Sorry I have people I work with who are in an absolute tizzy about how AOC is gonna take all their money and it loving infuriates me. it's like "Bruh, you don't make a billion dollars, hell between you and your wife you don't even clear 500k. Your taxes might go up a little bit, but not excessively so, you will still be able to afford all the nice things. The people who are going to get the screws put to them are the folks who own multiple islands and jet set around the world without having to give a poo poo about cash flow anymore."

People between 100-500k are seeing tax bills owed in most cases because of the new republican tax plan. In some cases they’re being hit with under-withholding penalties even though they had the same w4 exemptions as before.

Warren's wealth tax proposal should get more attention too, it's even more significant in a lot of ways for a class of people who can basically define their own taxable income. Or, as AOC puts it https://twitter.com/AOC/status/1089604364065533952

Like FDR I would prefer a 100% top marginal rate, but also like him I am willing to compromise. How about 92?

Willful ignorance so they can fingers in their ears "NAH NAH NAH I CANT HEAR YOU YOURE WRONG" accounts for a lot of it i think. If you dont hear what someone is saying you dont have to honestly evaluate if what they said has merit. Changing your mind could be uncomfortable better to avoid it.

Not understanding marginal tax rates is just the first of of many mental barriers that you have to overcome to get through to them. Then you have to deal with "but what if I become a billionaire?" and "eventually they'll tax everything I have too" and "higher taxes on billionaires means less jobs" and then who knows what else.

“What if I make a billion?!” Ok, let’s say you earn $2,500 per hour. Amazing! And you work 40 hours/week. And you get paid for 52 weeks a year with paid time off. Now let’s say tour net taxes are 0% and you have absolutely zero living expenses. Why, you’ll be a billionaire in just over 192 years!!!

Russian Troll Farm News! Mueller has given them some of the non-sensitive discovery documents, as expected. The Russians responded by modifying/forging said documents and putting them online through skeezy methods, plus throwing in a whole lot of other bullshit to make it look like Mueller didn't have anything.

One of the comments brought up that time that Jacob Wohl tried to frame Mueller for sexual assault. Anything ever come of that? If love to watch that little poo poo sit in prison and/or be bankrupted.
