Where the rich call for wealth redistribution and the middle class fight for lower taxes, welcome to clown world
>>
>>542895760
>100k
that's nothing these days. it gets you food and a tiny studio apartment
>>
>>542895942
In Canada $100k gets you whatever you want.

Even earning over $60k makes you a garbage person unless you’re the businessman creating jobs
>>
>>542895760
Trump levied the largest tax increase on americans in history tho.
>>
>>542895999
>if you move to a third-world country and earn bare-minimum American salary you can live well
thanks captain obvious
>>
>>542896048
Largest tax cut on Americans in the BBB
>>
>>542896052
Even the Epstein pedophile elite aren’t esrning $100k in USD

I have Amerixan friends, some of the very rich, and they don’t earn close to that. Outside of NYC Manhattan that makes you pedophile rich.

If someone was esrning $100k in any other city they’d be flayed alive
>>
>>542896124
Those tax cuts were largly already in place since 2017
but they are dwarfed by his import taxes. hes taxed americans so much theres a surplus of almost 5k per person he wants to give back. most people dont even see a 5k return on their income tax
>>
>>542896182
You don’t know what you’re talking about. 150k/yr is minimum for middle class today.
>>
>>542896260
Over $80k makes you a disgusting pig

You have no idea what you’re talking about. I earn $60k and I’m easily above middle class
>>
>>542896207
Do he increased revenue? I thought a big compliant is that he cut taxes while increasing spending, leading to higher deficits, sounds like he’s increasing revenue to offset the increase in defense spending
>>
>>542896395
Trump claims to have recieved trillions in taxes from his import taxes. so that would be trillions taken from working americans.
Im sure youre right that it was all sent to israel for his war so the debt wont go down.
>>
>>542896349
There’s alot of people who think they’re middle class but aren’t middle class. They are in a state of denial. It’s like drinking to fuck an ugly woman, but they apply it to their finances. The middle class has shrunk considerably over the past 20 years.
>>
>>542896452
None was sent to Israel this is the biggest meme floating around online.

And trump is obviously full of shit about the trillions, it would have been hundreds of billions at most which I think the stats say
>>
>>542896501
I know, 99% of people who claim to be middle class are actually rich. I openly call the middle class trash because the actual middle class people I’ve run into beg for money and do absolutely nothing

If you make over $50k you aren’t a good person, if you make over $80k you’re just disgusting.
>>
>>542896527
Trump just truthed yesterday he was mad dems were trying to block 3 billion to israel, so idk he seems to love sending my paycheck to jews.
he should use our army to raid their central bank and take all the gold in israel to pay us back for the decades of free stuff. that would be america first IMHO. collect all their gold fillings and rings
>>
>>542896616
$3bn?

The feds spend over $3 trillion on healthcare and social security
>>
>>542896651
So lets cut back on the 3 billion for jews and focus our attention on healthcare and social security.
Lets not waste money on both.

even a single penny for israel is far too much and America last. it REAKS of USAID style free stuff for browns
>>
>>542896589
Middle class isn’t your opinion. It’s defined by math and statistics. The median income in 2025 was already over $80,000. That doesn’t even take into account income which is being slipped under the rug.
>>
>>542896709
We could easily expand aid to Israel by 10x and cut taxes if we got rid of social security and Medicare.

We could increase the military, fund Israel ukraine and keep military bases open if we fully got rid of social security and Medicare
>>
>>542896834
That’s household income and that’s obviously overinflated anyway.

Also on a global scale, if you earn more than 60k you’re in the 1%. Even being in the top 10% makes you a shit person
>>
>>542897004
Id rather fund none of israel and keep social security so hard working americans can retire.
I know jews want goys to be debt slaves and work at walmart into their 90s so they can have socialism healthcare and free abortions but i dont see why thats our responsibility to pay for
>>
>>542897124
I don’t want people to be retired pedophiles raping kids or trying to meet up with 13 year olds online

I want you to love what you do and want to work. The happiest people are those who do what they are passionate about and enjoy it.

