    Dan Crenshaw Retweeted Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

    No one thinks this is scandalous. Dance away (was actually pretty good). What is scandalous is increasing income taxes to 70%. It’s wholly unethical for anyone to work a majority of the year just to give their money to the government. Dancing’s great, but ideas matter more.https://twitter.com/aoc/status/1081234130841600000 …

        Laughing to myself as socialism’s defenders exclaim “but its MARGINAL tax rates!”, as if that makes the 70% proposal any more ethical or intelligent. We know the rates are marginal. Doesn’t change the argument.

        The 70% tax is for income over $10M. It does not impact a single dollar on the first $9,999,999 earned that year. This impacts the 0.0006% of the population that has benefited the most from society. No one needs that much money when 1/6 children in our country go hungry each day

        How can you decide how much money someone needs? No matter our politics, we do in fact live in a capitalistic society. Earnings are exactly that......earnings. You, me, and the government have no right to determine what is fair. That’s crazy talk.

        So was US tax policy for most of the 20th Century scandalous? Isn’t it more scandalous that top 1% of Americans reap 2/3 of income gains. Many top earners know they didn’t earn that all themselves.

        Since 82% of the wealth goes to the top 1%, I have no problem taxing them at a rate commiserate with their wealth.

        And workers do 99% of the work while getting just 18% of the wealth they generate. If Republicans truly cared about people getting paid what their work is worth, they would be socialists.

        The union drives of the 1930s brought an unprecedented rise in the American standard of living by the 1950s. Then the union-busting started, and the downpour came to a trickle. If we are to make America great again, the workers need to be empowered again.

        The great depression was caused by the over-reach of the rich. There was plenty of money around, yet somehow we got a great depression. The standard of living dropping and the union-busting directly correlate. The stronger the unions have been, the stronger the economy has been.

        I'd like to feel the pain of 70% tax. That is a good problem to have. Haha. I bet 99.99999% of the outrage people don't even come close in being affected. This is how the rich get the less savvy to defend them.

        This is a good discussion of AOC's call for a top tax rate of 70-80%. Tl; dr: she's actually saying what top public finance economists have been saying for some time.

        You’d be surprised, I’m pretty smart. The point being, no sane person would allow their government to tax them at a rate of 70%. Or would defeat the purpose of effort and cause the rich to leave to a more reasonable taxing nation.
