So a Russian Oligarch paying Trump 96 million for a 41 million dollar home seems legit to you? He tore the home down shortly after.


What seems to bother you about it?

Trump fixed up the mansion property and sold it and made bank. If the man that bought it wants to dance naked on the roof or tear it down who cares?

It is a least as legit as someone with zero experience in commodities trading turning $10,000 into $100,000 their first time investing in cattle futures.

So everyone is OK with a guy making $150M a year paying the same tax rate as someone making $50k?

It's all relative dipshit.

I guess he should have made $150m and kept 5% for himself.
Seems fair dumbass

When that tax rate means he pays 38,000,000 in taxes you're damn right I am.

What is more fair than everyone paying the same rate?

If he kept 5% that is $7.5M which is still more than 99% of Americans make in a year.

He shouldn't be paying a 95% tax rate but it should be more than 25%. If he paid 50% on that income he is still in the top 1% easily.

It must be a burden to be so dumb. You have my sympathy and compassion. I am a liberal after all.

Of course!!!!!

If he paid 38 million in taxes for one year how many Americans would even make a tenth of that income in a lifetime? he's just one man that paid that many taxes give me a break people.

Yup. It makes no sense why we don't pay a flat rate across the board for everyone. Or better yet, get rid of the income tax all together. You're taxed based only on what you produce or consume, not for simply existing.
