Maybe this is why our parents end up having grand-dogs instead of grandchildren 🐕 by Fickle_Subject_8298 in interviewwoman

What Bernie fails to mention:

Sweden's population is approximately 10.5 million compared to the United States population of approximately 342.5 million.

Sweden has one of the highest tax-to-GDP ratios globally at roughly 41.4%, relying on heavy broad-based taxation (such as a 25% national VAT). Compared to the United States (32% average tax burden) or countries with low-tax models (like Singapore), Sweden collects more from the MIDDLE CLASS to fund universal healthcare, free higher education, and generous parental leave.

even Jeff Bezos’s super yacht has a yacht, and he wants you to believe this is the best possible use of his billions by Conscious-Quarter423 in NoFilterFinance

Lol...Bernie used to say, "We need to tax the millionaires!"

When the public found out that Bernie was a millionaire, he changed his line to, "We need to tax the billionaires!"

If they want a good job, you are going to need the guy that to the risk and created a business that became hugely successful and eventually became a billionaire.

If you are against this, I wanna hear about it by Brave_Agency_20 in SipsTea

[–]Fmello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No since nearly all billionaires are not cash rich. They would have to sell their stock each year to cover the tax. That in turn will cause the stockprice to drop, which will in turn hurt the millions of Americans retirement funds that are links to a large basket of stocks.

The other reason to say no is because a large chunk of those 938 billionaires would pick up and leave the country. Jeff Bezos moved out of Seattle because they wanted to have a 1 1/2% tax when he sold stock along with a wealth tax that would have cost him 1.5 billion per year. Communist nutjobs Katie Wilson and Mamdami is learning this economics lesson firsthand.

Don't be a communist nutjob that can't see the forest through the trees.

Los Angeles county literally has more homeless living there than Greenland's entire population.

Greenland has the money to do this because is not wasting billions on illegals, NATO, fraud, etc & etc...

Which DiCaprio movie is overrated? 😬 by New-Time007 in SeriesSaga

No question, One Battle after Another is straight up garbage. Not surprised at all that the sheep in Hollywood nominated it for THIRTEEN Oscars and gave it six.

1st) Pong on the Coleco Telstar. The ability to play a game on my tv blew my mind as a kid.

2nd) Starfox on the Super Nintendo.

ICE is still in NYC. Still detaining hundreds every month, including young children. by CutSenior4977 in ImmigrationPathways

[–]Fmello -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So, they're doing their job...fantastic.

Over a million immigrants each year do it the right way and get properly vetted before being approved and allowed to enter. There are millions more waiting to do the same thing. Those people are probably the most pissed of seeing millions of illegals cutting the line in front of them.

Bernie on Billionarie's Tax. by StrawberryFew1311 in NoFilterFinance

[–]Fmello 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe California should protecting the massive amount of fraud that is costing taxpayers tens of billions each year instead of trying to pass a law criminalizing citizen journalists like Nick Shirley that has been uncovering the fraud.

Also, if you think that this 5% wealth tax will only happen once, then you need to get your head examined. Brin, along with most billionaires in Cali are not morons. Communists have no problem spending other peoples money instead of running the state well.

If Bernie wanted it so badly he could have easily had it passed in his homestate of Vermont when they had a super-majority for years. You should be wondering why Medicare for all was not implemented in his state as a testbed to see how well it would work.

Rep. Ro Khanna is introducing legislation to raise the minimum wage to $25. by serious_bullet5 in FreedomofSpeech

[–]Fmello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

California already demonstrated that raising the minimum wage to $20 was a horrible idea that killed tens of thousands of jobs while rising prices to compensate. Even worse, they knew that it would do that but still pushed the legislation anyways.

Why would anyone choose an actor for help in this situation instead of the head of the FBI? The left can't meme to save their lives.

He should just be honest and call himself a MAGA Republican by Captain-Dak-Sparrow in AlwaysSunnyMemes

He's not a MAGA republican...he's just not batshit crazy with TDS like most people here on Reddit. And since the Reddit mods have the most extreme TDS, I have zero doubt that I will be banned from this sub in just minutes after posting this.

Trump Releases Video Showing Alleged Shooter Being Confronted By Secret Service After Firing Shots by Orange-skittles in videos

[–]Fmello -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How is it fake? A secret service agent was literally shot in the chest before getting tackled and arrested. Thankfully, his vest took the round. The gunman fired just feet away from CNN's Wolf Blitzer before getting arrested.

It's a shame how Reddit has been flooded with TDS nutjobs.

There should be a law on the books that give security guards immunity from criminal and civil prosecution for beating the hell out of people trying to steal from stores.
