TRUMP and GOP reward the richest and steal from everyone else
Poorest among us will be impoverished by 13.6% whereas the super-richest will get almost all the beenfits from the GOP- Project 2025 Trump-VOUGHT budget.
Reich and Lofthouse, from minute 5:50 in their analysis of this week's developments in tyranny and fascism.
Let this graph sink in.
The poorest in our country are being robbed in order to give MASSIVE tax breaks to the super and ultra-richest in the country. That means MUSK, BEZOS, Zuckerberg, and all the cronies swarm around the White House.
Robert Reich calls this "reverse robin-hood" . That is too polite.
The rich have become richer and richer and paid less and less since of their fair share of taxes since about 1950. When one has plenty it is the just, fair, normal, and moral thing to pay more taxes.
In 2018, the richest among us had the lowest tax rate of any group of taxpayers!!!!!!
Taxing the rich used to be normal, and most other countires do it as a matter of course. In the USA rich donors and corporations have captured congress and been able to stop paying their fair share. This started with Reagan. Images below let us study the current situation.
The Richest pay less as a percentage than some with much less wealth, and they surely can afford to pay taxes at the 1965 tax rates.
MUSK became super rich because of federal money. Doubt it? Google it and check out this blog.
