No argument there. I'm just saying, no one is supposed to get any socialism in a real free market.
When billionaires lose all their money from being stupid, arrogant narcissists, they get bailouts, and regular people go bankrupt because of medical bills, or they lose all their money from trying to keep up with their student debt, we're fucked for the rest of our lives.
We really need to tax all billionaires by 99% of their money above like...$10,000,000 in one year. We have to set the nominal rate that high, because of the loopholes and deductions, once that's all accounted for, the effective rate will only be 50% at most.
All these idiots in congress talk about the debt and deficit as a reason to stop the cashflow of disability benefits and social safetynet programs, but then without missing a beat they say that we need to spend even more billions on war or bailing out the scammers on wallstreet that committed so much fraud they crashed the economy in 2008.
Like I said...corporate dictatorship oligarchy
