Every dollar **AFTER** 10 million

But it's still hard earned money.

So the first 10 million is taxed normall6y

well she should know that it's ineffective

the 1% don't get paid such high salaries

The rich get taxed too much, they earned it fair and square.

jeff bezos, 137 billion, makes 80k a year

Can you provide a source for that?

<:pepeOrly:531514367917686844> Only 80k, everything else is a business expense <:pepeOrly:531514367917686844>

shh don't tell the sec that

Uh huh. Yeah, I think that we both know Jeff Bezos is realistically making MUCH more than that man.

oh yeah he makes thousands a minute

but none of that is getting taxed

Sadly

So much for making money fair and square and contributing to society.

I don't think people who hard-earn their money need to contribute to anything.

@TehZig

Those business dinners and flights 😛 1.6mil

A regular American? You mean a Hollywood billionaire?

honestly I would love to be a CEO

just putting everything on the company card

Lol

They can’t fire u

Is that what you call `Macaulay Culkin` @chad ? <:think_right:415551072120078347>

well they can sadly 😭

Only if it’s a public company

If they contribute nothing, how will society function? Taxes are needed to make society function.

If I ever was a ceo I’d never go public

well his money comes from his ownership of amazon right about 16%

but the only time the stock is taxed is if it is sold and been held for a year

but since bezos only makes 80k a year, he's not in the highest bracket, so his stocks are taxed at 5% when they vest

`They can’t fire u` That's what his wife said <:lul:509551045245009920>

How does he make money?

by selling stock

Every time he wants to buy something he has to sell stock?

nah

he sells off at a very specific time announced months before hand

Oh

else he could get cracked down on insider trading or god knows what

Btw Luz
