Stuart Varney says Biden's billionaire tax proposal 'legalized theft'



FOX Business host Stuart Varney argues Democrats are “lining up their strategy” for the midterms as the president proposes billionaire tax in budget.

STUART VARNEY:  I’d like to label the billionaire tax for what it is: legalized theft. I have no doubt it will be popular: billionaires don’t get much sympathy: after all, they don’t need all that money, do they?

What the socialists are doing is simply seizing somebody else’s money.

  1. Joe is destroying everything
    it is not his fault, it is the fault of 80 something millions of delusional folks who voted for him……
    and they…do not realize it still and probably never will…..
    gosh !

  2. What the hell you are talking about. When this put Sanctions on different countries what do you think they are doing. I guess you will gave a heart attack when HR 40 get passed for reparation for slavery.

  3. Really? this guy is calling billionaire tax legalized theft? When billionaires stole that money off the backs of the working class to begin with. While one person has enough wealth to end poverty, and families in the US can't afford rent and people go hungry, and they are gonna complain when they finally have to pay their fair share, what a joke this guy is.

  4. We don't have to put up with this for another three years. There is the 25th admendment.

  5. Totally agree with the headline!

  6. POWW is a huge buy Bros. 29 Mar 22 Semper Fi

  7. I thick its funny
    Billionaires put him in office
    They wanted TRUMP GONE
    NOW THEY GOT THIS IDIOT
    VERY FUNNY

  8. oh Varney you could say that about all taxes. Stuart was told to say this by his billionaire boss. That makes Varney opinion mute.

  9. Nice to see beer can Joe defending millionaires.😂 how’s that trickle down economics working out

  10. Voting for Biden is like hiring Edward Scissorhands to give you a rectal exam.

  11. basic Commie redistribution of wealth. & fox wasted no time in signing off on this clumsily-faked 'election' of a senile, hair-sniffing marxist. and also on the rigged state 'elections.'

  12. Who is rich … Biden family PAY YOUR FAIR SHARE… Pelosi Family PAY YOUR FAIR SHARE…Schumer Family PAY YOUR FAIR SHARE..Sanders Family PAY YOUR FAIR SHARE.. Waters Family PAY YOUR FAIR SHARE.. 🤑

  13. This is going to hit everyone.

  14. Biden is a thief. Just ask the Afghans.

  15. Of course. Sounds just like the Soviet revolution in 1918. It's been a while since I watched Dr. Zhivago. How did that turn out again?

  16. This is what chases Companies and job's out of the US 😣

  17. biden is bernie saunders puppet. Bernie will not do anything to offend his communist buddy putin. saunders sets communist policy for this country

  18. How the fk is that theft. Them rich mfk's don't want to pay the 15 dollar minimum wage. The way big businesses not paying their fair share. That's going to make mfk's start busting heads.

  19. This is called negotiating a compromise.
    The Leftist elites include the psychotically crazy things in the bill knowing full well it's ridiculous, and they will 'compromise' by letting it be removed.
    Oh – I nearly forgot to mention, it usually works just fine and the GOP falls for it time and again.

  20. You think they'll stop with the rich…think again

  21. A lot of the Billionaires were big Democrat supporters. Bet they will not pay one cent extra.

  22. 50 percent tax on every polit. that put biden in office….this 0-12 record lose,lose,lose,lose everyday

  23. How much you want to bet Congress is going to be exempt from these Taxes

  24. Im just a o poor man so i guess im safe

  25. BAD GOVERNMENT POLICY…
    SOCIALISM FAILS IN AMERICA 🇺🇸.

  26. These people running the scam of the century need to be wiped from the face of the earth. Anyone who destroys life has no business living life

  27. I would prefer a Department that People give money during tax time to keep the less fortunate Americans safe, stable, and healthy than paying high taxes. We have now learned that taxes is a crime because taxes are based on overcharging one class. The middle class. We cannot be forced to commit a crime once we are aware of the crime. There is not anyway that the Head of the State and the Congress Committe that are a part of passing laws do not know how to implement a plan and law to prevent this crime from happening.

  28. Not 10% for the big guy it's 20%

  29. The wealthy can always take their assets to a more favorable location, that’s going to hurt the USA. The democrats never look at the long term consequences of their short term “fixes”.

  30. No property and no land = part of Agenda 21/Climate change.

  31. There are those today who want to weaken or take away the authority of EACH State Legislators in EACH State, which are part of the elections and the Electoral college process, by pushing through a bill that would strip ALL States of any authority over elections/election laws (take away the Electoral college process/Safeguards/State Legislators) and place elections under the hand/authority/election changes of the Federal government = unconstitutional if pushed through. This change would change/weaken We the People's Votes, which is their VOICE when selecting/choosing = safeguards would be gone if the Electoral college process is taken away, just like the safeguards that have been changed/weakened at our borders, which have been wide open since 2021. This too would be unconstitutional. Your voice/vote would be controlled, maneuvered, manipulated, etc, by the fed gov. Your Constitutional rights manipulated. Our Constitution is a safeguard, a means to keep order/law in our U.S. Again, the safeguards of today would be gone = will be anything goes. Alot of lawlessness, deceit, lies, falsehoods, and unconstitutional acts being played out in our nation. Remember in November.

  32. Don't forget the Race card , they always play the race card !!!

  33. As if they don't waste enough of our tax money. 7 trillion in middle East wars. Just left 90 Billion dollars of equipment and weapons and cash to a terrorist group we fought for 20 years like it was nothing!! Yeah give them more money so they can let millions more illegals in.!! At 30,000 dollars a year each!!!!!!🌹🍀🌹🍀🌹🍀

  34. But B.S.they voted for him.

  35. The petro dollar is done
    Everything else is a massive distraction.

  36. FOX NEWS HATES DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC!!!

  37. The government makes the law!!!!!

  38. One day these Billionaires will grow a pair and speak out against this. Elon Musk seems to be the only one willing to do it.

  39. Democrats are historically thieves.

  40. Ayn Rand Atlas Shrugged moment approaching.

  41. The billionaires run NGOs that create these policies. Perhaps they should stop installing thieves in Congress.

  42. Yes that group pays on average 8%. Fox News is correct that extremely rich people should pay tax at a rate lower than I pay.

  43. This won’t be limited to billionaires. The income tax was supposedly only going to touch the “rich”, but we know how that turned out.
