How do you determine rich? Its not about salary really is it. The filthy rich do not receive standard pay and wages as normal workers do. It's these people that must be taxed and that includes all they receive and spend as corporate expenses . The normal worker gets taxed on perks and allowances. The filthy rich get away without any issue on their perks and out of pockets!
@4SZP3NV3yrs3Y
Yes, but also take into consideration the number of children supported in the household
@8JKW6L33yrs3Y
@8GDG6YG4yrs4Y
Yes, but only for people who inherited their wealth
@8SZT8Y93yrs3Y
Higher tax on the super rich and multi national corporations

There should be a flat tax on all revenue or gross income on corporations and individuals so as to more fairly generate funds for reinvestment into the infrastructure/utilities that an individual or business consumes.

Moscow could potentially boycott certain French goods, Russia’s Foreign Ministry spokeswoman warned on Sunday, after Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo said Russian and Belarusian athletes were “not welcome” at the upcoming Olympics.”Do you think maybe we should pick up some French products that are now widely represented in Russia and announce that ‘they will not be welcome’?” Maria Zakharova wrote on Sunday on her Telegram channel.The mayor of the French capital, which is due to host the Olympics in July and August, made her comments last week during a trip to Kiev, where she visited a training center for Ukrainian athletes.”I want to tell the Russian and Belarusian athletes that they are not welcome in Paris,” she said, despite contestants from both countries being officially allowed to take part as neutrals.Responding on the mayor’s words, Zakharova noted that Russia has “a huge selection of [goods] that can be used to replace a number of French products.”She predicted that if further statements of that kind are made in Paris, “representatives of French business will storm the Paris City Hall, following the farmers.” She was apparently referring to agriculture workers rallying against rising costs, taxes, and strict EU regulations. In late February, protesting farmers stormed a major Paris farm fair ahead of a visit by President Emmanuel Macron, with many calling for his resignation.After the start of the Ukraine conflict in February 2022, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) recommended that athletes from Russia and its close ally Belarus should not be allowed to compete in international events. In December last year, the body ruled that a limited number of people from the two countries could participate in the Olympics as AINs (individual neutral athletes).Earlier this month, the international body announced that the maximum number of Russians who can qualify for the Paris Games is 55, while Belarus is limited to 28 athletes. However, according to IOC director James Macleod, the teams are unlikely to meet the quotas, with some 36 Russian and 22 Belarusian athletes expected to make it to the games.Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said that the IOC decision “destroys Olympic ideals and discriminates against the interests of Olympians.” The restrictions are “absolutely contrary to the entire ideology of the Olympic movement,” he added.

Ms. Haley has pulled slightly ahead of Mr. DeSantis in the Real Clear Politics average in Iowa, though the Florida Governor has bet his candidacy on a second-place finish in the Hawkeye State. Ms. Haley also enjoys the good political fortune that the next big contest is in her home state of South Carolina.Ms. Haley’s supposed opposition to the border wall appears to come from remarks that readers can judge for themselves: “Don’t say you’re just going to build a wall. Because a wall is not going to do it. You’ve got to have commitment of ground troops, equipment, money, all of that to bring it together. Then you’re being serious about tackling illegal immigration.” There’s little difference among the GOP candidates on border security these days.The Trump volleys accusing Ms. Haley of raising taxes are even less persuasive. Ms. Haley as governor supported an increase in the state gas tax—in exchange for lower taxes on income, which is a good trade on the economics. She opposed a gas tax increase on its own.Mr. Trump is polling above 50% in national GOP surveys, and Republicans may decide to gamble on the chaos of a second Trump term. The former President thinks it’s above him to have to contest the primaries and expects a coronation. But voters get a say, Iowa and New Hampshire have been known to surprise, and the 45th president is behaving like that is the verdict he fears.
