    Answer my questions about my example.

    You can’t because they prove you wrong.

      I answered it multiple times. You just don’t like the answer.

      What you are really saying is “agree with me”

        You didn’t answer it. You didn’t explain how a business can pay tax on revenue without going bankrupt since the tax rate is significantly higher than almost every companies profit margin.

          I did answer it. I answered it two ways. One was that we could adjust the rates and tier them like we do for people. The other is that we could keep it the same but give the same benefits to people.

          You don’t like either answer so you keep lashing out like a child and throwing a tantrum and threatening me with futile useless gestures.

          Grow up and act like an adult.

          If a business gets to deduct their rent so should I. if a business gets to deduct their utilities so should I. if a business gets to deduct their mortgage so should I. If a business gets to depreciate their equipment and appliances so should I.

          It’s a simple fucking answer but you just don’t like it because you think businesses should be taxed less than you and me.

            Businesses aren’t people. Revenue isn’t personal income.

            You’re comparing apples to oranges.

              I don’t care if businesses are not people. That’s not the topic. The topic is why they get to deduct expenses that I am not allowed to deduct.

                And the reasons why they are all explained in my example that you don’t seem to understand.

                  You said a bunch of things. None of them made any sense.

                  Try again.

                  Why shouldn’t I be allowed to deduct my utilities and rent just like a business does.

                    Because you’re not a business. None of those are costs associated with your job. If you didn’t have your job you would still be paying for those things.

                    How do you not understand this? Do unemployed people not need to eat or pay rent?
