Elon Musk says he’ll pay more than $11 billion in tax this year

Instead, according to ProPublia, Mr Musk didn’t pay any federal income taxes in 2018, and had a “ true tax rate ” of about 3.27 per cent between 2014 and 2018, a figure reached by comparing the growth in his fortune to the amount of taxes he paid. Senator Elizabeth Warren, a strong proponent of reforms to increase taxes on the ultra-wealthy, responded to the honour by writing on Twitter, “Let’s change the rigged tax code so The Person of the Year will actually pay taxes and stop freeloading off everyone else.” Mr Musk fired back, writing, “And if you opened your eyes for 2 seconds, you would realize I will pay more taxes than any American in history this year.” The back-and-forth comes as top Democrats eye increasing taxes on the ultra-rich, including a proposal to tax the increase in value of certain stock-holdings, a key method billionaires use to grow their wealth with having to pay taxes until they decide to sell the stocks off. The tricksters will conflate capital allocation with consumption.” ​​In August, a Tesla filing revealed that some 88 million of Musk’s Tesla shares, about $63 billion worth, have been pledged as collateral "to secure certain personal indebtedness”, a likely method of obtaining low-tax loans from banks unavailable to most normal people.
