poor people are to stupid to understand capital allocation, hence why they're still poor. Billionaires will simply move their capital somewhere else, or repatriate themselves and their capital where conditions are more favorable. This is just the nature of capital. Learn the rules or stay poor.

Spending won't be cut, it's to politically unpopular. All roads lead to increasing the money supply, so act accordingly.
>>
>>534817289
Why would you cut spending?

The government MUST spend at origin in order to leave behind money in the economy for the private sector to generate a surplus from.

How dumb can you possibly be?
>>
>>534818248
The government never needs financial capital from anyone. It creates the money. What matters is industrial capital and over the last 40-50 years the capital/billionaire class has already shown themselves willing to hollow out American industrial and productive capital for their own private gain.

The lesson to take from that experience is not to be more accommodating to billionaires or to the rich. It is to view them with skepticism, mistrust, and to create State-owned and State-operated alternatives.

After all, the government has theoretically infinite money. It gets its real resources from the same place the private sector does -- the general population and territories under its control or through negotiated trade access with those it does not. Simply outbid the private sector.

Increasing the money supply in an unprincipled way where its immediately captured by already saturated assets does more damage than cutting, and diminishes the power of the govt.

I bet not. That grocery store bagger probably pays no taxes (the bottom quintile doesn't) and he gets the earned income tax credit, which is a check for some free money. He makes money by paying his taxes.

The point should be under which does government get the most revenue. Look up Laffer Curve. It graphs the amount of revenue collected at what tax rate. Unless you think the purpose of the tax system is to hand out rewards and punishments, which most people do.

Why are we talking in absolute numbers? It's more like despite all his tax breaks and collateral stock loans he STILL pays such a hugely significant amount in taxes. It's all percent based. Like it should piss off people that the 1%+ keep paying more as a ratio to the total amount.

In a good economy without kikes, the bottom 50% should be keeping up with their ratio of taxes contributed (roughly) not becoming a smaller and smaller percent each year. If people weren't really stupid on average they'd be really pissed!
>>
>>534823193
The government doesn't receive revenue because it needs revenue in order to spend. The government creates money. It spends its own money unit into existence. Taxation just reverses that process -- it deletes/destroys money.

The federal government never applies any of the revenue that it gets to anything.
>>
>>534817289
Proportional effects. If I make 100 million dollars a year and half of it goes to taxes I still don't have to go without necessities or even make go without things that I want. Where as if I make 100k a year and 30% of my money goes to taxes I have to decide if a kid, house, repairs, a vacation, etc is in the fucking budget.
Fuck this stupid ass argument. Also, its not even necessarily about them not paying taxes but that they buy literally fucking everything and want to make it so we have to pay them in perpetuity for shit like, a computer, a car, shelter, food, clothing, etc WHILE our tax money is making them rich and they create a surveillance grid so you instantly become a criminal if you dont come to a complete stop at a stop sign when no one is around to be burdened by it let alone witness it.

What if we raise taxes AND cut spending
Then give all the surplus to me?
>>
>>534823501
The IRS collects taxes on behalf of the federal reserve that is supposed to use it to pay down the debt. Except they take a 6% cut of the money its prints every year. The FED is not a government institution. Its a "quasi governmental agency" with a nebulous term which means its private, i.e not a public (government) institution.
Imagine what 6% of the debt looks like. Lol. Its more than all the taxes collected which means neither the interest nor the principal is paid down. Ever. Imagine trying to get a loan when you have never made a fucking payment. That's what the government does every year. We are owned by the FED who uses the government and military to do its bidding.

Can you show me where in the federal reserve act that it says that? Can you show me anything at all that says that?
>>
>>534824669
Oh, I meant that it was implied that was the point. Actually, we pay taxes to give money to the shareholders of the fed. You know, because its such a hard job printing money out of thin air. It would actually mean something if these "share holders" at any point in their history actually had to bear the cost of their decisions but we just end up holding the bag.
>>
>>534817573
That has nothing to do with it. The government is paying him to do work that they can't get done themselves.
>>
>>534826753
This is the exact reason palentir even exists. Its unconstitutional for the government to do it so they pay a private company to do it.
>>
>>534824107
>pay down the debt
When the money is created out of thin, the debt is structural. Debt is not the same thing for a national government that it is for you or for a business. You cannot create deposits. Governments can.

Governments do not borrow money, no matter what they tell you. They create money when they spend, at origin. The Federal Reserve is an agent of Congress.

There is no accounting requirement to pay interest on bonds. It is a self-imposed restraint. Issuing bonds at all is a self-imposed restraint. It is a policy choice that was made.
>>
>>534827583
The FED actually decides what congress gets. Even if congress passes a spending bill the FED has the ultimate authority if that spending bill gets passed. The FED is not a government agency. Its a privately owned central bank with shareholders.
>>
>>534827779
Yeah, you're just wrong. Sorry to say. These are conspiracy theories that they feed to conservatards so they always look at the material instead of the mechanism (not unlike when they convince conservatards that gold is money).

I have 2 degrees, anon. Finance and electrical engineering. Its not a "conspiracy theory". What i posted is in econ 101. Macro and micro economics both cover the fed, its role, and outline how the FED is the last stop for congressional spending bills. They recieve, which is in their charter, a 6% "fee" for operations cost. Speaking of their charter, they're also not supposed to be able to own property outside of operational requirements yet on their 2024 balance sheet owned 2 trillion in low-income housing. Hmm mm, curious about that charter that seems to have been used as toilet paper after the 2008 bail outs.

>>534829331
There should be salary caps on corporate executives that is "x %" of the lowest paid employee. There should be other loopholes closed. I am strictly AGAINST inheritance tax, however, as that is the single mode of wealth generation that everyone shares and would disproportionately effect the middle and lower class. This will become an exceedingly obvious bullshit wealth-grab when boomers and older Gen x start dying off and their bloated property values become unaffordable to their children.

Once a CEO hits a networth of 30 million they should be forced to retire and invest so they're stuck rich for life and can fuck off, and then their company becomes owned by the state and the employees.

Well what if the cap adjusts and accounts for inflation. And also, think about it, this is actually 900 billion IQ. If we set a cap, a CEO won't want to reach it because then they'd lose control, so they'd have to actually use their earnings to wage raises, build new buildings for employment, etc.

when some individuals confiscate proportionnally more and more of a country's wealth, to the point where they start directly interfering with elections, governments, world conflicts, you know it's a threat to the social contract and democracy in general. That's why taxes were introduced, to avoid these problems, so that there is a rule other than the rule of money.

>>534830247
While I dont necessarily disagree with where your heart is there is a massive problem that remains ignored: the investor parasite class that is antagonistic to our economy.
The old days of Adam Smith economics where a company is financially bound to the health of the community in which it resides ended with the steam engine and has been further and further reduced to irrelevance with every innovation in shipping, travel, and information sharing. Now the "investor" no longer gives a shit about the company, its employees, or the communities in which they reside but parasticize short-term gains then move on to the next host in an ever-growing feeding frenzy. The CEO exists as an intermediary between corporate profits and share-holder dividends.
