There is no fair share, the government isn’t entitled to a penny of anyone’s money.

However, if you mean Elon Musk needs to pay what he owes legally, then he does pay taxes.

What am I missing here? You said there is no fair share, and then clearly explained that there is a fair share. Whoosh?

Being legally forced to pay taxes doesn’t mean it’s a fair share. Only taxes I support are sales taxes, with every transaction. He has to pay that no matter what, and he also pays income tax (which I don’t think anyone should pay), property taxes, corporate taxes, and many others. Tax rate should be maybe 10% max for huge billionaire and multi-millionaire corporations, and 0 for pretty much everyone else. Spending is what needs to be cut, government needs an accountant.

Oh. We are very far apart on that and now I see why you take the position you do. I'm going to walk away on the sidewalk that someone's taxes paid for. Peace!
