You have kids? Maybe if you weren't such a butt hurt, leftist child, it would help.

yes, taxing the rich does poll well. look it up. you think a normal voter is going to have an issue with anyone who has over $100 million paying more in taxes? lol

It may poll well, but taxing the rich doesn't address the actual problem of overspending, and sooner or later, you run out of other people's money. Cut the budget. Stop paying shit-hole countries to be our friend. Stop funding wars. I'm personally fine with cutting defense spending. There are plenty of other options, and the increased revenue from the idea is a drop in the bucket. It's stupid.

warren buffet's dad was a congressman, pretty sure branson grew up rich, bill gates stole from Xerox and certainly didn't come from nothing, brin's mother was a programmer at NASA I think and had a ton of connections, brin's parents were both programmers and he had access to computers and tech that normal people wouldn't while young during that time etc.

the point being, it wasn't just "hard work" that got them where they are. billionaires are a result of either generational wealth or extreme luck, not even getting into the ethics of it. the fact that people think "that could be me, too" and everyone is just a millionaire in waiting is a brainwashed idiot who is just eating what they're being served.

According to Forbes, 70% of billionaires are self made.

It's not always due to generational wealth or extreme luck.. anymore than it is always due to hard work.

You are projecting your own experience on this.. you grew up a loser and will never amount to anything.

That's not the American Dream and that's not the fate of people who actually put forth effort.

But continue to wallow in your "I can never make anything of myself because I have no generational wealth so why even bother!"

A loser like you will never understand love or family or success.

Maybe stick to subjects you actually have experience with: Sucking dick.

[Parkbandit]

Love this.

You don't know what unrealized gains are, do you?

Anyway, do you think the problem is that the government doesn't take in enough tax dollars? Or is the problem that the government wastes too much of what they take in?

lol you're such an idiot.

"hey, these people on this list i copy and pasted are all self-made"

ok, actually, they had a lot of help and a good amount of them are from well-off families with connections so they had a big step up.

"forbes says they are self made"

lol you're going to die alone and unloved, wrapped in Donald Trump 'take america back!' napkins

stop posting

the whole debate we're having here is about what polls well.
