Typical bs math unrelated to the monstrously huge number of services and benefits the mega-rich get every second by living in the U.S., from the population of the U.S., and from the government.
What are the government services and benefits that the mega-rich get that no one else living in the U.S. gets?
It's YOUR assertion. You tell us :What are the government services and benefits that the mega-rich get that no one else living in the U.S. gets?
Putting aside semantics about what benefits and services are, I'm not sure why this is so hard for you to understand. Since you think so inwardly on such issues: The burger flipper that uses the road to get to his job, doesn't compare to the small business owner who relies on the roads for his workers to get to work, to move his product/service, to get his customer to his product/service. Or the doctor relies on the roads for his patients to get to his practice or the hospital is greater than the sum of each individual. Everything is intertwined, trickle down is a joke, and this country needs more demand to get the corporations of their ass and start spending the trillions in cash they are sitting on because they sure as hell aren't investing in R&D.
6. a natural person who has individual net worth, or joint net worth with the person’s spouse, that
exceeds $1 million at the time of the purchase, excluding the value of the primary residence of
such person;
7. a natural person with income exceeding $200,000 in each of the two most recent years or joint income with a spouse exceeding $300,000 for those years and a reasonable expectation of the same income level in the current year
What about what people have to pay for rent, particularly in Manhattan? You do realize there is a government net benefit for one and a net fee for the other?
Some people (like IC) disregard the net fees paid by renters, thereby rationalizing that (most of) these people aren't paying their fair share of taxes.
IMO i think alot of people know it doesn't "trickle down", They just want an excuse to cut taxes for the wealthy
Do you think that you could provide at least one unbiased link?
