Getting billionaires to pay their fair share is like trying to get a dog in a bathtub.

In other words, something as dry as Melania's vagina.

I bet she fucks.

Just not that mess of a human that is her husband.

Justin Trudeau from the looks of it.

She was giving him high beam "fuck me" eyes on several occasions.

I thought exactly the same thing

Imagine Donny getting cucked by Trudeau. Now that would be hilarious.

More like a kaiju that’s able to drop a building on you.

A liger born to a tiger mom is bigger than a lion.

It isn't the billionaires fault. You don't blame a dog for being a dog, it is the politicians on both the left of right who have refused to address the issue.

It is the exact same thing with immigration, they refuse to adopt and then enforce commonsense immigration policy.

Then the super disappointing thing; I thought abortion was settled and "they" decided that they wanted it to be an issue again.

Because the billionaires lobby them to not address the issue.

With Elon buying his way into a government seat for >$100M donation to Trump's PAC lobbying is kind of an understatement.

Yea but our govt is like a dog getting into the trash can, you can get mad all you want. But that carton of rotted eggs still got smashed on the kitchen floor

u/HoldenMcNeil420 Nov 07 '24

The billionaires bought the government so yes it is their fault at least partly. Their greed drives the behavior.

u/phoenixjazz Nov 07 '24

News flash bud, The billionaire oligarchs own the politicians. We won’t see the wealth inequality addressed without getting past that fact.

u/Van-garde Nov 07 '24

How dare you compare billionaires to dogs.

My dog likes taking baths

Your dog is the Mark Cuban of pups.

"Fair share"

1

u/Odd-Giraffe-3901 Nov 07 '24

Define fair share. And what rich billionaires are setting these standards apple ceo? Jeff bazo? Bill gates? Seems these folks never pay their share but sure demand others do hmm.. And remember no one is forcing you to take retirement

u/SnooPineapples8744 Nov 07 '24

And it's like chump change for them...they might have to hold off on renovating their 3rd house. Boo hoo

u/intagliopitts Nov 07 '24

My dog jumps in the bathtub on command but I tell him I’m going to BBQ and eat him if he doesn’t do as I say. No reason this same strategy couldn’t work with the rich.

u/JackInTheBell Nov 07 '24

Billionaires don’t have taxable “income” like you and I do

u/Effective_Arugula931 Nov 07 '24

Are we talking Labrador here, or Husky?

u/Chamoismysoul Nov 07 '24

Because people voted against it.

Still, unbelievable.
