Our tax system is seriously flawed when you and I pay more in income taxes -- TD Elvis 06/09/2021 11:54AM

That’s not what the article says. Regardless, you seem ok with that? -- Ramfucious 06/10/2021 01:12AM

That’s exactly what the article said, they made up their -- DurwardRam 06/10/2021 09:15AM

It didn’t say anywhere that they paid a 30% ish rate on income. -- Ramfucious 06/10/2021 10:40AM

Should they pay on unrealized gains? ** -- DurwardRam 06/10/2021 10:51AM

No. But they should pay on ANY new income. Paying less than 1% is not that. -- Ramfucious 06/10/2021 3:33PM

And that’s not what happened. -- DurwardRam 06/10/2021 7:26PM

By chance, did you have Don Samuelson for tax? -- Rams Hot 06/09/2021 4:08PM

Must be a unviersal comment made as I did -- SappBVP 06/09/2021 6:05PM

Good point. Engineered tax dodging techniques. How's that? Like I said... -- TD Elvis 06/09/2021 3:09PM

The general idea is they make little income. -- DurwardRam 06/09/2021 3:19PM

If you have no income, how to you buy mansions, cars, private airplanes, -- TD Elvis 06/09/2021 4:02PM

“Thier” - why can’t you guys get it right? -- DurwardRam 06/09/2021 6:01PM

This time it was laziness on my part. I make that typo all the time -- 60s Rammie 06/10/2021 2:10PM

There must be some income, but -- DurwardRam 06/09/2021 4:12PM

I don’t understand how some people think the paltry % billionaires pay -- Ramfucious 06/09/2021 1:21PM

The time has come for a straight consumption tax and end the income tax -- ParkerRamsFan 06/09/2021 12:20PM

Heck no. The less you make the greater percentage of your income is used -- ram-o-litous 06/09/2021 2:17PM

How about basic goods: food, gas, etc are taxed at a very low %? ** -- Ramfucious 06/09/2021 2:59PM

Still don't like it. Lower income earners still have to buy cars. -- ram-o-litous 06/09/2021 3:34PM

Like I said below, it'll never be a straight consumption tax. -- RamAlum98 06/09/2021 2:20PM

I'm good with a consumption tax, but the devil's always in the details. -- RamAlum98 06/09/2021 2:02PM

I could get on board with that, in conjunction w some sort of flat tax. -- Ramfucious 06/09/2021 1:24PM

Is this different from a VAT? ** -- TD Elvis 06/09/2021 1:10PM
