Most are delusional and think if they take tax loopholes away from the rich and corrupt, then when *they* become millionaires *they* won’t be able to take advantage of it smh

This is more of a business and tax literacy issue. The tax code is applicable to EVERY single person who sets up their business affairs in an intelligent way to reap the benefits. You must actually educate yourself on this topic and take the proper actions to benefit from it.

The tax code is definitely problematic. But his maneuvers around the code are not all legal either. Tax evasion is a 3 generation business in that family.

What, no one has heard that Jeff Bezos or Amazon doesn’t pay taxes? Trump is the big revelation? Rachel Maddow showed Trump paid 25 million one year so it’s not like he’s able to avoid them every year. If he had major losses he would be as the rest of us and not have a big bill.

Why does evil seem to be more organized than good, shouldn’t love be the unifying force that chaos can never trump?
