The rich convinced us that taxing them is too complicated but everyday people can be taxed pretty easily

Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

No one needs 600M, your tax rate is too low.
I fully agree. Maybe a 70-80 tax on everything over 10 million.
Needs to keep up with inflation but yeah.
Nah why? We could boil the frog into 80% on everyone this way.
At some point $10m is the new $1m and normal people retirement would get taxed to death.
And? 1M of retirement money still makes you filthy rich bourgeoisie. State should tax the shit out of you, and provide back minimum fair sustenance.
It really does not.
The fuck...you clearly have no clue how much it costs to live these days...1mil retirement is a joke that's 50k a year if you're lucky, and that's only getting you 20 years. More than likely medical shit will eat that up.
