@kellycolling1@TheRabbitHole They do all the time. The president is just so adamant to continue doing it and he controls the justice department so he keeps getting away with it.
@hdemott3@TheRabbitHole The facts are that you can't compare percentage of people to percentage of dollars, you have to compare percentage of dollars to percentage of dollars. This graph shows why the original is so intentionally misleading.

@EliasKeaneBooks@TheRabbitHole Sales tax harms the poor quite a bit more than the rich, and the rich sit on their wealth and don't spend it. So we'd be collecting twice as much from poor people (which would be very little) and less from rich people, so it'd be less overall.
@TheRabbitHole You can't compare percentage of people to percentage of dollars, you have to compare percentage of dollars to percentage of dollars. Are you lying intentionally or do you just not know better?
@gentrywgevers You need an 8th grade math class, stat. This is a graph in a textbook that is used to show how data can be presented in a misleading way. You can't compare percentage of people to percentage of dollars, you have to compare percentage of dollars to percentage of dollars.
@MooSEisloose00@DouglasChr90298@dailydirtnap Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning created Tesla. Elon sued to be called a founder. He did not create it.
Peter Thiel created Paypal.
Elon joined Paypal and was then kicked out for being too much of a creep.
Sorry that the facts are so emotionally triggering for you.
@zimuzor16@My_name_is_RonH A bit more.
A million dollars a day for 2700 years almost gets you to a trillion.
A world where that can exist when 25% of people don't have clean drinking water is a broken world.
@ChristianB84455@Jonny_Bravo1983@DouglasChr90298@dailydirtnap He has never been on time for anything. Whatever misinformed opinions you have on whether or not the money is well spent, I was pointing out that Elon receives more than he pays in direct response to someone that claimed otherwise.
@AussieLeeH@dailydirtnap the man that cut so much aid that hundreds of thousands of people died, all while cutting programs that would regulate him? the man with more labor violations than children?
