Aren't the working class in America paying more in % then those making over 10 million a year ?

[obliviouscandybar]

They aren't paying taxes so let them leave.

[GingerDavis-fm]

They made their money here with US resources n laborers, they have to pay taxes.

[staticshockco]

At this point, that doesn't sound like a bad outcome...

[underconstructionhuman]

Great let them all leave. The rest of us will have a democratic republic that works for the rest of us! Bye, bye Felicia.

[johnjohnson]

Uh... leaving the country doesn't exempt you from paying taxes.

[s-nooze]

They won't leave. Their families, businesses, and assets are here. All the things that the wealth comes from are here.

[Ifyewonleenew]

So just wreck the lives of the middle class and poor huh 🤔?

[jasminelindros]

Wealthy people will leave? Really? Promise?

All American citizens file US income tax returns, regardless of location on the globe, and renouncing your citizenship to avoid taxes is explicitly illegal.

[andersriksson]

Most rich won't leave. The are born, raised and rooted with families, friends and network here like most. They'll still be millionaires or billionaries just less of it...

[BumBBell]

He’s not looking out for the working class, just just his rich buddies

[kathrynmurphy]

But tax the poor, fire them from their jobs then cut thier insurance and garnish their wages for student loans. Who the F voted for this creature?

[JamesJohnson-rhqw]

They can take the hit more than the poor and middle class.

[UnmannedExplorations]

This is the dumbest argument I’ve ever seen. Where are they going to go where they can produce the same kind of revenue and be taxed less? Nowhere….

[benjohnson]

So leave‼️If you don't want to pay your "fair" share, then take a hike, who needs ya?‼️🫡🇺🇲

[harmonyacres]

How can anyone think this guy is smart?

[DedraAmbroseandSnow]

[MartinReiter]

Elon should be the first to leave. Followed by Thiel, Bezos, Zuckerberg.
