Zuckerberg got rich from capitalism, now he's a communist/socialist

I can't say that I blame her for jumping ship, he must be a terrible and spoiled child.

I can understand taxing more of Z's wealth, he and a few others who made their wealth in the US off of capitalism are pretty outspoken in defense of socialism.

The rich don't pay taxes. They pay capital gains for the most part.
BUT! As a conservative, I don't agree with additional taxation of the rich because it ripples down to the companies they own and run.
Why penalize someone that has became successful?

Jeff Bezos is getting divorced. I don't see anything about zuckerberg getting divorced unless you believe the onion.

zuck can now pay his fair share, whatever that is.

As an added bonus he might a Muslin or a Jew.

 

[jfssms]

once we define him we can tax Zuck as needed. Its that what he whats?

Congress already decided how much and when he - or any of us - must pay "our fair share".

I get that Woody. Zuck can send whatever he has left to US treasury and they will cash his check. The liberal mind isn't so hard to understand IMO.

Yup. It would be interesting if he ever did.

I'd rather he invest it into something and create a bunch of jobs. It would create a steady flow of new tax revenue rather than a single shot that would not and likely could not be repeated.

Not that I'm defending Zuckerberg's beliefs, but doesn't Facebook already employ a bunch of jobs?

Thus, while expressing liberal ideas, he is still practicing capitalism.
