BJD3 Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 So far on all the sites everyones been agreeing with him. I'm trying to find someone to debate with on it, haha.. I mean, is there a downside to taxes being raised on the mega rich? They have to decide whether or not they want to buy a house or a Maybach. Seriously though. The main thing they say is some riff of how they worked for their money, why should they be penalized for making more money that most people. And while that POV holds some water, while I don't think they should be taxed so heavily they make the same thing I do, they should be paying taxes at a higher percentage.

TahoeJoe Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 The only argument is trickle down economics and that is no longer a valid model in this country. So may have a tough time finding someone who is against this. Not to mention Warren Buffett is one of the best business men in the history of the country...Shit I would vote for him, dude smells like money.

zx10intn Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 What most people fail to realize is taxing the rich doesn't effect them like you would think, they just pass it down in price hikes or lower wages and makeup for it off the backs of working people Quote 1969 Chevy Chevelle 20/22" staggered Bonspeed Huntingtons wrapped in Nitto INVO's Mechman 250amp cs144 alt w/AVBM Kinetik 1800 main battery/Kinetik 2400 in the trunk Pioneer AVH-3200dvd Headunit (2) sets of Hybrid Audio Technologies Imagine components up front (2) DD 3512's d4 coils Sundown sax100.4 component amp Sundown saz-3000d subwoofer amp 5ft^3 box tuned to 34hz MY BUILD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackedout Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 there is a reason why rich people are rich. they are smart Paris Hilton? Rich people arent always smart. But they can manipulate the hell out of the system. I think that if my income gets taxed about 20%, theirs should be too. I don't think they pay the ratio of taxes that we do.

tonedeaf Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 as do i. but there are reports out there taht says he didnt pay any taxes last year lol There are reports that Obama doesnt have a birth certificate and that Clinton had sexual relations with whats her name. Doesnt mean its true. But in all seriousness, idk whats right or wrong with those accusations/reports/documents, all I know is that the rich taxes should be increased. But theres a TON of things that need and will never get done through congress as long as the democrats and the republicans are at eachothers throats instead of worrying about the issues at hand.
