Federal Income Tax - 37%
Medicare Tax - 3.8%

Total - 40.8%

Show me a link where Bezos is paying 40%.  Billionaires have so many tricks and loopholes to hide money. Bill Gates admitted his average annual tax rate is 10.7%  sometimes higher, sometimes lower.


However, ProPublica pointed out that his “true tax rate” for the five-year period between 2014 and 2018 is much lower than the national average household at 3.27 percent. How does Musk avoid paying taxes? The answer is that he borrows money from Tesla without taking a salary from his own company.Jun 13, 2021

Elon Musk explains his extremely low tax rate - The Hill


Story at a glance:

Elon Musk paid less than $70,000 in federal income taxes between 2015 and 2017, and he did not pay anything in 2018, according to recent reports.
He did pay his taxes in 2016 by exercising more than $1 billion in stock options.
He lives off loans made from his stock options, meaning he doesn’t take a salary from his company.

   In 2028 the Trumpers will try and shove these 2 idiots down our throat, if we're still around by then.

He makes assertions and then dances around the questions in response to those assertions without addressing them.

Gee, that is EXACTLY what liberals do.

How in the dickens are the clueless to be educated as to how the real world works if we don't tell them? And it better happen soon, before they completely outnumber us.

They already outnumber us. The city dwellers are regulating more and more farm and ranch land as they see fit. Emotions govern now.

The special bond between The Queen and the Countess of Wessex
Good Housekeeping/UK, Sep 2022



In the last week, Sophie, The Countess of Wessex, has been called Queen Elizabeth’s "second daughter"; and indeed, the depth of her clearly felt grief has been striking. According to royal expert Jennie Bond, who knew her before she married The Queen’s youngest son Prince Edward, the relationship between mother and daughter-in-law became stronger and stronger as the years passed.

“They genuinely liked one another, and they spent a lot of time together,” says Bond, who was the BBC’s royal correspondent for 14 years, and who has been reporting on The Royal Family for three decades. “They seemed to very much enjoy one another’s company. I think it was very much a two-way relationship. It wasn’t just about an adoration of the queen by Sophie; it was a mutual friendship.”
