Why Can't We Fund Universal Public Goods? Blame the Tax-Dodging Billionaire Nepo Babies | Common Dreams

The wealthiest families in the U.S. are not only squandering their fortunes on frivolous luxuries, but also benefiting from a rigged tax system that allows them to pass down wealth without being properly taxed. How long will we allow the ultra-rich to manipulate the system in their favor, while vital programs for working and middle-class Americans are cut? It's time for Congress to unrig the tax system and ensure fairness for all. #TaxFairness #WealthInequality #BillionaireNepoBabies

But a report released by Americans for Tax Fairness (ATF) on Thursday shows how “billionaire nepo babies” don’t just waste their families’ fortunes. They also benefit from “a rigged system” that allows them to “pass that wealth down over generations without being properly taxed–often without being taxed at all.”

    If we stop beating this corpse, we’ll all just be corpses.

    The end result of their tyranny is blood, and a lot of it. We can either stop it now, or wait for it to get worse. The for profit heathcare industry needs to end.
