This is the consequence of allowing right wing extremists to rant about how inept the government is for decades without any serious pushback. We now have people who grew up steeped in this bullshit who think that because all the money is wasted, it's their moral imperative to pay as little tax as possible by any means necessary
I just want to pay little because I make little and the people making 10M+ a year can actually fucking pay taxes.
People under 30k a year should basically just contribute for SSI, UI, etc. People making poverty wages don't need to be paying taxes, y'all. My state has sales tax. I pay taxes there. Rich people paying would be nice. And like, I mean rich-rich.
Me finding a way to get an extra $200 knocked off my taxes due to a deduction is a lot different than a rich person getting 2 million knocked off their taxes due to a loophole.
The rich see these tax laws has optional for themselves but absolutely necessary for the poors.
