Just imagine the uproar in the university of Arkansas campus yy when I posted about how Sam Walton is responsible for destroying millions of small businesses and widening the wealth gap

Yeah, the people who believe they’re entitled to your money are the billionaires. Their whole wealth is built on exploiting others, and massive government benefits to make their companies and themselves even richer

In what way are they entitled to our money? Last I checked, the bottom 50% of the population covers ~3% of federal income taxes so I think the billionaires fund a lot of people who don’t pay their taxes or pay a small amount

Billionaires also employ thousands of people and create opportunities for others to produce wealth, if you take the risk, you should get a bigger reward

If you de incentivize business owners they’ll also take their business with them, and therefore people’s jobs too

That may be true for some business owners, but a billionaire has an absurd, unimaginable amount of wealth. If you worked since Jesus was born for 40k a year (around average American salary) you’d barely make what Bezos makes in a day. That isn’t even including living expenses. That is how absurd the wealth gap in America is no amount of risk or hard work excuses that. Every dollar hoarded by a billionaire is less for your average American and neighbor

“Not everyone believes that they are entitled to other people’s money” Well clearly some do, because these properties aren’t primary residences. They take up space and resources but aren’t occupied (not even rented out a significant amount). Yet most of their owners don’t pay NY income tax. They’re lowkey freeloaders

As someone who works for a company that lowkey competes with GoDaddy, I’m here for the GoDaddy slander lmao. I have a feeling most of the reason they paid no tax is because tech companies are R&D-heavy, so they use the R&D tax credit a considerable amount. Not sure if this is where you got the info from but there’s a summary of some of the most common tax credits/deductions these companies used, and they (if they’re publicly traded) have to disclose some of these in their annual reports

I think I get the reasoning behind some of these tax credits (especially R&D), but I’m curious whether they actually produce the hiring and investment they claim to do (for software engineers, the TCJA changed how the R&D tax credit worked and is sometimes partly blamed for the job situation seen in that sector in 2019-2024) across other sectors. Then there are some like the executive stock options credit that I have a feeling do not actually produce the behavior their proponents claim
