Top 5% now taxed 75%

I dare to dream. Maybe one day.

Honestly, I was talking to my Dad about this the other day. I get why rich people don't want *all* their money taken away, so I was telling him that if I was president (not the same as this, but pretty similar), I'd make it so that wealthy people, after a certain income per year, like 250,000, would have to give away either half of what they made to taxes or half to charity that isn't under their name. Like, if they made 300,000 a year, you'd subtract 250,000 from that and they're making 50,000 over. They'd have to give half of that away. That way they can still get rich, but can't be disgustingly greedy.

I got really disgusted with Caitlyn Jenner (formerly Bruce Jenner) the other day, watching her reality show because she was complaining about having to give 450,000 to Obamacare in taxes every year. And it was like wah, wah! Her net worth is about $100 million right now and she's complaining because she can't buy yet another yacht or an extra vacation home or something. I'm pretty sure she wouldn't have spent that money anyway. She would have hoarded it in her bank account because rich people are like dragons. They collect a bunch of money and sit on it and breathe fire on anyone who gets near it. Forcing rich people not to do this as much as possible helps stimulate the economy because the money goes back into circulation and it just helps people have more money for healthcare.

I am getting dentures soon and it costs 50,000 dollars for the surgeries and everything I need because I'm young and it's complicated. They gave me a 20,000 break, so now it's "only" 30,000, which is close to how much my husband makes a year. Lol. Luckily my Dad is helping me pay for it or I would be out of luck.

For Caitlyn Jenner, that money is pocket change. And yet she's so selfish, she doesn't get how much pocket change can change someone else's life.

I have this weird/stupid addiction to reality shows and all of them are about rich people. Rich people are obsessed with buying one of a kind things that cost a lot of money. Like an Hermes Birkin bag, that a lot of them are obsessed with, you have to be on a waiting list for ten years and pay $20,000 for one purse. It's stupid. It's just a purse.

A lot of celebrities wear outfits that are worth more than any of us make in a month and sometimes to oscars and things their dress will be worth more than we make in a year.

I'd make the worst rich person ever because I'd wear outfits that I bought at target and probably lecture them about how many homeless people they could have fed if they hadn't bought a Birkin bag.

I get spoiling yourself to some degree, but they do this to seem "cool", not because the clothes actually fit better or are more comfortable. In fact, they're probably less comfortable and harder to fit into than normal clothes. That's why they're "cool."

So rich people put a lot of their money into that and cosmetic surgery, sometimes drugs, their mansions, and servants to clean all of it. I remember watching one rich family on a reality show talking about the light bulbs in their house. They have so many rooms that it takes one person a full day's work to change all the light bulbs.
