Unfortunately I don't make $10 million a year so I wouldn't fall under his 52% tax bracket.

What political party has the most people in this tax bracket? That’s right the poor little democrats. They paid him off last time but he didn’t get the message. The democrat elite will murder the man before July. CNN will report about his untimely heart attack

I’m self employed, I’d make everyone pay me cash, get on disability, and pay 0% taxes

I’d keep doing what I do now. Stockpile gold and silver. And pray he dies of a heart attack.

over what income number would be taxed at that 50% rate? its over 2 million and under 10 million.
and the income below 2 million is at 45, 40, et cetera on down to your 32 or 25.
like you have to worry about tax on your 3rd million. lol.

for most people, not paying for blue cross or college debt makes up nicely for a couple percent higher tax at their actual bracket levels.

I would make a run on my bank and bury my savings as your wealth would not be safe with that commie in office. Then I would quit my job and live off the system until it crashes and burns. I would not bust my arse at the same level for 50-60% of my current pay.

everyone else in this thread would thank the Divine Person that they somehow made from 2 million to 9.999 million in one year to get up into that bracket.

it would be a boon for bitcoin

crypto currency is basically a credit score barter system

the IRS will have a tough time collecting.

real evil in his plan is that he wants a NEW 4% flat premium on all income over $29K

The 52% is for complete class envy show. It would hit about 16,000 Americans and even then, only in theory.

The 4% is just another across the board arse raping.


Yep!

Don’t forget he’s also mentioned wanting to modify the estate tax, Threshold at 3.5MM

Is really Fn sad that the DEM and MSM pushing for bigger govt and constant identify politics have let Pandora out of the box...and the DNC will have a devout socialist representing their party in the presidential election. Hope TDS isn’t too bad with independents and moderate Dems.

I’m pretty sure that thing that said that his plan was for everyone who makes over $29,000 would be taxed at 52% was wrong. I don’t think he has said that everyone above that amount would get taxed at 52%.

Now maybe it would eventually happen, but I don’t think he has said it.

You think paying a couple more % actually pays for BCBS or takes care of student debt? That’s cute

Why did college cost sky rocket and student loan debt sky rocket? The govt garunteed the loans, now the govt solution is higher taxes, how about getting the govt out of student loans.

More govt is not the solution.

People forget about that little piece of government called Congress. No chance anything close to that gets to the his desk if he’s elected.

If Bernie is elected, folks better learn how to grow beans and Taters if they want to eat. Venezuela has given us the model.
We won't have guns, and killing animals is now illegal in most states, so the collies and German Shepherds will be off limits for stew.
Starbucks will be gone. $15.00 an hr workers and folks with no money.

I think we may witness the second Boston Tea party except this time in DC.

The lady in a Grand Caymen said if you buy property there you don’t have to pay any taxes.
