I guess to be political correct we should have an anti Trump thread. He called an overweight beauty queen miss piggy and he should go to jail for that remark. Because nobody in their right mind would ever call a person who is overweight fat. He did not show his income tax. So he must be doing illegal things. What do you learn from a person’s income tax that they did not pay anything well that would put every millionaire in North America in jail? He called illegal immigrates; illegal immigrants he should be thrown in jail for his honesty you just don’t say those things. He is backing the police and the police shoot people we should set up a hotline so we can call the drug pushers and crook if we need help. He is against the import of undocumented immigrants this is a sure sign of racists. If you do not know who they are how can that be racist when they do not claim a racist only a realign. These are a few things that Trump is not talking about. Trump has not gone after the corporations that are slowly taking control of the US and the world. Trump has not gone after the banking cabal which is strangling the US and the world. Trump has not gone after the UN who mandates laws over countries and has no elected members in it no over site and very little control. Trump says nothing about the military bases in friendly countries all around the world as the infrastructure of the US disintegrates Trump watches as money is given to other countries as military hard ware and other thing and the roads and bridges in the US are ready to fall down.
Its a great pity that all wealthy men manage to avoid paying tax, but the hard labour workers could not possibly do so and of course contribute to the country in which they live Exactly the same goes on over here - no wonder they're bloomin rich !
In the olden days when the Philippine society was old fashioned, having more than 1 wife is considered a minus point for a political candidate. The main reason was that having more than 1 wife (simultaneous or not) means a mismanagement of his marital life and it can reflect his savvy when it comes to managing the country. With Donald Trump having 2 divorces (correct me if I'm wrong) then that would definitely shave his numbers in the polls. But Trump is fortunate that he is not in our country and that the society now is already permissive because our own president has 2 wives (he is separated from his first wife and is now living with his second wife with whom she has a daughter).
Trump has came to a new low he will not release his income tax but the opposition got his tax returns from 1995 showing that he used the lowest form of getting out of paying tax. He used the tax laws to get out of paying this is going too far. He should be forced to write a check tomorrow for 0 dollars and get it to the tax office. I think right now the tax people are going over every income tax he ever put in for something they can discredit him with. I have no use for a man who will not say what he should even in a debate no matter what is asked he could say Oh that reminds me of, and then say what you want. Or when asked about something for example Trump University just say gad you brought that up because there is even a much bigger scam call Laureate Education Trump you are an idiot playing their games. Don’t answer their questions just tell them what you came there to say.
I don't understand why people are upset about a American Billionaire that paid no Income Taxes for 18 years because he tooCk full advantage of existing Tax Laws that allow for carrying losses forward for up to 20 years. On a much smaller scale I have done this myself. It is not illegal, and in fact pretty damn stupid if you don't take advantage of that provision in the Tax Code. Change the Tax regulations if you think that's wrong but don't jump on people that follow the law. There is a big difference between TAX AVOIDENCE & TAX EVASION.
If he had my money invested and didn't take advantage of the existing tax laws to keep me solvent, I would be severely pi$$ed. I agree that the tax laws should be changed. Who better to change them than someone who knows how they work?
Yes, on the one hand they are saying that they assume that he had not paid taxes because, under the tax code, he didn't owe taxes. But on the other hand, they suggest the hasn't paid his taxes. If he owes taxes that he didn't pay, you can be sure that the IRS would be dealing with it. If he doesn't owe any taxes, then what's the problem? How many of us routinely pay more taxes than we have to? When you do your taxes in April, do you add a tip?
There are so many negatives against Trump, I don't even want to list them. I would be here all day. Suffice it to say, I am not a fan, and this latest tax debacle is just another thing. I would never vote for someone who was so disrespectful and contemptous in the first place. I hope he falls flat on his face, and faces rack and ruin. In my mind he deserves it.
I know getting out of paying tax is for business people. I wish I had to pay 100 million dollars a year I would be very happy to do it.
When you pay your taxes, do you routinely add forty percent as a tip or do you, like Trump, pay only what you owe?
Obviously the tax code needs to be changed if billionaires pay zero! Then he hypocritically says other people need to pay their taxes. uhhh OK! Lets lead from the top down! The guy is a joke in so many ways. I just don't know what we did to deserve these clowns running for the presidency. People are just too apathetic about politics in general, then alll they want to do is get mad when things don't go their way.
Actually, the article didn't say he paid zero taxes. It simply said that he was eligible to take these deductions. Any subsequent income would have reduced the amount that he could deduct. If he is following the tax code, then he is paying his taxes. He didn't write the tax code. He is simply obeying the law, and a particular part of the code that was enacted while Hillary's husband was in office, I believe, and which Hillary has taken advantage of. By the way, the New York Times didn't pay any taxes in 2014. Besides, these were his business taxes and for him to pay more than he owed would not only be crazy, and bad for business, but he'd be cheating his investors. Again, do you pay more taxes than you are obligated to pay?
Yea - they all take advantage it seems Whoever you vote in it will be the same old story as it is over here - not just politicians of course We are demanding now that the rich pay their fair share as 'we' have had such austerity measures thrown at us
