We need taxes for all - also the super-rich.

"Tax the rich" is an official EU petition. The EU Parliament has to deal with it when successful.

7 EU countries must reach the quorum. And in total 1M Votes are needed. Check yours in the chart and share, cross post etc.!

The petition calls for the introduction of a wealth tax on very large fortunes. Sign the petition here

Depardieu is a wanker who was practicing tax evasion long before he left.

We don't need useless piles of garbage like him.

You do want his money tho - hence the attempt of 75% tax rate. But you aren't getting any of his income, he doesn't pay his taxes in france anymore.

It's ok, these faux french cunts can fuck off to another country. Makes room for people who actually care about the country.

We weren't getting any of this fraudster's money anyway.

If anything he cost us more money than anything in fake grants.

So you have a horrible legal system, and he's great scapegoat to divert attention from fraud underneath? Am I missing something?

Your brain, for sure.
