yeah "Curb your Enthusiasm" on being American and living out that upwardly mobile or even basic security dream/giphy
The thing is that like it or not people with the means will and can just up and go to another country or island and say adios to a 43% tax. Living costs are going up with living standards on many things going down, I'd like to know how this LARGE hike is going to affect people who don't need a damn lambo but want some sort of mobility upwards. God Forbid anyone moves in on bankster territory.

The wealth gap keeps growing and unfortunately history shows that this type of society tends to implode on itself or radically change. In tons of places a good 6 figure income is the minimum for a safe and nice place to live and in America it really does matter.
In my last post I just presented things and let the reader feel how they want to about it and this is the same.

I read this and hope he keeps his word to not gut the middle class which is the backbone ......a sea of people who get cut out of many things for making too much or too little and are integral in civilizations that prefer peace over war and do think there is a duty to give a f*ck about others. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/18/biden-tax-plan-what-people-making-under-and-over-400000-can-expect.html
Compassion isn't a bad thing, it's a sign that you still have any vestige of humanity left.
A fair amount of tithes to keep society half way okay is irrelevant to me but I'm neither a money worshipper nor some "rogue" who thinks they are above all law.....that's just me, you do you ;) am more of a live and let live type unless it adversely affects others, being ruled by Sociopaths is a hard pill to swallow.
hope the tax revenue doesn't go to war since that greases the wheels of a lot of things
Personally I think it's good to reign in SOME things but that is mostly the Technocrats who are actively seeing how even the white collar crew can be automated. The people carving out our futures are frightening and some of their agendas are as well. 43% though isn't going to go over too well considering the instability going on at the moment and maybe that's the point.
