The IRS can audit the ultra wealthy exclusively and it still wont really change how fucked taxes are in the US. The tax brackets are a fucking wreck, capital gains is a joke, and estate tax is basically non existent.
It’s like cheering for Biden for really sticking it to those rich folk when he’s just checking their couch for quarters.
We really just need a corporate revenue tax. Any other method of taxing the ultra wealthy will be abused so that the ultra wealthy are the only ones not paying it
That’s what I am saying, this is nothing and we shouldn’t be celebrating nothing. It’s not like they fixed the Trump admin’s tax changes, it’s not like they’re taxing the wealthy more.
To do more than nothing takes an act of Congress and they’re not doing anything, they’re doing nothing. This is the legal equivalent of 4th grade graduation ceremonies.
Poor people can’t afford lawyers to fight back.
Rich people can.
ErgotErgo, they aim at poor people way more often.The Pentagon is not some rich dude with lawyers.
The military also doesn’t make any revenue probably.
Oh it does, just for private entities.
Yeah not my fault its a badly considered meme.
I was just responding to the second half.
The IRS isn’t in charge of auditing the Pentagon, congress is.
Or 99.9% of people are poor lol.
Besides, thank you Biden.

Ah true, guess we better do nothing rather than search for billion dollar quarters in the trillionaire holding elite class.

Not sure what grain fungus has to do with it
Well, they are pretty clearly tripping, so maybe grain fungus has more to do with it than we realize.
Nice catch.
ergotism is a sick grim salvo reference
