America dosn’t have a tax problem. it has a billionaire problem.
Every April, middle-class families write checks to the IRS. Overtime pay, second jobs, side hustles—it all gets taxed. No loopholes, no Cayman Islands, no fancy accountants.
Meanwhile, billionaires report zero income. They borrow against their stocks, park money in shell companies, and use “losses” from yachts or private jets to dodge taxes. Some years, the richest men in America pay a lower tax rate than their secretaries.
And Washington knows it. They write the loopholes. They benefit from the donations. Then they tell you “we can’t afford” universal healthcare, student loan relief, or fixing our roads.
Here’s the truth: America isn’t broke. It’s being robbed—out in the open, in broad daylight, by people so rich they don’t even notice the money they steal.
So maybe the real question isn’t how to raise taxes. It’s how long the middle class will keep playing by rules the rich don’t even follow.
