@leftisbestpolitics: CEO Threatens to STOP Working Over Tax The Rich Debate 😳 In this viral debate, a CEO claims he would stop working and furlough employees if income above $2 million was taxed at 70%. Nick Powers fires back, arguing that CEOs use fear tactics to scare Americans away from taxing the wealthy, saying shareholders would never tolerate a company shutting down just because executives made less money. Now the internet is divided over wealth, taxes, corporate power, and whether the rich are paying their fair share. #TaxTheRich #CEO #Economy #NickPowers #Politics #WealthGap #Billionaires #USPolitics #EconomicDebate #ViralPolitics #NewsShorts #news #shorts #leftisbest #politics

So he's fine with limiting his income to 2 million a year?

if you furlough your employees every year, soon no one will want to work for you, then your business fails.

if the CEO's salary rises, the wages for everyone should rise as well.

I don’t think they should pay 70% over 2 million, I think they should pay 90%

He’s admitting he only needs 2 million a year to relax and play golf all day so the taxes r justified

No you won't, If you did your competitor will take over your market share and you don't want that.

So he agrees that $2 million is plenty and we shouldn’t need BILLIONAIRES?

Truth is, he’d move to a different tax jurisdiction. Just look at what’s happening in New York.

you honestly expect me to believe a CEO would rather stop making money than make 30c on the dollar.

All I heard is he can survive off ok 2 million or less. So then yes he should be taxed 70% above that lol

If his business can run for months without him being there, he probably won't return to a job.

Stockholders won’t be happy with 30cent on the dollar, not worth the stress! Or just move the company to another country.
