2019-08-21 04:27:04 UTC

2019-08-21 04:27:06 UTC

EXACTLY

2019-08-21 04:27:34 UTC  

SO TAX ME

2019-08-21 04:27:45 UTC  

You tard,

2019-08-21 04:28:11 UTC  

The inheritance people get allows them to pay off debts, buy a car, etc

2019-08-21 04:28:27 UTC  

To penalize that inheritance with a tax directly affects the least well off

2019-08-21 04:28:36 UTC  

you know we dont have to tax small inheritances either

2019-08-21 04:28:46 UTC  

we can only tax larger ones if we really wanted to

2019-08-21 04:28:50 UTC  

One of the reasons they stick to this mentality is the same reason they so disproportionately gamble - buying lottery tickets and such. They have the mentality that they are going to get rich somehow

2019-08-21 04:29:06 UTC  

So they don't want their imaginary future riches taxed

2019-08-21 04:29:09 UTC  

it's really disgusting actually

2019-08-21 04:29:17 UTC  

yea its kinda amusing actually

2019-08-21 04:29:19 UTC  

Democrats buy more lottery tickets on average

2019-08-21 04:29:28 UTC  

like theyre arguing on behalf of people's interests *which dont align with theirs*

2019-08-21 04:30:15 UTC  

The people who buy the most lottery tickets and gamble the most are also 18-29 year olds

2019-08-21 04:30:23 UTC  

People who dont know a whole lot about economics

2019-08-21 04:30:39 UTC  

Gee I wonder which party the majority of them vote for 18-29 year olds

2019-08-21 04:30:57 UTC  

The one that promises them the economic rainbow and burys future generations with debt

2019-08-21 04:31:31 UTC  

$21 trillion and counting, both parties are to blame, but one party is promising the free shit

2019-08-21 04:36:39 UTC  

The people that gamble the most are the people who go into finance actually

2019-08-21 04:36:48 UTC  

so, they do know something about economics 😉

2019-08-21 04:38:30 UTC  

And you're talking to someone who has rabbit holed every school of economics, so its not a valid retort here. In fact, i would turn that back onto you and claim the reason you dont support redistributive policies is because *you havent widened the scope of your economic knowledge to realise that neoclassical/austrian economics is based on garbage premises and false logic*

2019-08-21 04:39:38 UTC  

>but one party is promising the free shit

two parties are -> the fact republicans wont tax inheritance means theyre promising you will get your free shit

2019-08-21 04:39:49 UTC  

I suppose ill just ask my financial planner if they bought any scratch and sniff tickets then,

2019-08-21 04:39:54 UTC  

republicans love giving free shit to corporations too

2019-08-21 04:39:58 UTC  

so its a false dichotomy

2019-08-21 04:40:07 UTC  

gambling isnt just lotto tickets mate

2019-08-21 04:40:13 UTC  

its casino games

2019-08-21 04:40:24 UTC  

putting money on derivatives at 20x+ leverage

2019-08-21 04:41:13 UTC  

theres no "formula" for stock prices *which is actually accurate to any real degree*, so when you put money into stocks, *youre gambling on your intuition/study on that company and/or the economy*

2019-08-21 04:41:33 UTC  

theres a reason hedge funds underperform most of the time

2019-08-21 04:41:51 UTC  

"People assume risk when they consult with financial planners at a bank, it's just like a casino game",

2019-08-21 04:41:56 UTC  

Thats beside the point though

2019-08-21 04:42:02 UTC  

its THE Point

2019-08-21 04:42:21 UTC  

people in the financial industry are the biggest of the gamblers

2019-08-21 04:42:46 UTC  

^Very debatable

2019-08-21 04:42:47 UTC  

However
