“He pays taxes according to the tax code”
A tax code that has been continuously altered to tax the rich less and less. A change that has happened basically every year since Regan was president.
Yes he pays the taxes he’s “supposed to” legally. But he still pays less proportionately than middle class Americans.
It’s not about being ignorant, the comment you’re replying to is saying “maybe we should change the tax code so the richest Americans don’t get away with effectively a 1% income tax rate while middle class Americans have to pay an average of 25% income tax”
But ya know, that’s a bit wordy
