You can increase the taxes. The hard part is making them pay it
They have no principles. They believe nothing except what is politically expedient. They will say this, do the opposite, and insist their plan worked. Don’t play along, consistency is only relevant for people acting in good faith.
Lmao it's like when the old white men become senile and slide to the right except Bannon is morally inverted.
Maybe he doesn't want to get targeted by the adjuster. I mean killing CEO and the rich is hot right now with the 99%.
First time I agree with Steve Bannon on anything, ever.
I'm so confused.
IKR? I didn't think I'd ever agree with a word dude said
He's talking about California and New York. You know, kind of like they did when Trump was president last time.
But what does President Musk think about raising taxes on the rich?
I fully can see him being the type that makes an exception for himself and totally screws over his billionaire peers.
He doesn’t look like someone that would get along with his peers.
With a cabinet made of billionaires?
Yeah ok what else you want us to smoke
And hell just froze over.
Sounds promising, except the “wealthy” he’s considering are probably in the 80k-250k bracket lol
Unless they’re targeting multimillionaires+, it’s not gonna work. The other half of this is that there needs to be an open and transparent process for keeping tracking of how taxes are spent
Edit but since it’s a bunch of kleptocrats in govt now, what to think of that? I guess rich progressives/dems/libs better make sure they’re using the same loop holes to conserve wealth that the conservatives will, otherwise it’s just playing a game rigged to kill you.
i love that shiteating grin on his face underneath this headline
Even a broken clock is correct twice a day
It won’t happen. He’s sayin this to avoid getting shot
