Do you have a point?

What

Mostly. But the top earners (with help from the feds) really tilt things.

You know, that's a good question on the face of it. But the issue in this post in particular is not the US. It has nothing to do with Biden, the feds, no effect on Texas, Tennessee, or Virginia.
Ask California and LA and Portland why they tolerate "leaders" who value criminals over them. I don't care what happens in Cali, really. But I'm terrified of it coming to my neck of the woods. Because as an American and a veteran I would not live like that. I would not tolerate a system stacked against the good and innocent to favor the wicked.

Moron? Nah. This was deliberate. Might even be terrorism.

Most of his "wealth" isn't in his pocket or bank account. It's the value of his stock, properties, employees, on and on.
He may not pay income tax, because he doesn't have much income (much like the half of Americans who don't pay federal income tax). But he does pay property tax, employee benefits, and everything he is required to pay taxes on.
The rhetoric behind "unrealized gains" tax and "wealth" tax sound pretty, but it would only ruin the lives of every American who isn't on government assistance, and most of the ones who are.

Finally something we agree on!

That ain't this. This ain't that

He does pay his fair share. If you have evidence of tax fraud that was somehow missed by the IRS, please forward it to them.
And while you're at it, maybe look at who pays what amount of what taxes.

Too true.

I live someplace that isn't California, and I can expect not to be blamed if someone decides to hurt or steal from me.

Holy fucking shit.

Emergency personnel were hospitalized, arson was widespread, the city was under siege. And they tried to kill Kyle. When he did nothing wrong, only doing good that night. Cleaning messes, defending locals and their livelihoods, putting out fires, rendering medical aid to ANYBODY who needed it that he could help.
Just stop, you've already outed yourself as the kind of "man" who would rather watch a city burn and lives destroyed than see someone, anyone, try to do good in the face of murderous mobs running rampant across the entire country.

Did you know that what pissed off the mob is when Kyle stopped them from blowing up a gas station? And that he had been targeted by at least one of his assailants hours before the mess?
If you refuse to educate yourself I can deal, but for over a week now you've steadfastly ignored others trying to educate you.

No, you just described how we DON'T have pure capitalism, funk. The issue is that we have too much government, especially too much government that will throttle equal treatment in favor of forcing everyone to be on the same terrible level.
Ever since Roosevelt sent knee-breakers to deal with tailors who tried to hem pants for 9 cents instead of 10, we've not had capitalism.

Mrs. Claus has been a legendary figure for over 200 years. This ain't about St. Nic, this is about Santa Claus

Fine. You be a security team leader and I'll be madame

In fairness only about 80 percent of the weapons, 75 percent of the military (most of combat arms and support), even more veterans, vast majority of hunters, virtually all of the farmers, over half the tradesmen... on and on and on and on
Yeah, Hollywood would love that kind of fantasy.

We can brainstorm this, figure a way to make it work.

No. We're not doing that.

I'd support legalized brothels with armed guards, metal detectors, and girls having some means to summon guards mid-session. Maybe some audio recorders in rooms to help determine what went bad if something goes bad.
I also nominate myself to be a leader of the security team. I guaran-goddamn-tee we won't have any repeat offenders, and all my guys will recieve some medical training.
