- karatestomp 7y agoIt absolutely is. See also: the "death tax" in the US. I 100% guarantee you that the number of people who think they're subject to it exceed the number who are by at the very least 10x.
- Sohcahtoa82 7y agoAbsolutely. Case in point, I present to you Charlie Kirk, founder and president of Turning Point USA: https://twitter.com/charliekirk11/status/1231005642413858816 https://twitter.com/charliekirk11/status/1231005642413858816 "Facts: Bernie wants a $15 minimum wage That would mean a gross salary of $31,200 for a 40 hr. work week But he wants to tax anyone making above $29,000 a year 52% That would make gross salary $14,976—$288/week $288 divided by a 40 hour work week—$7.20/hour Socialism Sucks."
