A leftist is someone who wants to be philanthropical with other peoples money.

Nope, he just wants those as rich as he is to pay their fair share. Wealthy CEO’s lose other people’s money, still get millions in bonuses, and pay no taxes because of shelters and loopholes.
-
Just what is their fair share? And since he's not voluntarily giving his own money but demanding that others give their's he, and you, want to be philanthropic with other people's money.
-
Mr. Carrey wants to voluntarily have his own taxes raised in addition to those who have the same amount of money he has. Greedy people are gaming the system,paying no taxes, and that’s not fair.
-
If your problem is with gaming the system then support a flat tax or an overhaul of the tax laws not higher rates. In any case socialism is the government running things and everywhere it's tried it fails.
-
I'm afraid that shows a basic misunderstanding of what socialism is and the idea that it's failed everywhere is incorrect. Portugal has been one of the fastest growing economies in Europe since electing a coalition of communists and socialists to power
-
Nope sorry. Socialism lasts until it runs out of other peoples money. The communist countries are socialist and they failed economically, that's why China rejected socialism. Venezuela is failing. If Portugal is doing great in 20 years then we can talk.

You don't have to apologise amigo - everyone's entitled to their opinion! I do think it's interesting how people frame the debate around socialism as something that takes from other people, when in fact - capitalism is the system built upon that model. Socialism gives back.

Amazing how people who have wealth turn into socialists. Socialism isn't how THEY got there. They should have to spend a year in Venezuela without any of their privileges to experience what it means to live in a socialist society.

Other peoples money. Show me how charitable you are with your own cash b4 coming after mine.

Mr. Carrey thinks the richest people, including himself, should pay more to support our economic and physical infrastructure, unlike the real estate tycoon who boasted “Only the little people pay taxes!”

Socialism or Communism is not about giving away your wealth or personal property. It's about making it harder or impossible to make money through opression. You're thinking of Christianity and I wonder why people who call themselves Christians won't give away half their wealth.

Why do all the rich millionaires and billionaires need more tax breaks than those making much less? Don’t they make enough already?
