@Maksim False.

the american economy doesn't depend on the top bracket

Landlords should not be considered as protected by law

@Koninos lmao okay if he’s wrong elaborate why

Unless we overhaul the system the rich will continue to get richer even with taxes

I’ll wait

Besides most rich people hide their money

Landlords should receive the same treatment as porn directors and ceos

@AutisticSebastopolGoose That's what I'm doing, genius.

The wall

The Panama papers didn’t get the spotlight they deserve

You're not blind, you can see me typing.

@Oliver This is why we crack down hard, instead of just letting them get away with it

Woke

Make tax evasion and abusing tax loopholes punishable by death

I don’t believe in punishing people for using tax loopholes unless they’re just straight up lying. Fix the loopholes instead

You would have your economy crippled when you implement such a high tax on the wealthy, especially in a country like the USA. It should depend on how much your economy depends on the top bracket. This "gradual" integration won't work - it'll have more or less, the same effects with the sudden implementation.

Oliver got a point

@Koninos There is no evidence that taxing the top bracket more weakens the economy

Infact all historical evidence points to the opposite in the industrialized world

I'm not saying that.

Koninos is a landlord

I'm saying that implementing a 90% tax on them, would cripple the economy.

Especially nowadays.

Also there is no evidence because no one was stupid enough to implement such tax yet.

Is there any evidence for that?

No.

Um?

There is

But theoretically speaking, I'm proving you wrong.

1940-50's we had 90% on top bracket

My father is a landlord but unlike parasites he has an actual job and the people who rent just pay for the utilities and mortgage, him being a landlord isn’t fucking job because it never was one to begin with

@Oliver what does he work with

And as I said, that's a bad comparison, because in the 40's the economy didn't depend on the top bracket.

What do you mean what does he work with?

What does he work with

What's his job

He’s an educator

@Koninos You can't deny that during the 1950's it was the most prosperous time in U.S history - do you know why?
