"Billionaires have had a terrific pandemic." And to sweeten the deal, our rigged tax code lets them get away with paying little or no taxes. (Yes, Elon Musk, I’m looking at you. You too, Jeff Bezos.) It’s long past time for a #WealthTax in America. usatoday.com/story/money/20…
@ewarren Musk lost a lot of money these last few days. Why don’t you ever mention that? Also, who wrote the tax codes?
@ewarren It remains astonishing to me, that when Americans are struggling the most during this pandemic, we have paid the way for the 500 wealthiest to become trillionaires and the rest of the wealthy elite to reap the rewards of our suffering. @CNNBusiness
@ewarren Make sure you gaze over @SpeakerPelosi and the rest of your colleagues as well
@ewarren @SenWarren the man is paying billions in taxes @elonmusk go after $GM.
@ewarren As you probably know, a wealth tax is not constitutional under the 16th Amendment. So, you can't get it through the Senate, Biden hasn't agreed to sign, and if you passed it, it would never be enforced. What's the point?
@ewarren I would say let’s vote on tax law addressing the wealthiest of our country paying their fair share. However, at the rate we are losing voting rights in this country soon we won’t have the option. Politicians bought and paid for by the now trillionaires.
@ewarren So what’s it gonna take to pass the current tax codes/ rates? This has been going on for years and is something that Democrats always mention and bring up yet it never changes.
