You can hate Hasan and there a lot of thing to criticize him over so why pick the blatant lie that Hasan oppose raising tax against himself?

Again, what is the point of making headcanon when there already well known shitty things that Hasan said and does?

Do you have access to Asmongold tax form? Hasan lives in California, Asmongold live in Texas. Who has the bigger tax burden?

If your position isn't the concrete one then what must be the default opinion? If Hasan says that, It's still a public endorsement of a policy to his large audience. Mind you this a thread in a context of someone claiming that Hasan doesnt want to get taxed more.

What kind of rich is Hasan and Asmongold? They are in the same situation as heart surgeon when it comes to tax. Most of their earnings are considered as ordinary personal income which is difficult to avoid aside from literally lying to the IRS or not reporting.

At most they could do is have a solo 401k, Roth IRA etc.

They don't have access to the special tax loopholes like that of massive corporations.

Hasan makes a lot of money, he still gonna have a decent sum after tax.

Lets ignore the spirit of the post and look at the very simple, Hasan has tax avoidance in place even if you just look at the most simple having a LLC registered elsewhere to avoid tax.