>>542896260
Only about 18% of the US population makes $100k+, only about 9% of them live outside of high cost of living coastal areas.
$150k earners are 8%ish of pop, with 4% being outside hcol coastal regions.
If you include household income (all incomes within household) these numbers are obviously higher. But $100k and $150k are more than what most people make, I also think the numbers are likely inaccurate and it's probably less in reality, gov likes to inflate this to make people think there are still opportunities.
>>
>>542897222
>I don’t want people to be retired pedophiles raping kids or trying to meet up with 13 year olds online
yea i agree we should kick most jews out of the country.
>>
>>542897364
Or we could give Americans human rights and cut social security
>>
>>542897629
im sure that makes sense in your kike head.
shame all the good shills got blasted on oct 7th. your flailing

We will be pulling the gold fillings from the corpse of your gassed grandmother to pay back every cent of aide that was ever sent to israel

Uneducated boomer memes. It was always noted that professional revolutionaries are intelligentsia. Lenin wrote about this and made it a cornerstone in his ideology. Uneducated workers don't have the time to do philosophy and politics and don't have the education to understand marxism.
>>
>>542897747
>>542895760
As an additional point, the middle classes fighting for lower taxes is precisely why the upper classes need to lead the revolution. Lenin discussed this in What Is To Be Done. A lower-class, spontaneous revolution will only aim for their immediate goals because proles are only concerned with day-to-day survival. They develop "trade union consciousness" where they can organize for immediate goals (taxes, working c
conditions, pay) but will never organize for long-term goals, because they lack the intelligence, time, and will to do so.

Hey, it's 100k-fag again.
>>
>>542897728
>without social security people can’t retire

Literal mental illness. Social security steals money from the working people. Without it you would have more money to save and invest throughout your life


>>542897747
You’re so dumb and uneducated

Lenin was not part of the ultra rich. He was in the upper middle class.


You’d expect the Democratic socialists to be upper middle class Ivy League people, not the ultra rich. The entire point of this meme is that it’s the top wealthy who are supporting the system that reshuffles their wealth

Rich kids always lead communism. They have the education to care about it, the free time to become activists, and the plentiful enough background to be idealists. Coming from managerial mindsets and accustomed to having wealth shared with them without any work thanks to their parents, they just find it natural to think about creating a more equitable and functional system out of civilization. They also know, again from their own abundant background, that money doesn't solve everything, and the wealthy lifestyle doesn't actually lead to happiness.

They are opposed by the working class, who in their serfdom have contracted the sickness of work. Having lived their whole lives needing to work as hard as they can to make ends meet, they confuse slavery itself with moral virtue. If you can only be a slave, then the best person must be the best slave. Due to coming from backgrounds of scarcity, they are less generous and view discussions of communism with suspicion; they can't help but think it's an attempt to steal what little they have.

They are more deeply opposed by the middle class, those temporarily embarrassed millionaires who feel they are thiiiiiis close to finally accumulating enough wealth to sit like effendes and eat. They don't want the exploitation game to end right before they win it, even if in reality they're nowhere close to winning.
>>
>>542898104
It doesn’t matter which one is esrning the money

If the combined household income crosses $100k then they’re disgusting pigs

Don’t care if it’s $90k and $10k or $50k and $50k
>>
>>542895760
Socialists are the immoral dregs of the upper class using a failed ideology to try and destroy the competent upper class and in the process they don't care how badly they harm the working class.

Thanks for the daily reminder. Leftists are all children of parents from higher socio professional categories.

Shill try to change the subject by derailing the thread with pointless stats because the topic makes them incredibly uncomfortable; leftists are literally the children of elites or the upper middle class (if they’re all in higher education, it’s precisely because of that domino effect, not because of intelligence; just look at how moronic they remain) who act as spokespeople for the poor without actually living the multiculturalism they preach (unironically, they’re often "Aryan", white with blue or green eyes, because they don't mix ; they're kind of like Jews in reality). They are the rich people who deserve to be beheaded, all those city center leftists guzzling Starbucks; they are the rich ones who need to be killed and who want you dead, not the trillionaires we couldn't give a shit about. These wealthy leftists talk about "the rich" while pointing fingers at guys like Elon Musk, but it’s the everyday wealthy leftists who want you dead, shilling for bullshit like public transport while riding electric buses packed with tourists and well-off people heading straight to the airport, certainly not riding alongside the niggers. Leftists fantasize about the peace and quiet of countries like Japan and go live there while remaining vile leftists; they are abject human beings who ought to be wiped out.

