….when a “progressive” realizes that taxation, at its root, is essentially those who don’t create anything, extorting from those who do:
“Our Olympian and Paralympic athletes should be worried about breaking world records, not breaking the bank, when they earn a medal,” said Schumer.
“Government is the things we all do together taking from net creators and giving to net consumers”.
Is the irony not lost on him?
knowing Schumer everyone who wins a medal except Ginny Thrasher will be exempt from taxes.
So people who don’t have real jobs but make a living playing childrens games shouldn’t get taxed?
Chucky, now you got it! And demoncRats can bank on their vote.
Sen. Schumer has been a major proponent of being able to deduct your state tax payments from your taxable income for federal tax purposes. He’s okay with an ever increasing federal tax burden, but when his constituent banksters, hedge fundsters and other inherited wealthsters might catch a higher bill because they choose to reside on Planet Manhattan, he’s the supply sider at Laffer’s elbow.
If only we could tax irony.
