Shoot The Breeze 3.0

This, but also the focus should be on how the course is taught. It has to be delivered to each student in a way that one doesn't feel obligated to hate another because of their skin color history. This will only happen when teachers wages are increased dramatically. Instead our politicians send a bill through Congress to create climate change police all around the world funded by the U.S. taxpayer.

The states pay the teachers, not the federal government, blame the states that pay their teachers shit

There's a multitude of issues. People aren't going to vote on a tax increase to raise teacher's wages when inflation is high and corrupt politicians are telling parents their children belong to the state. Plus, There's already too much taxation without any representation.

Tax the rich

And then what? The money will never go where it was originally intended to go. It always ends up in pockets of dirty political figures or offshore bank accounts and personal investments. There's a management problem on top of everything else.

Tell that to Democrats trying to raise the SALT tax deduction ?

Tax ONLY the rich.

We know how the “tax the rich” movement gave us:
1. AOC selling $50 sweaters.
2. That $600 IRS-bank proposal. Raised to $10,000 (unsure where it’s at).
3. California proposal to increase taxes for free healthcare, or whatever, got turned down because the people didn’t want it.
4. Fed govt wanting to get involved with crypto, regulating it and taxing it.
5. Dems love taxing everything under “climate” reasons yet their states look like this:

So you post a picture of a private business that got given the right to have their own private police force which has been a failure?

Private businesses work great.

Billionaires shouldn’t have a lower effective tax rate then working class. Period.

I don’t think you understand they put tons of money in their businesses. warehouses don’t pay for themselves, employee taxes don’t pay for themselves.

Problem with the Tax The Rich crowd is that they are so jealous, envious, and focused on what others have that they forget about themselves. What I mean by that is that you fail to realize that if you are making anything you are richer than the poorest poor in the USA. You are the rich to them.
If you make more than $30K/year you are richer than 95% of the people of the world.

In other words, you are The Rich to many & the government wont afraid to treat you as such and the government has tried (see my examples) which leads to the middle class getting screwed big time. *

Wealth inequality in the United States is out of control. Here we visualize the issue in a unique way.

When we say "tax the rich" we aren't saying "Tax Joe the Plumber" and we aren't saying "Tax Uglytaco the Level 12 CPC." We're saying "Tax Jeff Fucking Bezos."

Cool you don’t pay taxes on business expenses. You pay taxes on profits and your personal income. So higher taxes can lead to even more investment as it can be spent instead of hoarded. In either example the money goes back into the economy instead of sitting in some 17th mega mansion or yacht that you can only move by deconstructing bridges

This implies wealth is a zero sum game. Like the bottom 60% are fighting over a limited amount of money.

“Alleged inflation”? Surely you jest.

I agree the prices have gone up. But it’s from companies just raising them and making more money. Companies shouldn’t be making record profits due to inflation. They should be charging more to cover the increased price of their suppliers.

Yea, it’s caused simply by these evil companies just raising their prices
