could be helping family and friends. Like somebody in the hospital with an illness...

It's a good thing we have millionaires to pay for healthcare for their immediate family and nobody else

I mean, many people do that already. Just because someone has extra money doesnt mean they have to spend it on others. That being said, some may actually use their money help others. Im not going to pretend like I know what extra rich person with their money. But who could blame someone for helping only their family?

Nobody, which is why most civilized countries have universal healthcare

What? How do you crush your orphans into soylant green? They won't do it themselves and, if they want out, they gotta pay to make some other kid an orphan to take their place!

And we dont. But I still dont think rich people should be forced to pay for it, nor do I think it should be their responsibility to do so...

they deserve to be taxed to death but they're just going to flee the country with their money if you do that as well as ship jobs overseas

good for you.

i doubt you will find a whole lot of people who think the healthcare system in the US isn't busted to fuck, but the idea that socializing is the best and only way to fix it is patently false.

Doesnt apply. We pay up to almost 50% in taxes for next to nothing in return. You pay much less tax for a much better deal. Some states have a higher minimum wage with lower income tax, yet they still complain.

You claim "doesn't apply" but then double-down on the relative privation.

As long as we don't tax much over 50% there isn't many places you can go really, which is why so many of the wealthy have their money here, because with loopholes etc, they were able to pay significantly less taxes in the US then most other places in the world.

The 12% increase over 400k would bring taxes up to about 52% which is a bit (very small) more than other places in the world (for amounts over 400k at least), but not really enough to uproot your life and move everything for. It just basically stops making the US a great place to make money and get interest on your money etc.

Honestly we don't REALLY need to raise taxes to 52% over 400k, we just need to close the Regan loopholes and ensure everyone is actually paying 35% or more on their income over 12k a year or so (heck raise it to 15 even). Any income you do make over that though can only be offset by direct money lost/spent from a buisiness (not re-investing money in new supplies, not investing money into anything other than 401k plans, not donations nothing, you pay the base flat tax on your net income period).

If that happened we would have WAY more tax revenue every year already, and could even lower taxes on the average citizen while still saving social security, and having excess money for other projects.

Other countries tax a very small amount on anything under 35k or so (in some cases basically nothing even), but everyone making over that gets taxed fairly close to the same amount. Something like that would be waaaay better in this country and you would probably pay less as long as you were not making more than 100k.

Problem is, if you are making more than 100k, you'll pay more, possibly alot more, and of course the people making that much have all the power in this country, so it's not gonna change.

These orphans couldn't pay to not be thrown into the machine. Naturally their tears make an excellent flavor additive!

You're so efficient now, Blight. Instead of coming out with your own usual shitty nonsense, you've outsourced it to other people AND you've managed to go even worse! It's a far more effective way for you to troll. Truly an inspiration!
