The top 1% are paying a bigger % of taxes now, but it's not showing what % they earned before. I looked up a single data point, 1980, and the top 1% earned 10% of income then, so the ratio was 19%/10% = 1.9. Now it's 45.8%/26.3% = 1.7. I.E. things have become more favorable for the top 1% over time. What percentage of the 99% don't pay taxes because they don't make the income threshold? Isn't it significant number? I wonder what the math would be between the top 1% and people who actually make enough to have a tax bill. This website says like 40%! https://www.taxpolicycenter.org/taxvox/tpc-number-those-who-dont-pay-federal-income-tax-drops-pre-pandemic-levels 1 1 Link to comment

Who knew failing to pass border and national security legislation would be a loser at the polls? The Democrats over performed again by 7 points.

Archy1221 Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Maybe not the best choice to prosecute Trump. Doesn’t chNge any facts against him, but this type of stuff ends up helping him I would guess 2 Link to comment

I have cash in my house. I don’t know for sure if it came from a Christmas card or December's paycheck. I know I didn’t steal it. Are folks really this desperate to make this messy? Embarrassing… 1 1 Link to comment

I have some in my wallet and I used to keep some in a box, like basically an adult piggy bank. I would put all my dollar bills in it and then after a year I would go put it in my savings account (because I live like a f#&%ing immigrant), it would be a few hundo a year. As far as her sex life? Well, I don't give a f#&% about who anyone f#&%s or tries to f#&%, I don't care if they cheat, if they are monogamous (lame), if they are married or single. I don't care who they bang or don't bang. 1 Link to comment
