The IRS is the largest gang of thieves!

in photography •  6 years ago  (edited)

There have been five major tax cuts since Ronald Reagan wrecked the economy in 1981. Each one has damaged the plight of regular people and helped the plutocrats gain greater percentages of the pie -- percentages that have been used for an orgy of mergers and consolidations that use power and leverage over average workers to lower real incomes.

That was the intent and tax cut regimes have played out exactly like that ever since. Specifically, the productivity of workers has more than doubled since that time, but wages have moved up only slightly. That wage-productivity differential translates directly into the fact that the top one percent more than doubled their share of wealth since 1980.

A better shirt idea might be "Tax the Rich!"

Theft is theft even if it targets those you envy. I'm broke, but robbing a rich person won't solve that.
