I saw this video a few days ago. It outlines how wealthy people use charities to avoid taxation and keep their money while looking like good people.

It is insane how many people in America do this too. We often hear "tax the rich" but these are the rich that never pay their taxes. Instead, it is targeted at people who earn six figures to a few million while these people continue to coast by hardly paying a dime.

It's a sad thing that's been happening for years. It never started today and they have found a way to perfect it and even cover their tracks well that it's going to be very difficult to find any fault in what they do. We live in the world where the rich keeps getting richer at the expense of the poor or average earners.

Taxes need to be redone in America. No one earning under 80k should be taxed. from 90k to 500k, it should only be 7%. 501k to 1 mil can be 14%. 1 mil to 5 mil can be 21%. 5 mil to 10 mil 28%... and so on. What this would do is FORCE the government to go after the super-rich for taxation if they want taxes to run the country instead of milking people who are barely getting by.

If you earn 100k per year, after taxes in most states... You are only getting 68k. What kind of horseshit is that!?
