When I stated accurately the rich today pay a greater percentage of all the income taxes paid. You responded:
Only one tiny problem there dumbfuck. The "quote" I provided didn't say they paid 42% of all income taxes.
No. They. Don't. And yes I discussed that.... Back Then they paid 42% per your fucking quote. And now they pay 34%.
It said:
How could it be that the tax code of the 1950s had a top marginal tax rate of 91 percent, but resulted in an effective tax rate of only 42 percent on the wealthiest taxpayers? In fact, the situation is even stranger. The 42.0 percent tax rate on the top 1 percent takes into account all taxes levied by federal, state, and local governments, including: income, payroll, corporate, excise, property, and estate taxes.
So are you a liar or a dumbfuck or both Hondo? -

What the fuck do you think this means? From your quote. Which is the same comparable to the 34% paid in 2017. Fuck man, embarrassing.

Hondo goes with the gibberish defense.
The rich pay a greater percentage of all income taxes today then they did back in the 1950s when the top marginal rate was over 70%. The only liar here is you Hondo. -
Hondo can't comprehend the difference between an income tax and a overall tax rate.

Have a business for a year Montana , then register in Washington. Somehow you thought that info was pertinent to share regarding how you cheat Washington out of taxes. You even forget your own lies. There are so many. -
Wrong. It’s against the law to buy anything in Oregon tax free and bring it into the state of Washington for your use and not remit the use tax to Washington. You can pay it quarterly. Again, I’m not surprised you are a tax cheat. Typical of people like you.HHusky said:

You’re right. The sales tax is not insignificant. That’s why the stare requires you to pay it. -
So Hondo wants people to pay their “fair share” so they can pay for his too. It is all starting to make a little more sense.

Its a legal dodge by another hypocrite like yourself who thinks others need to pay more taxes while you dodge yours -
You do realize we are discussing whether wealthy need to pay more federal income tax, right? And your link is him saving State taxes. Right? Which does what? It actually increases his federal tax liability. He is paying his fair share Race.RaceBannon said:

MIKEY“Wrong. It’s against the law to buy anything in Oregon tax free and bring it into the state of Washington for your use and not remit the use tax to Washington. You can pay it quarterly. Again, I’m not surprised you are a tax cheat. Typical of people like you.
You’re right. The sales tax is not insignificant. That’s why the stare requires you to pay it.”
You’re assuming facts not in evidence. Who says I brought any of it into Washington and/or that it was for my use in Washington?My point is that I’ve made numerous purchases in Oregon simply because making those purchases in Washington would have involved hundreds in sales tax.
When my middle child went to school in California it was a non issue and we mostly made our purchases in Seattle. But when my oldest was headed to college in Montreal, we made a point of buying in New Hampshire. And with my youngest going to school in Oregon, well, I think you can figure out where we shopped. -

There’s a reason my wife and I deliberately make some purchases in Oregon. Why wouldn’t people making large purchases choose to make them outside of the US?YellowSnow said:
Yep. The income tax has been such a needlessly complex mess full of all manner of distortions to the maket. We’d be better off reducing them dramatically and going mostly VAT.SFGbob said:
And yet even with that top rate of 70% the evil rich paid a smaller percentage of the income tax than they do today. As has been discussed ad nauseam, while the top rate may have been 70% few if any actually paid that rate.YellowSnow said:
Kind of ironic isn’t it that during the era that MAGA guys have the most nostalgia for - i.e., 1950s to 60s - the top rate never dropped below 70GrundleStiltzkin said:
You’re the honest thiefHHusky said:
I think the bigger problem with the 70% marginal tax rate is that it wouldn't raise that much money. I've already said I'd stop fetishizing investment income. Much simpler than taxing you rich guys 70% on your declared income exceeding $10 million.RaceBannon said:HHusky said:

Why would anyone look to the government to make their life better?allpurpleallgold said:
Start voting for people that will make people’s lives better. I always see this shit about “the government”. The government is made up of people. Elect better people and you’ll get better results.Fenderbender123 said:I love how creative politicians have to be when they're trying to take more money from people. If they would actually spend tax dollars on shit we wanted, or on shit that's actually necessary to maintain a healthy, civilized society, there wouldn't even be a need for taxes. People would just donate. Instead, they spend our money in the shittiest, most inefficient way possible, so they have to get creative and try to trick people into supporting tax increases by making us think "Yeah, fuck wealthy people. Those fuckers don't need all that wealth...it's just, like, sitting there totally unused, man. Those greedy, arrogant, unskilled, lazy, fat, racist good-for-nothing rich people only got rich by making me poor anyway. So let's tax the fuck out of them. Sure, that won't improve my standard of living because the government sure as fuck isn't going to make my life any better with that money. But that's not important. What's important is that I can sit here and feel good about all those wealthy people getting fucked over. Fuck yeah!"
The republicans deserve a lot of credit for electing Trump. He’s not the guy but they took their shot to get away from scumbag politicians. More than I can say for a shit load of democrats that won’t even take a shot.
Asking for a friend.
Providing for a national defense is right there in the Constitution. Paying for grandma's hip replacement, I can't find that shit in the Constitution.
Feel free to quote from the grandam's hip replacement clause.
How could it be that the tax code of the 1950s had a top marginal tax rate of 91 percent, but resulted in an effective tax rate of only 42 percent on the wealthiest taxpayers? In fact, the situation is even stranger. The 42.0 percent tax rate on the top 1 percent takes into account all taxes levied by federal, state, and local governments, including: income, payroll, corporate, excise, property, and estate taxes. When we look at income taxes specifically, the top 1 percent of taxpayers paid an average effective rate of only 16.9 percent in income taxes during the 1950s.[4]

Liar. And tax evader. You bought in Oregon and didn’t pay the tax you are required to pay by law to in Washington. You admitted it and are now backtracking like a bitch. You didn’t even know the the law before today. Hypocrite.
