3% more is a heavy tax burden?

463

Year after year after year . . . yes.

The 3% goal is to re-distribute his weath to other via federal government.

Now can you tell me what the elephant trying to hide behind the lamp in the corner of the room is in all this? And who it will hurt?

If you only have the money on “paper” and try to convert it to actual cash . . . yes it is.

Again . . . do you think Musk has 6 billion in cash just laying around not doing anything at any given time. Rembmer IRS wants cold hard cash for tax payments.

You do know that Space X got about $150 million for a DoD contract?

So … that is like Billion dollars in Grade A US Government largess.

Boy… that 3% is going to really hurt the guy.

3% is not going to ruin a single billionaire

468

The argument is bordering on insane

469

Is the DoD getting something for that $150 million? And what does that have to do with Musk tax liability that he will need to pay?

Your still not answering the question. Do you think Musk has 6 BILLION in cash to pay the tax bill?

How about after 10 to 15 years?

No, he will still be making an obscene amount of money

You mean the dude who was able to get Tesla off the ground because of a $460 Million low interest US Government loan making a product that comes with all sorts of subsidies for the customers?

The guy whose wealth was built because of US Government Largess might have to … gasp… pay an additional tax?

Heavens forbid.

How much salary does Musk take?

Why punish him by making him sell the companies he owns? And again, who will buy them knowing that with ownership comes a tax burden on you personally?

477

Remember when you complained about the 3 trillion dollar relief package last year? Yeah me neither

His personal net worth (not Tesla’s net worth) increased 44% in one year. He can afford the 3% hit no matter how you try to frame it

479

You’ve gone off track again. Guessing it’s because you can’t or won’t answer the questioons.

Do you think Musk has 6 billion cash just laying around?
If it came down to it, who would buy companies worth billions knowing the tax liability that comes with it?

Stay focused.

Paying an additional tax that supports the funding of the Government that he has benefited greatly from doesn’t seem like too big of an ask for most people.

How muh did his “Wealth” drop in January when the price of Tesla stock dropped from $850 per share to closing this week at $559 share?
