A hypothetical question: If you asked the employees at Google if they would prefer that Larry Page and Sergey Brin pay 0 taxes for the rest of their life OR we shut down Google permanently what would be their answer?
False dichotomy.
Why don’t you ask those same employees if they think its fair that Larry & Sergey pay a smaller percentage of their yearly earnings in taxes than their salaried employees?
Btw, both Bill Gates and Warren Buffet have both stated that they feel they are not paying their fair share of taxes relative to their employees.
