Actually, it is true; and you are free to believe whatever you want. [VIDEO] Warren Buffett and Bill Gates agree that the rich should pay higher taxes—here’s what they suggest https://www.cnbc.com/2019/02/25/warren-buffett-and-bill-gates-the-rich-should-pay-higher-taxes.html#:~:text=Warren Buffett: We should raise,t make them flee...&text=Warren Buffett doesn't think,“Squawk Box” on Monday.
Trump uses a lot of holding companies so you can take a fair bit off this idea of hundreds and others count chains as one, Trump makes every little anything its own entity (several companies sometimes) It's about the size of the failed businesses relative to his portfolio. You obviously know nothing much about how big, why they failed and how he used the courts to steal from creditors and investors keeping himself afloat in a display of breathtaking shamelessness that is his only special capacity. In the old days Trump would have been wearing concrete shoes.
Gates and Buffett are free to pay more. There is no requirement that keeps someone from only paying the minimum due.
No. They'll do it when all it applies to will do it. If the US is too dumb to see the benefit, then so be it...keep the status quo and see where we end up.
No. If they think it's that important, they need to step up and do it now. ---not when they are forced to. It's pretty simple.
No. They won't be taken advantage of like that. They've said that they support higher taxes for the rich; it's up to the people to make it so. If the people choose to continue to let the rich skate, then so be it.
If they support higher taxes, then go ahead and pay them at a higher rate. I do not support higher taxes and so I will not unless forced to. What I do support is cutting spending.
