Biden budget seeks minimum tax on households worth $100mThe introduction of the minimum tax on the wealthiest Americans would represent a significant reorienting of the tax code. It would apply to the top 0.01% of households with half of the expected revenue coming from households worth $1 billion or more. So all the politicians will see this tax after giving them self a raise? allpoliticiansarecrooks wakeup So the price of goods goes up or there are layoffs. So we get taxed in the form of price hikes. It's really not that hard to grasp. It's economics 101. Why a minimum? They should pay their fair share also! It has always been the working class that has supported these billionaires! Time for a change because the working class can't take anymore!😠
