You’re overburdening the concept of a loophole. There’s no difference between “loopholes” and various tax credits more modest earners take. It is 100% true the tax code is full of a variety of policies that favor certain groups. If you’re married or have kids you pay less taxes. Is that fair? Up to your opinion. …

1. Yes, that is their policy. They believe it for reasons you disagree with but there’s no debating that fact

You’re the third person to suggest that I’m angry. Can you point to the post I’ve made that is anger - other than at those that are just here to troll? I’m going to choose to engage you on this just because you happen to be the latest one to say it. Please read my posts, and tell me if, even if you disagree with my…

Worthwhile comment

I’m glad that you find grammar errors to mean that the underlying point isn’t something worthwhile to discuss. Maybe that’s how you choose to operate your life, and that’s fine. I try to be reasonable.

List the ones that you take issue with and we’ll discuss them. And I resent the idea that you think I’m upset. Have any of my comments taken a negative tone except towards those just flat insulting me?

I hope you’re not an American. Because if that’s your policy towards people having a conversation about their political views you belong in North Korea.

Did I say that? No. But if you want my opinion on that I think it’s because he has one of the most complicated tax returns out there. A significant number of billionaires made their money via one company. They may have various side investments that don’t raise to the level of hundreds of millions of dollars of…

The fact that you think that suggesting someone lives in Idaho is an insult makes you the worst kind of liberal

Ok

Article II, Section I of the Constitution. Every single Presidential candidate inherently proves it. There is no doubt where Trump or Hillary were born. There was reasonable enough doubt about Obama so it must be proven. The fact that you don’t see most candidates standing on tv holding birth certificates to justify…

Did I comment on how well or poorly he did?

I’ve been, but mostly prior to the time the newly-formed Gawker Media union thought they have the right to get pissy about not being treated as journalists. Your comment is a fun sound bite type comment but if you’re a long time reader of the site you know very well the tone has changed and that this kind of post is…

Both of these things are true, although I would have to guess that given he’s sole owner of most of these things most of the income trickles to him. But to the extent it’s shielded in corporations that’s even more reason the attack on his comments are ill-founded. How many people on this site use Apple devices? …

I’m not a tax lawyer either so I can’t comment. But his/her comment is accusing Trump of being a criminal. It’s possible that’s the case but if he’s been audited every year, and he’s not in jail, it would seem otherwise. I trust in the IRS auditing process to confirm to us he’s not criminally dodging taxes.

Then you’re a socialist. And that’s fine. You should vote for candidates that hold your view. But you’re advocating for something that is not the law of the land that should be done voluntarily for no reason. And I would argue that, you’re thinking about making $694 million as if it were a windfall - lottery winnings…

See? You’re also capable of wit, like me. And as such I know that you know what my turn of phrase was stating, because you’re intelligent. So if you want to participate in this discussion we’re having you can mock my choice of words or you can discuss policy.

Are you a tax lawyer?

Ok. Good. That’s your personal view of tax policy and it’s a very fair one. It is not the tax policy mandated by current law. You should vote for candidates you believe will make it law. I happen to disagree. But now that we’ve decided that you have to state if you believe Trump is in the wrong for not voluntarily…

And I’m also sorry you can’t hold discourse because you want to pretend like you don’t get my meaning and want to actually dismiss my comments instead of continuing the discussion. That’s cowardice.
