@Archon that is because you can't have a party of the young and a party that feeds on the young in the same group?

I will never understand people who are willing to vote in people who actually call for the government to take MORE money from you

are you rich?

not really

but if I become rich I don't want to be penalized

the idea is that the ultra wealthy do not need most of their money to still be rich comparatively

that is very basic

the point is that the ultra wealthy have an exorbitant about of wealth

to where it is actually destabalizing

ergo if they are taxed higher they are still rich comparatively and everyone benefits

those reasons are what they will use to gain sympathy for higher taxes

@Misomania true man its a paradox

however, how you spend that money is a different subject

I mostly care that the rich usually use a lot of loop jokes

because once the ultra rich can't be blamed, then they will find another reason to raise taxes on someone

how so

Though I’m certain that the amount of money a billionaire has is probably less fluid then we normally believe

there is always a scapegoat

@EndangeredProdigy they dont stop with the Romanoves eh?

why the hell are random channels added to my twitch following list?

that's like when I get auto-follows for facebook people

no one has been logging into my account and nothing is linked to it

finding random shit on my feed

only to learn I've been automatically subbed to some fucker

i'm just kinda shocked that right leaning people tend to be mostly poor or hard-working americans, but they defend the ultra wealthy who tend to get their money through exploitation and manipulation

at the same time, the rich on the left secretly want to spend less on taxes

I think it's more that they just hate government more

but they defend the ultra rich

Everyone wants to be rich and thinks they will be at somepoint

^

this comes down to the lottery fallacy

maybe if I spend a dollar a day on the lottery I'll be super rich

Doesnt matter if its a fallacy or not, people believe it

hey, we should all spend money at the lottery

it's not that hard to make a lot of money

actually that is the point of it being a fallacy

holy fuck

you just have to be willing to put in the work

did you just say

I think of it as an extreme version of the american dream

it is not hard to become a rich person
