That's how these smooth brained liberals think. For example, someone on r/politics tried using this argument, "Well in Germany it's patriotic to pay more in taxes!" They'll use any rationalization for paying more money in taxes.
Right? They think that claiming Obongo paid something like 2 million in taxes in his FIRST year is a good thing... Where did a community organiser get enough money to pay 2 million of taxes on?
And while I do not begrudge the Obamas making oodles of money after leaving office, it does irritate the living crap out of me that we, the American taxpayers, are still financially supporting the fabulously wealthy Obamas.
Barack Obama receives an annual Presidential Pension (plus expenditures) paid for by us.
In fact, in 2018, the former President cost taxpayers $1,153,000.00.
Let me repeat that.
Taxpayers had to fork over one million, one hundred and fifty-three thousand dollars to multi-millionaire Barack Obama in 2018.
Now, the Presidential Pension is only $205,700 a year for life. So what in the name of sweet fancy Moses was the additional $947,300.00 for?”
These stories conveniently leave out payroll tax, property tax, and real estate taxes. That doesn’t even include the endless permits, licenses, zoning fees, etc. Trump paid to develop real estate. He also employed thousands of employees who also paid income tax.
Premise is bogus. Trump paid more fed taxes than Sanders did the year it was leaked on maddow's show. Also how is bernie a businessman? He's a career politician. I think socialist businessman is an oxymoron.
I could be mistaken, but Sanders does not run a business. He makes his money on speeches, writing books, and being in politics.
It shows how stupid Bernie is. If he was smart he would set up a personal business and have all the money he makes goes into the business so he would paying much less in income tax.
I dont think their is a single person in America that doesn't try and maximize their refund/minimize their tax hit. Who is this story written for? People in highschool who cant vote anyway?
Also what business is Bernie in exactly? Im confused by this shitty analogy.
If they're basing that off the $750 for 2016 and again for 2017, that's a lie. The NYT article even says Trump paid $1 million in 2016 and $4.2 million in 2017, when he filed for his extension. The $750 was additional (both years) after the extension.
I once got suckered into an MLM business. I never made any money with it because I just couldn't get enough people to sign up to also be independent consultants. That said, I'll never forget the woman that was the director for my region, making bank, saying "if you owe taxes in your business then you're not deducting everything you should be deducting". A good accountant or savvy business person knows how to use the tax laws to their benefit so that they owe the smallest amount of tax possible.
If he was, he would have done what Biden did and put all of that book money under an S.Corp and he wouldn't have had to pay nearly as much. But he's a socialist idiot, so...
Well he definitely does a lot less work, so maybe from an efficiency standpoint his scamming is better than actually accomplishing anything. Keep in mind most on reddit are socialist because they can't/don't/wont accomplish much of anything, so Bernie is an absolute hero to them.
That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works!
Bernie is a Commie. Change my mind

Bezos is a failed businessman who’s company pays zero income tax! /s
(If I recall correctly)
If using your political position to incur wealth is "better business" than, yes.

Drumpf has paid ZERO taxes on his Presidential salary. Has donated it all to evade taxes. ORANGE MAN BAD!
When a man has so much money that he no longer wants to get paid, he's made enough money.
If a genie came out of his lamp and asked Bernie if he wanted to trade financial positions with Trump how do we all know Bernie would respond?

These people live in clown world. What?!? Trump paid as little taxes as legally possible?
Premise is bogus. Trump paid more fed taxes than Sanders did the year it was leaked on maddow's show. Also how is bernie a businessman? He's a career politician. I think socialist businessman is an oxymoron.
What business does he run?
Check the records (I would do it but I'm lazy). See if there's a single legit business under Bernie's name.
Ow. The logic pains me
Bernie Sanders identifies as a businessman. His pronouns are "not a real communist" and "I totally understand economics you guys."
I could be mistaken, but Sanders does not run a business. He makes his money on speeches, writing books, and being in politics.
It shows how stupid Bernie is. If he was smart he would set up a personal business and have all the money he makes goes into the business so he would paying much less in income tax.
Tax avoidance is an American past time. -Dan Bongino
Ah yes, the economically illiterate.
It's bullshit anyways. The $750 thing is not TOTAL taxes.
media is a predatory enemy of the people taking advantage of ppl's ignorant of how tax law works
Bernie sucks at using tax credits and deductibles.
I dont think their is a single person in America that doesn't try and maximize their refund/minimize their tax hit. Who is this story written for? People in highschool who cant vote anyway?
Also what business is Bernie in exactly? Im confused by this shitty analogy.
They're so retarded I can't even
That proves one thing. Bernie is a very dumb businessman. Also, its a good thing he isn't our president or the US would be broke in no time flat.
What exactly is Sanders' business? Peddling marxist bullshit ?
Except you need to run a business to be a business man..

Uhhh they do know paying less taxes is a good thing right? Like, all this post proves is that Bernie isn't as smart as Trump.
Ok, so hear me out. I would argue "yes". I mean, the guy doesnt do fuck all, and yet people pay him money, enough to have to pay 343k in taxes.
Dont get me wrong, solid MAGA Trumper here, but hey.... sign me up to sell snake oil for a few million a year.

Imagine thinking Trump prepares and files his own taxes. These people are friggin' morons, not worth even listening to.
BERNIE HAS BEEN LIVING OFF PUBLIC MONEY HIS ENTIRE FUCKING LIFE
NIGGA OWES -ME- TAXES
If he was, he would have done what Biden did and put all of that book money under an S.Corp and he wouldn't have had to pay nearly as much. But he's a socialist idiot, so...
