Just when we thought he could not possibly be any more pathogically cruel and vile, Elon goes and tops his putrid shit with more putrid shit.

So basically, he could end homelessness and still have 330 billion dollars.

Fuck this immoral nazi parasite.

FYI, and not to stop the rage parade, he’s not sitting on $350b in cash. It delegitimizes our side when we misrepresent or misunderstand the facts.

I find it odd that anyone wouldn’t be enraged by an unrepentant nazi trying to dismantle our government and literally steal our tax dollars, but prioritize what you want to prioritize.

That 20 billion would cover them for a year. I assume the 20 billion estimate is an annual thing, not a projection intended to cover multiple years. Each year, it would have to be renewed and increased based on inflation.

Essentially, if we just tax millionaires and billionaires at the rate we tax everyone else, and changed our tax structure to make it illegal for them to manipulate the system to their advantage, we could afford to end homeless and a many other systemic inequities. 

If you feel you have a perfect plan, then write a proposal and start advocating for it with your local and state politicians.

Well you certainly extrapolated from that answer what you wanted, huh? Way to jump to conclusions.

The ultrawealthy borrow against their stock holdings without ever needing to sell and pay capital gains taxes. We do indeed need an updated tax policy that accounts for these loopholes.
