Day one of FREDposting until the top marginal tax rate is above 50%Our current system of government is a blend of oligarchy and democracy. Current power structure allows for democratic process on only horizontal issues (race, LGTBQ, third thing, other meaningless nonsense, etc). Oligarchs use outsized influence in our representative democracy to eliminate the people's influence when it comes to vertical issues (wealth/power inequality), namely through the creation and maintenance of the wealth protection industry (offshore bank accts, modern debt based avoidance measures, direct influence in the political/economic process ala citizens united, etc.)Instead of scapegoating the useful idiots, we should seek to continuously direct the conversation towards the issue of the top marginal tax rate- it is basically the equivalent of an occult fountain of dark power that can be destroyed if enough cultural and political attention is directed towards it. It is the space laser. Its location has been revealed to you. They will attempt do anything to weasel out of changing the tax rate, as history has shown us. it's important to note the happenings in the world at each instance of change to the top marginal tax rate.
>>537689450psychopaths will say it's forming a cup and handle
A high top marginal tax rate encourages the ultra wealthy to spend their money instead of hoarding it like some kind of degenerate dragon. This simultaneously reduces inequality and introduces capital to the goods and services sectors which we all benefit from.
>>537689237based FREDpostergood to see you
lust provoking imagery is the only thing that will get anyone to reply to this thread.
the subject matter of this thread is clearly far too heavy for a mongolian basket weaving forum.
>>537692710good luck brothese fucking retards would rather post the same useless shit they do every day. they dont want to change anything.
>>537692824If only they would awaken to the true nature of the psychological operation being levied against them- it is all to prevent them from realizing the content of my original post
Fun Top Marginal Tax rate fact #1:during the Reagan presidency, the top marginal rate of tax in the United States fell from 70% to 28%!
>>537691945Replying! Replying!!
What if the people in government wanted to reduce taxes for all their rich friends (and themselves after they leave public service), so they misappropriated and misspent countless billions through waste, fraud, and abuse, in an effort to discredit the concept of taxation itself?it's a boston tea party of the mind. no taxation without representation? or is it.. no representation without taxation.talk about having your bean and eating it too.
bump for interestLets tax those richy rich fags 90%.
>>537692824it's all jeets, jews, bots, and reddit knights (aka faggots) anymore

>>537695050oh wait im on pol. carry on retards. as you were
>>537694861dude hes like 18 let him try that big impressive word we all need to start somewhere (marginally speaking)
>>537693708HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDERADICAL DUDETOTALLY MARGINAL DUDECOWABUNGA magatard
>>537689237you won't last beyond a single day
>>537694979i was actually going to say, is it weird to say that the ratio of taxation to representation in the united states for the average pleb seems a little... British?
>>537695050>>537695091>>537695154>>537695203Marginal implies that there are boundaries- it's also what the damn thing is referred to as. I didn't name it.Earth itself has boundaries. also, you're retarded.
>>537695265>cryptically references some "day" I won't last beyond>still here
>>537694979let's say all of that is true. Where's the evidence?
>>537689237Attention is also controlled by corporations. What now? 10 anons from 4chan won't change it.Overall you are right, but the most valuable thing for oligarchy/bureaucracy/aristocracy whatever you call it is keeping the control. Giving in on taxes would indicate the harnesses slipping out of their hands. Unacceptable.
>>537696269Attention is ruled by those who give it. Unless those who give it are ruled by something else.. value can be a tricky beast. it's like, not even they can truly control it. they can merely attempt to direct it where they want it, by playing on our base natures, defects in our psychology.. but the numbers remain. The Top Marginal Tax Rate is quantifiable, everyone can see it. it's why they want you to hate democrats.
taxes don't address the issuethose companies need to be dismantled, competition needs to be imposed on the marketotherwise the government will keep bailing them out and picking winners, because now an even bigger share of its revenue comes from those monopolies
>>537689237reminder
op your charts are 15 years out of date you dumb fuck
>>537689237>tax rate>being real fiscal policy when government can print infinite dollars>infinite debt>taxes merely give a system the illusion of legitimacy.Lol imagine believing the economy is real
more kabuki theater where the only outcome is kikes making the world a worse place
>>537699060>anon sees last number of x axis on chart says 2010>anon doesn't into extrapolation>anon fails
>>537699243>>537699243they didn't print infinite dollars though. that would be impossible. nothing about our nations debt is infinite. by pushing this narrative upon yourself and others it is actually YOU who deny yourself the truth. Taxes work for us- why else wouldn't they want to pay?
>>537700424as I said before- it's clear that waste fraud and abuse have been weaponized to delegitimize the concept of taxation as a whole. My whole goal with this thread is to point out the fact that even within this corrupted system, the top marginal tax rate exists as a lever on financial power in society. instead of the endless kike-naming you idiots do around here, you could actually be forming conversations based around subjects such as the TOP MARGINAL TAX RATE, an economic mechanism with a historical track record of actually hindering their plans.just look at the absolute hissy fit they threw last time it was raised to 90%.
>>537698960alongside historic increases in the TMTR, there was also sweeping anti-trust legislation and reform. a lot of those laws are still in place, but are relaxed and clearly unenforced. The two actions go hand in hand. There's nothing stopping people from memeing this into existence in the same way they did Trump, and every other horizontal issue (LGTBQ, women vs. men, race) that is currently being pushed to distract from the main point i'm trying to get across.all the psyops are to train behaviors that support the horizontal nonsense conflicts that don't affect them. it's all to distract from the vertical conflict of class and unequal representation in government.
>>537689237Nominal and real tax rates are not the same. Go work and earn money. Maybe you will learn the difference, dipshit.
>>537702096ok i play in earnest good faithyoure obviously an elon/megabucks holder hater and i guess theres a case to be made for that especially if rooted in some ponzi scheme but i fail to see how rerouting monopoly dollars back into the fed grift machine makes any meaningful difference plus as they say its a big club and you aint in it. these guys all eating $5k/plate dinners with senators and appointed bureaucrats and aint doin shit for jon q publix. there is zero current incentive for the swamp dwellers to change anything to damage their fundercaptcha:kikestar
>>537698960in other words, they want less taxes, so the government is weak, so they don't have to listen to the government anymore. which opens the door for them to do all sorts of unsavory business to everyone who isn't them. It's also why so much of our government is compromised- they exploited human greed of representatives to reduce the effectiveness of government in reigning in moneyed interests.basically, the IRS needs backup that it's not getting in order to deal with the problem- that's why they go after the small fries. it's all they can handle.
>>537702643>moar govt would be gr-gr-gr-great
>>537702526you are directly referencing the waste fraud and abuse that is being weaponized against the concept of taxation- they are quite literally having their cake and eating it too. I agree that there is a big club. I agree that there is no incentive for them to change. WE are supposed to be the incentive. it's why they spend so much money and time trying to neutralize and sanitize the space with pre approved, manufactured strife. it is quite literally, all in our heads.
>>537702786yeah, i think a government that functions as it's supposed to by protecting people, and actually enforcing the laws it has on the books, is a good thing. it's the whole reason why people live together. strength in numbers. your disdain for government is a byproduct of its misuse.
>>537703214the bloat goes from the lowest level upwardsevery karen loaded 1 horse city council is trying to figure out how to rape more money out of the residents for silly shit like art displays and removing parking spaces in the yuppie district cause it dont look snooty enough and the state dept of transportation is trying to assrape everybody on gas tax and then throws a shitfit and falls in it when they get held accountable with a ballot initiative and say theyll never patch another potholethe rot is to the core and itll take full infrastructure failure to make things shitty enough to bring about a change
