Um, many countries have tried yo just print money to pay for things. Money does not have a defined value, and it's value is determined by how much is There n circulation. Money becomes worthless rather quickly when the government prints it willy nilly (i.e. it's cheaper to burn the money than to use it to buy firewood).
So if you are genuinely asking "why not" just print money to pay for something, you are an idiot.

I am blessed with a general first hand knowledge of many industries, the downside being an expert in anyone of them required too many years. Things change, things that worked or mattered 20 years ago, may or may not today, and vice versa. Seeing some of the comments made. Pretty certain where I relate on the intellect and experience scale by comparison. Its also pretty funny that you mock me for giving you the trump treatment you seem to so love and voted for.

It;s like this-- Say a pal says to you, "I need 100$ and cant pay you back" the odds are a generous person like you would give it to him. Now if that same pal came to you and DEMANDED that you give them 50$ you would prolly tell them shove off? right?

If I were King, Zuck would be paying 40% arshole tax/fine. and another 40% you best not be selling data willy nilly with and to god knows who tax/fine. But here, this guy is way more qualified than I am to speak on the subject.

Mr. Buffett has frequently criticized tax laws and loopholes for enabling him to pay a smaller share of his income in taxes than his secretary. The so-called Buffett rule, which has been endorsed by Mrs. Clinton, would require people who earn more than $5 million to pay at least 30 percent of their income in taxes.

I think you are being to lenient on suckerberg, he is a d wad.

But again, I would rather have the $$ in Buffets hands than the governments hands. Buffet is smart with his money, creates some jobs , the gov just spends it like a drunken sailor sometimes. Buffet is free to donate the extra income if he really practices what he preaches.
I got into a discussion with a very liberal person I know from HS on Taxes. he said taxes should be higher, He owned a pizza shop where 99% of his income came in from cash payments. He also had a great accountant. I asked him of all the cash you get, do you report all of it to the IRS? he said "f**k no" I just shook my head.He is a used car salesmen now btw 4reel.

If he no longer owns the pizza shop, sounds like he could not afford even the taxes he was paying. In today's world if one makes under 50k I say no tax at all. All that means is those with 100k are paying 10%, 200k 20%, etc and capped at 48% for 5Million and over. or some odd combination therof... working people have been having their wealth (via exchange for labor, interest rates, taxes, cost of goods) redistributed to the top for decades, and have acted like frogs in a slowly cooking pot, its only got hotter, but the tolerance seems to have increased to disappointingly high levels.

He was rich, got a divorce, she got the pizza shop.He also sold pot on the side too. I think your tax plan is something Trump would like.Perot had something similar and the democrats grilled him on it

So what are you saying? Not to be a smartass at all, But you said that 8 guys own half the worlds wealth. Most of them are liberal especially Bezos, Zuckerberg and gates. are you saying they should give (or gov take away) most of their holdings?
It is a 2 way street, For years PPL bashed big corps like GM. GM was the biggest corp in the world for decades . It had earned Trillions over the yrs, Paid Trillions over the yrs in wages and taxes too. But when there were bad times, they folded and BHO had to bail them out.maybe if they had paid a little less in taxes they could have survived on their own?(maybe ceo's would have embezzled it? who knows) I understand he had to do it, but what about the little guy mom and pop shops, do they get a bailout? My family member had an engine building facility and the GM bailouts killed him, GM was selling the "Crate engines " at a slight loss after the 12 billion bailout because they had free money to play with. My family member could not compete and closed. it killed his whole industry.(along with kash for klunkers) robin hood in reverse. Not to be a smartass, real question-"what is right?" how much should ppl or gov take of someones wealth or profit? They did the hard work, took the major risks. THEY BUILT THAT. what is a fair %? again, there are good times and bad times as in the case of GM , sometimes too much taxes/wages kills the corp and you cant get $anything out of a dead corp
1 up, 6y
I actually think we agree with the bailout. That said, it did work for the big picture, and by 'work' I mean it kept us from a complete all out USSR style collapse. Imagine soldiers not getting paid, cops, fire, etc. Was it the best option? Instead of giving banks money, how about giving it to people to get out of debt? Here is the rub with that though, the banks did pay that money back. Would the taxpayer of just paid double later to accomplish the same thing? Maybe. We are headed there again, make no mistake. Will someone (s) head it off in time? Can not rule that out either. So what is a fair tax? Well the economy was pretty kicking back in the 1950s the upper rate was 95% most folks (participating in the census and lets be real white anyway) had one wage earner, two cars, a home, savings and little debt and both kids college funds were paid for by the time they graduated high school. Companies had profit sharing and retirement packages. That is all gone, and I do not see it ever coming back. Now if we could, and we included all races and creeds along with, then right on. Sign me up. My vision of maga. Totally unrealistic and lets move on. - Trump does not need a tax break. Neither does Warren, difference is Warren will flat out agree, and the trumps of the world will not. How many mansions is even moral to own? How much cash in a Cayman Islands tax fee account should you be allowed to have? Every dollar someone like trump is not paying is a dollar either you or your kids will be paying. Regulation (s) is not always a bad thing. Rant over. Cheers.
