My math isn't perfect. I'm in the hospital and wrote that in an ungodly hour.
My point flat out is that YES often time the wealthy pay less in percentage tax than they are required. But one extremely wealthy person's taxes might equal one hundred average workers tax bill. Yet that wealthy millionaire typically contributes employment, purchases, Co tributions, etc to a community as well as more taxes..
And the wealthy are also lobbyist for politicians that create laws that protects their wealth, which they do by cutting social programs that sustains lower and impoverished class of people.
The wealthy are also responsible for wars, slavery, propaganda, and intentional actrocities to benefit their pockets at the expense of the lower class.
The wealthy can also place most of the money in offshore accounts and investments that also protects them from paying a less tax rate as the average citizen.
Pretty much, you have to be ok with people being manipulated, tricked, bamboozled, or/killed a long as the flow of income is none stop.
The creators of Facebook don’t even use that shit, yet they ain’t going to stop implementing stuff on their platforms to increase their pay. Even though they know their platform have been used to alter elections, influence minds, live stream deaths, create different levels of anxieties, spread false information and so forth. I’m sure it does good as well, but that really depends on which side you’re on.
