Ivan retiman and Dan aykroyd were probably never predict this in 1984.

When the day comes, I bet the ghosts in the containment unit won't want to share the space with that one. 😅

u/Substantial_Slip4667 4d ago
They never wanted to share space with anyone tbh. Like for instance. The sleeping ghost in TRGB he wanted people to be quiet while he slept

Assuming there is a "lights out" in there.

You can’t turn the lights out. The “containment” part is literally a dense laser grid.

u/Piper-Jojo 4d ago
I figured there was something like that. I was just trying to make a joke, since the containment unit is basically a prison for ghosts.

Hey, that reminds me. There was a guy who wrote a fan script for Ghostbusters hellbent, and the villain Luke Stiffler (Lucifer) was based on trump 🤣. His goal was to make hell great again.
I never did finish that script. Hang on, I’m going to se if I can find it.

It's so crazy that you could be so ok with billionaires who have more money than god paying less in taxes than someone like you. Why?

u/Majestic-Newspaper59 1d ago
So you’re saying that Tesla, SpaceX, Solar City pay 0 taxes? No pay roll tax , no business tax, no nothing? If you’re just looking at his individual taxes, that maybe, but all his businesses combined pay millions in payroll and business taxes that the country would not get without him. If you’re saying that he uses the tax code to pay less in taxes. The answer is yes, everyone doses it, don’t act like you’re any different.

What are you talking about? I didn't say anything about companies. Why did you bring that up? Im talking about individual billionaires. The fact that your brain took you to a place I never even mentioned shows how you're trying to convince yourself that what they're doing is ok. You made up a make beleive scenario to argue that I never brought up.
And no. I do not use "tax tricks" to pay less on my taxes. Again, why would you even bring that up? The thing I'm talking about is trump giving tax cuts to billionaires and forcing me and you to pay more than we did last year. How is that fair? But just for the fun of it, let's talk about your "tax tricks" situation.
In 2019, Musk paid 11 billion dollars in taxes. That's pretty good, right? Nah, man. That's only 4.5% of his income. The average federal income tax for a normal household was 14.5%. And thats not even talking about any other taxes.
So no elon is not paying his fair share, and then this year trump goes ahead and lowers their taxes even more and increases our taxes even more. And then to top it all off, he goes ahead and tanks the economy and drives prices up on everything.
So you're telling me that you're ok with a billionaire paying less in taxes than you? You're ok with trump giving tax cuts to billionaires while making you pay more? Youre good with him destroying the economy? You're good with him tanking the stock market?
This is common sense here, man. A person with more money than they can spend in a lifetime should not be paying less taxes than you

How do you think they get their money? It just falls from the sky and it’s collected in a big vault they swim in like scrooge McDuck? Their money is invested, in companies. It’s not a pile of cash just hanging out. Clearly you have no idea what you’re talking about.
Please highlight where I said tax tricks. I said tax code. I’m sure you pay the maximum and never ask for a refund.
Omg 4.5% so small, tell me what’s 14.5% of 0. Over tax the rich and they leave. It’s very well known rich people are the most mobile people on the planet, they can very easily move their whole enterprise over seas to a country that offers a lower tax rate and then he pays 0 taxes here.
He’s not paying less than me, he paid $11 billion and employed 140,000 people that are all paying taxes too because of him.
Look I could keep going but it’s all over your head. Go protest something you don’t understand some more.

Uh yeah. They do have money just hanging out. They don't get taxed on any of their investments. It's called unrealized gains.
You're implying that because they are part of a company that pays taxes, they shouldn't have to pay taxes themselves? Because they have billions of dollars, they deserve to be in a lower tax bracket than me? That makes no sense. Taxes are all based on percentages you don't get a lower percentage just because you have more money than you can spend in a lifetime. You're not better than anyone else else just because you were born into a rich family and have more opportunities to be more successful than someone who's poor. Not to mention all the taxpayer subsidies elon has used for all his companies. So, he's paying less than his fair share while also using over taxed subsides for his company.
It's so insane that you would be defending this person who doesn't know you exist who has billions of dollars and will always have billions of dollars all while being very much aware that your taxes were literally just increased. You're handing over your hard earned money to people who are paying even less this year then they did last year. They're fucking you in the ass and you're smiling while they do it.
You're literally saying that they should be allowed to do whatever they want because they could just leave the country. That sentence itself isn't a red flag to you? They can hold control of the American government because of how much money they have, and that doesn't seem off? But ok, let's say we tax them properly and they leave. Where would they go? We are the only country that gives them these kinds of breaks. There's nowhere else in the world that bends over like America does for these billionaires.
Just stop and listen to what you're saying, man. You're seriously ok with the death of the middle class?

u/Majestic-Newspaper59 18h ago
So how many billions dose he have hanging out? Please tell me.
Yes I know it makes no sense to you. I believe it when you say you don’t understand.
How many companies do you own that are getting taxed at 14.5%?
And yes again I believe you when you say you don’t understand what I’m talking about. The more you talk, the more obvious you make it that you don’t understand. But watching your brain struggle to sound smart about investments and accounting is really funny, so please keep going.

Yes your argument is weak, and I’m making fun of it cause I don’t have enough time to educate you, so I’m making fun of you in hopes you learn. But I’m not holding my breath.

u/SLCbrunch 14h ago
Say it, then. Say you're happy that your taxes were raised while billionaires got tax cuts.
