You have yet to prove that the tax rate is 60% in some places. I will believe it when I see it. (Also I was referring to the envy part)

I have never complained that rich people have money, and I rarely complain about income gaps. I don't care that people are rich. I care when rich people get systemic advantages to basic human rights over others, and I care about this countries economy and well being.

There's no places in the country that the tax rates are that high. NONe.

Come man. Don't play stupid. 39.6%+13.3%+local taxes. You can do simple math.

That’s the top marginal rate. No one pays effective rates that high.

NO ONE?!?!? I know at least one person that does. So it is not "no one". Try again.

Right, so the upper limit is 40%. Exactly what I have been saying.

At 40% someone who makes $100mil pays $40mil. How much more do you want that person to pay?

No, because you're ignoring state income taxes.

We have been debating the federal income tax.

really? are you comparing rape and child beating to kneeling for the anthem? That's pretty stupid.

I am saying its stupid for millionaires to complain about anything.

And you and Strikeout moan about a potential tax increase for millionaires? Hypocrite much?

NO!! Name one time I moaned about that? ONE TIME!!! Do it. You are lying yet again. That is one thing you are good at. Idiot.

Boo-hoo, we can't raise taxes on the poor, poor rich. Boo-hoo. Do you want me to quote the post?

None more. I want everyone in that top class to pay close to 40%. Btw, boo-hoo poor rich people.

if you make 100 million and are paying 40 million in taxes you need a new CPA.

If anyone thinks that dino doesn't call the Leaders of this Country names and/or otherwise defame them in his posts and his thread Titles, they are either blind or stupid.
What does his Thread title right now say? Is that not defaming the VPOTUS?
That isn't hypocritical for someone who complains about and red lines other WIS posters who call each other stupid and idiot?
He has a right to his opinion, and WIS has decided to give him free reign in his thread, but let's not pretend he's not a hypocritical extremist.
If you will look back, I have admitted Trump has handled some things badly and done some silly things. You'll never find someone like dino admitting he's done anything good. The daily witch-hunt posts of unproven BS are nothing short of slandering our Leaders. When / if any of those are ever found to be true, then they should be held accountable. Isn't it "Innocent until PROVEN Guilty" in the US?

Nope, we have been the debating the amount that high income earners pay to the government.

Top federal rate for people making over $400,000 is 39.6%. CA top rate is 13.3%. That puts you at 52.9%. Now tack on local taxes. That puts people making $500M+ right at about 60%.

I'm not sure why I had to prove this. It's really easy to look up.

you deduct your state tax paid from your federal return.

You can only deduct up to $10,000 of this.

Jealously again. The only way you know how to be like them is to take what they have. Sad, very sad. Plus, I don't see what you can't comprehend about the fact that they pay more than that. Just because it's not all federal tax doesn't mean that the government isn't taking it. It's not hard. You're smarter that. Show it.

I know CA is a liberal state that ******* and moans way too much. I know that much.

Also, if the lefties can stereotype the south, I have every right to stereotype the west. You guys do the same **** and know nothing about this part of the country. Stop being a hypocrite.

Unlike you, I've spend oodles of time in the South. Racism is rampant, especially in the panhandle.

You let that guy get under your skin too much. He is, as you said, an extremist. Just ignore the man. It is sad that he sucks in sensible people like Taint and Wylie and distorts their sense of logic, but it is what it is.
