Isnt it the high earners who pay like 99% of the money the government gets from income taxes in the US? Its quite high in the UK, but I was amazing to see that in the USA the top earners pay quite literally, all the tax already
So why do they need to pay more? Tax should be upped across the board.
Most people don’t realise that if a certain group are taxed a lot more and pay a lot more tax for the government, then policy and voting will revolve around them because they become the favoured group of the government.
Everyone should be taxed equally
Edit: To be clear, when I say high earners, I do not mean billionaires, I mean 100k+ group
Parade of billionaire shills and “potential billionaires down on their luck” incoming
So many people hate the thought of taxes but completely fail to realize that without them America wouldn’t exist as it does. No roads, no internet, no postal service, no police, no fire departments, even worse medical care, no army, no navy, no air force, and a whole host of other essentials would be gone.
And yet, there is always a stream of people with an IQ equivalent to the temperature of a puddle of piss in Antarctica coming out of the woodwork screaming TAXES BAD, GOBERMENT BAD.

Why not a minimum tax of 25% on all Americans?

He couldn’t pass it in democratic controlled congress , what chance does he have in a republican controlled one ?
It looks like a calculated move to do nothing while appearing to have done something
