what do you mean then

2018-10-17 06:36:15 UTC  

I can't find the exact image

2018-10-17 06:36:23 UTC  

you just represented two extremes in a span of 10 seconds

2018-10-17 06:36:32 UTC  

If you think that's bad

2018-10-17 06:36:39 UTC  

the image I'm referring to had a guy wearing that shirt

2018-10-17 06:36:47 UTC  

and a sign saying that same thing I followed up with

2018-10-17 06:36:50 UTC  

at the same time.

2018-10-17 06:37:03 UTC  

that would have helped

2018-10-17 06:37:08 UTC  

to see that photo instead

2018-10-17 06:37:08 UTC  

lol

2018-10-17 06:37:13 UTC  

I know, I can't find it.

2018-10-17 06:37:52 UTC  

anyway I joined here because I like Tim who is a leftist that is reasonable with the right...

2018-10-17 06:38:04 UTC  

Welcome.

2018-10-17 06:38:10 UTC  

Out of curiosity, what state are you from?

2018-10-17 06:38:39 UTC  

I thought I was far left 10 years ago, then I realized what happened after Obama and suddenly see my old party as batshit

2018-10-17 06:38:51 UTC  

I'm in Washington State, PNW

2018-10-17 06:39:23 UTC  

but, I still think the Right is idiotic when it comes to taxes and the vastly wealthy

2018-10-17 06:39:42 UTC  

however, the reason I think Trump will win a second term is because the current left is unable to deal with their neurosis about SJWism

2018-10-17 06:39:57 UTC  

I laughed when he got elected and I'll laugh again

2018-10-17 06:40:08 UTC  

I think the average person doesn't comprehend what Taxes actually do.

2018-10-17 06:40:10 UTC  

Imagine the shock ;D

2018-10-17 06:40:37 UTC  

Basically I just don't care about the vastly rich.

2018-10-17 06:40:46 UTC  

That's a main part that makes me Leftist

2018-10-17 06:40:59 UTC  

I think it's foolish to concern yourself with the vastly rich, as you put it.

2018-10-17 06:41:03 UTC  

I think they could lose a big portion of their money and be fine.

2018-10-17 06:41:13 UTC  

I disagree, of course

2018-10-17 06:41:21 UTC  

However

2018-10-17 06:41:24 UTC  

Imagine this, someone who makes a million dollars a year

2018-10-17 06:41:32 UTC  

I do think it's a big problem how most people think that money be spent

2018-10-17 06:41:35 UTC  

Rye - the problem is that there are lots of government spending programs that do nothing for us.

2018-10-17 06:41:38 UTC  

they get taxed this year at a rate of 27%

2018-10-17 06:41:52 UTC  

that's $270,000 of their dollars going to taxes.

2018-10-17 06:42:00 UTC  

Let's imagine you cut their taxes by 3%.

2018-10-17 06:42:24 UTC  

They're now paying $240,000. That's 30,000 less.

2018-10-17 06:43:00 UTC  

Depending on the field

2018-10-17 06:43:03 UTC  

that 3%

2018-10-17 06:43:10 UTC  

is the difference between an entire job being created.

2018-10-17 06:43:36 UTC  

The margins are actually SUPER THIN when it comes to taxes.

2018-10-17 06:43:39 UTC  

yep, that pays my entire salary plus 10K for the rich person.

2018-10-17 06:43:55 UTC  

Frankly this is how I see my political views: I'm libertarian socially (for people's rights); and I'm frankly authoritarian when it comes to business and capitalism because of the absurd imbalance of wealth

2018-10-17 06:44:02 UTC  

That million dollars a year?
