    If there was a "system" that I could rig, why would I rig it to make poor people poorer? I'd rig it to make poor people richer so that I could get many of their parasitic asses off of the public teat thus saving me big $$$$ in tax dollars.

    “Why do rich people take more money from poor people instead of giving poor people more of their money?”

    A mystery indeed.
    Take? Unless you’re talking about government, no one is taking, except government.

    The rich freely give more than anyone. And what fucking business is it of anyone what a person does with their property?
    The rich have always taken a greater share of the value that their laborers produce. It evened out some following the New Deal but unionbusting and deregulation carried out by Reagan aand Clinton gutted the middle class. The financial crisis and tepid recovery under Obama twisted the knife.
    Seems to me that plenty of rich folks created wealth that didn't exist prior to their labor. If your beliefs were accurate why wouldn't we have a 1920s GDP today?

    Who did Bill Gates steal his money from?

    “Why wouldn’t we have a 1920s GDP today?”

    Explain how you think economic growth works? It’s a rhetorical question but still one of the dumbest you’ve ever offered.

    The tens of thousands of employees at Microsoft and Facebook receive in income a fraction of the value they create for people like Gates, Zuckerberg, and the companies’ upper management/shareholders.
    Define “their value”. And if you go to the labor theory of value fuck off and light yourself on fire.

    I don't know about "freely" but the richest 1% currently pay nearly 40% of all income taxes. If they've "rigged" the system, they sure have done a shitty job at it.
    When I said freely I meant by their own free will. Taxation isn’t giving freely, it’s taking under the threat of violence.
    Under threat of violence? El oh fucking El.

    Refuse to pay taxes and see what happens. Dumb fuck.

    So if a person gets sentenced to prison for not paying taxes, they can just ignore it, or will people who can leaglly have automatic weapons come for them?

    IRS agents don't legally carry fully automatic weapons. HTH

    I know several FBI agents. They don't carry fully automatic weapons either.

    So refuse to go to prison for tax issues and see if you’re met with violence. Or maybe it’s just a suggestion.

    When did I say “fully” in relation to the IRS? That’s your word. Idiot.

    Also, as usual, you’re an idiot. https://www.forbes.com/sites/adamandrzejewski/2017/10/20/why-are-federal-bureaucrats-buying-guns-and-ammo-158-million-spent-by-non-military-agencies/#56b93e3a64a1

    What does the FBI have to do this this conversation? Also, many FBI agents carry “fully” automatic weapons. The fact you don’t know any is irrelevant.
