If the incident with his taxes does nothing more than awaken more Americans to how the tax code is the primary way govt makes sure a tiny group of Americans gets much more than they deserve & the vast majority of Americans get much less than they need, then it’s good it happened.

Also joe Biden used tax loopholes to keep money from the IRS so if it’s in the rule of law everyone will use them . Also he wasn’t president not many president really care . It’s what he is doing as president that matters

I don't make close to what POTUS makes but I damn sure use all the loopholes that I can use. Is that wrong? I want to keep more. Biden will close loopholes for all. Just not the rich

The incident with Trump’s taxes won’t awaken anyone with common sense. Legally avoiding paying no more in federal taxes than necessary is something every smart person should do. Trump has paid 100s of $Millions in social security, employment, property, state, local, etc. taxes.

It’s a tax code that ANYONE can use, if they take the time to learn the system. It’s a rigged system. Not Trumps fault that it’s a fraud to make the middle class pay for everything. Washington’s Biden, Pelosi, and Bernie have been writing those laws for 50 years.

"Never Trumpers are very upset that Trump took advantage of the tax code they wrote." I am all for anyone who can find a way to pay nothing to the IRS. Not a reason to vote for or against him. He did not help pay for the wars Marianne and Biden so enjoy.

As boring as it is, macroeconomics is at the core of most of our challenges and aspirations. It requires a massive upgrade if we are going to evolve as a culture. civilution.org

The ONLY way it will ever be fair is if the get rid of income tax and just do sales tax. People that just pay for rent and groceries pay nothing. When you buy clothes, furniture and cars you get taxed. Trump has $250k diamond crusted doors in one of his houses. He should be taxed

The top 10% pay 90% of taxes.
