Let's shake it up a bit. We never resolved the definition of a 'living wage' or, my favorite, paying 'Fair Share' of taxes. Remember Biden leaning over (holding on to!) a podium and creepiliy whispering...'pay your fair shaaaaaarre..." ?
Link is how he tried to get out of paying taxes...and it worked!!! That ole sly fox Biden. He's rich! Can afford lawyers to F''' all you fellers who need government monetary support and free abortions, etc. Keeps his money, while we wonder why people who say we should pay fair share don't just send in more money to the government.
Was it OK for him to avoid taxes? I do not expect any answer. Move on to discuss SCOTUS slam dunk decision.

@averagejoe1 saidI shall not today attempt further to define fair share, but I know it when I see it!
Accolade appreciated. Just keeping it interesting,,,,and not a word about Trump!
So, did we define fair share?
@athousandyoung saidYou have a point, it really is impossible to be defined in a free society. So why did Biden keep saying it? Is he daft? Don't answer that question.

@averagejoe1 saidThere is no such thing as a fair share if you are attempting to equalize outcomes, if you are going to create something fair then it has to be a level playing field when it comes to opportunities nothing more or nothingness.

Do billionaires pay their fair share?
Billionaires in the U.S. pay a smaller tax rate than most teachers and retail workers.
U.S. billionaires are 46 percent, or $1.6 trillion, richer than they were in 2020.
According to a 2021 White House study, the wealthiest 400 billionaire families in the U.S. paid an average federal individual tax rate of just 8.2 percent. For comparison, the average American taxpayer in the same year paid 13 percent.

Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Warren Buffett pay little in income tax compared to their massive wealth — sometimes, even nothing.
In 2007, Jeff Bezos, then a multibillionaire and now the world’s richest man, did not pay a penny in federal income taxes. He achieved the feat again in 2011. In 2018, Tesla founder Elon Musk, the (then) second-richest person in the world, also paid no federal income taxes.

The small amount of federal income taxes President Trump paid in both 2016 and 2017 — just $750 each year — has become the focus of much attention since it was revealed in a New York Times investigation.

I answered it for them, a real heartfelt answer, nothing cute, or gliblike, and they just stopped writing.
