And I see a trend here -- your posts are getting dumber.
Real losses come with individual companies too. And a lot of it is based on luck.
Yeah that's how these things are measured. What metric would you use?
It's a meaningless distinction that the returns are taxed twice. What are the actual rates? If corporate profits are taxed at 1% and capital...
The claim was 'taxes', not just 'income taxes'. And even if 'income taxes' had been specified, 42% is less than the 50% that was claimed. And...
My cutoff would be well above having any effect on the average person saving for the future. It would only affect the extremely wealthy, who as...
All taxes do this. Income tax rewards people who don't work over those who do. Besides, with a wealth tax we're not talking about taxing the...
You said the top 1% pay the vast majority of taxes. That's a lie. Stop lying.

I'm saying you apparently don't understand that federal income taxes are but one of the taxes we pay. And even then, the top 1% don't pay 50% of...
I've found different results. The top 1% do not pay 50% of the taxes in the US.
No, meaningless as a point in this debate.
That's not even close to being true.
Meaningless. This is the case with most taxes we pay. The dollars you spend on sales taxes have also already been taxed.
Wonder if Orban will tell Trump he's the leader of Hungary, not Turkey.