Those same filthy sons of bitches will try to lecture you on life, claiming people become sociopaths because of poverty, even though they’ve never actually rubbed shoulders with those kinds of people. You really have to have been born with a golden spoon in your mouth to still be a leftist past the age of 11.

>intelligentsia eradicated
>paranoid mustache man drinks non stop and bungles everything
Commies are retarded. Napoleon and Hitler both showed their model (which are both similar) as a more successful model until it stretches thin. Really nationalism without imperialism would be the best, but only really US and Russia can do that due to resource and food availability.
And the US has a jew infestation so we are being dragged into imperialism.

>Where the rich call for wealth redistribution and the middle class fight for lower taxes, welcome to clown world
That's literally how it's always been. The idea that socialism has ever been a "bottom up" thing only exists because until relatively recently the government was in control of all mass media, so we only heard the story as told by the people who were in power. In reality socialism has always been pushed by the politically connected rich as a means to keep the less politically connected poor, middle class, and even other rich people who just aren't politically connected from competing with them. Socialism is in many ways just a modern version of medieval mercantilism, where established firms are protected from competition by the state.

A lot of people making those salaries live on coast. 100k in some California shithole is not the same as 100k in rural Tennessee where I live. I make 71k before bonuses. After taxes I make about 1100 a week. After 401k 900 a week. I should up that. 3600 per month has 1200 go to rent. 2400 per month has 400 go to groceries. 2000 per month has 300 to utilities. 1700 has 400 go to health, car and renter insurance. So I end up with 1300 per month to spend on gas and other expenses. If I max my roth ira a year the 15600 unspent yearly income turns to 8100 or 675 a month. I should increase 401k as well so that would drop to 600 or less to get marginally close to maxing 401k.
I am spending a lot of my excess income on retirement investing because I am not a retard that expects social security to exist. Or it will exist and they will have to take out debt to pay which causes inflation. Economy is just fucked. Growing up 71k a year would own a mcmansion. Now I cant even qualify for a mortgage.

Should be buying precious metals with that roth money anon

Better wealth distribution and higher taxes are not mutually exclusive. There is a good argument to be made that the government is not spending enough money and that the lower middle and working classes are overtaxed.
>>
>>542899307
You only make so much becsuse you live in a rural shithole and no one wants to live there
>>
>>542899489
The Goverbment is spending way too much and the lower classes and middle classes pau almost nothing

You only start paying 30% marginal tax in the higher brackets
>>
>>542899531
More people move to the south every year now and leave the coastal cities, so no
>>
>>542899562
If people can't meet their desires to save, they are overtaxed.
>>
>>542899648
That’s becsuse they spend too much

I’m rich and can’t save but it’s becsuse I spend too much on beers and dumb shit and I realize that
>>
>>542899693
If nobody spends the economy grinds to a halt. As the issuer of the currency, the government is the one in this equation who can sustainably run a deficit.

This is debunked MMT bullshit

Commercial banks create money when they make loans, the central bank creates base money by making loans to commercial banks
>>
>>542899948
The central bank is the government. It is an agent of Congress.

It's supposed to be an indepent agency. Although trump is appointing people that aren't so independent
>>
>>542900112
>It's supposed to be an independent agency.
Who told you that? It doesn't make a ton of sense, does it? Why would an "independent agency" remit interest back to the Treasury?
>>
Socialists are just people whose current position in life shields them from poor economic policy.
>>
>>542900007
Ok? That doesn’t change what I said. They loan money into existence

This has nothing to do with federwl budget deficits
>>
>>542900387
That’s not what people mean when they say independent
