Jeff Bezos is so much more boring, lame and devoid of personality than a Bond Villain though it physically hurts my brain to try to relate the two in my head.
Because the double of 0 it’s still 0, tax those bastards
Double 0. In front of a bond-villain-style rocket.
Only one way to find out - whaddya say we give it a try, Jeff?
2 x 0 = 0
So yeah. Of course it won’t. All those loopholes and tax shelters they’ve paid to have written into the tax code need to be closed. They need to be taxed out of existence (as in billionaires shouldn’t exist)
Nothing times two is nothing.
They should double his taxes and then double them again and again and again and again. Billionaires should not exist.
Yes doubling it won’t help it needs to be 33% flat for him and Amazon which is probably more than 5 times
How about triple? Still no? 4x, 5x, 100x. Let’s find out when it starts helping people.
Tax billionaires on the assets they control, till they’re millionaires.
Hmmm, maybe make into a gameshow and call it “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire 2”
Which is why we need to quintuple it. And keep doubling it from there until morale has improved globally.
So what you’re saying is that we should be taking more, a LOT more? We should keep taking until it does help somebody?
I can get down with that.
I’d venture that setting his effective rate to the same as everybody else’s would make the amount a lot more than double
Double it AND enforce it too. Problem solved.
Nobody wants to double thentaxes on the uber wealthy. We want way way more than double. Personally, I like 100% on “wealth”/“net worth” over 10 million dollars.
After you hit $1 billion, just a total reset to 0. They’re all pretty confident they can get there again easily, so shouldn’t really be a problem. Enjoy your little spotlight in Forbes.
2 * 0 = 0
Of course, that’s why taxes for multi millionaires and upwards should be percentages based on income, civil contribution, participation and national financial participation (ie. Where is the money made v where is it spent or sequestered.)
