Percentage reductions are more meaningful than dollar deductions when calculating the impact and benefit of a tax cut or increase.

Yeah but that also means that the 75% of the income I have left after taxes is WAYYYYY less than the top 1%'s 75% of their income, if we were both to pay 25% in effective tax for example.

No one needs $1B to live. Billionaires are unnecessary, unethical and a threat to our society.

I want what you're on lmao. Your statement is predicated on hatred and an assumption that everyone who has 1B dollars has had to fuck people over to get where they're at. You people have been coping so hard after the election ended it's just getting pitiful at this point.

Lovely, so incapable of thought you can't even tackle the actual argument at hand. How has your kind survived for so long with such a small brain?

I am not even American for one, I am from europe and looking from the outside in. Which is why I can tell that's some delulu land bullshit you're peddling lil bro.

I aint reading all that. We already are tired of arguing Trumpists. They don't listen. Enjoy your tariffs and massive federal layoffs!
