Today’s Tax Day. If you’ve paid your taxes, you’re paying more federal income taxes than Nike, FedEx, and dozens of other major corporations did last year.
It’s time to tax the rich. It’s time to tax corporations. It’s time to put an end to our rigged system.
Your Tax Day reminder that the IRS has failed to collect more than $2.4 billion in unpaid taxes from millionaires.
They were only able to recoup about 39% of the $4 billion+ super-rich taxpayers owe in unpaid taxes.
Quite literally, tax the rich.
Happy (delayed) tax day!
Reminder that billionaires pay less and less tax, that opinion polls show the public is unhappy with this situation, and that concrete solutions exist to address it https://t.co/5N2GL8eZih
Happy tax day America! Take solace in knowing that while the government kicked 10s of millions out of work, no government employee missed a paycheck! Also, the wars and police state were able to continue. All thanks to you being forced to pay for it!
It’s Tax Day (sort of)! Here’s a reminder that the wealthy haven’t paid their fair share in many decades. And it’s only been getting worse. #chartman

8 years ago today. Never forget that for 3 days before suspects were announced the media tried to blame the marathon bombing on the Tea Party because April 15 was tax day as well as Patriots Day in Boston https://t.co/UbuTL7YbiW
Today is #Tax Day. But calling this “tax day” is misleading.
The income tax is LESS THAN HALF of what most of us pay the government.

Every year on Tax Day I get angry thinking about the fact that there are advanced social democracies where the government does your taxes for you for free--you get a *text message*, you reply "YES" and that's that--but in the USA TurboTax lobbyists won't let us have nice things.
They made it so easy to file taxes!
I remember when you had to get a tax book, fill it out, collect supporting documents, make copies, sign the original, go to the post office & mail it. The line would be long AF on tax day! Thank God we figured out a better way!
Now do voting.
