freeformz 🏳️🌈@DamienMarieAtHope it’s like taxing the rich and using the money to address public needs works!?!?!?!?!?
Francis@freeformz @DamienMarieAtHope That can’t be right. The only way to help people is to let the rich keep more money so they can spend it. 8^/
Clay Rosenthal@seraphimages @freeformz @DamienMarieAtHope it’ll work any day now. We’ve only been trying for what?
Oh wait just checked my notes we’ve been trying that for 60 years. But yeah any day now that money will trickle down
@clayrosenthal @freeformz @DamienMarieAtHope Exactly, and besides, imagine how you will feel when you become a millionaire and have to fall on your own sword with these taxes you want millionaires to pay.
@seraphimages @clayrosenthal @DamienMarieAtHope
Fine. I’ll feel fine paying a fair share. If I’m making millions that means I have too much for myself. Note: I’d like to have to experience this “problem”.
@freeformz @clayrosenthal @DamienMarieAtHope I hope one day we all can have that “difficulty” to have to deal with.

Who was it that suggested that the tax rate over one million dollars should be 100%?
Cause I don't disagree.... And yeah it's a problem I'd love to have
