That’s a hard pass for me. I’d rather opt out of social security. It’s a ponzi scam. If the government had put that into a private account, I’d have millions of dollars in there.

    Hell no. USA #1. We should have a 50% tax rate or higher. Especially for companies that only make money by manipulating money.

      So you’d be fine being taxed at 50%? I wouldn’t. In most other countries the citizens pay a higher burden than the corporations. So you’d be fine with 50% of your wages gone?

        Hold your goalposts there partner, corporations might pretend to be people, but last I checked, people still aren’t corporations.

        You can lose this argument gracefully, or you can lose it like a clown, your choice.

          You’re the clown who isn’t being clear.

          If we tax corporations to death, they’ll just move to a lower tax area.

          It’s what they did with manufacturing. Taxes need to be fair. Otherwise companies won’t play.
