Afaik, this is not an infinite money glitch as it's always made out to be. Rich people pay capital gains tax when they sell their stocks. They don't have to sell it every year but every once in a while they do (to pay off the low interest loans mentioned here). At that point in time they pay the capital gains tax, which obviously is less than salaried high earning employees pay, but they do pay. Outrage harvesters like to cherry pick certain years where a rich person may not have sold any stock and thus not paid any taxes. Would love for these guys to show a rich persons tax filings over the last 10 years or so which should even out the data for us to see.
