:dwillhuh:
Explain to me the willingness to give our govt. which has hit record lows across the board in public approval more money? and explain the contempt for those of us that distrust and believe we should starve the beast until it becomes a govt. worth supporting? The public distrust the government... some anti tax sentiment seems natural.


:scust:
I couldn't imagine giving a raise to an employee with the track record/approval rating our govt. has, yet that's exactly what many of you wish would happen...

All this harping on government fails to mention that government approval is so low because it's bought by rich people. If the government passed something like this it means that the rich's stranglehold on it is no more and it's working more for the common person than the rich elite.

No argument there... my point is anyone suggesting the public hand over more money to a government the public completely distrust must expect legitimate resistance... and shouldn’t be shocked or offended by the resistance.

Suggesting we raise taxes without policies in place to uplift black people comes across as we need more money to increase disparities, fund illegal wars, support Israel and destabilize brown countries.

It’s a conversation starter.

If the conversation was about taxing people at 97% most people would support that tax. The MSM doesn’t want to allow that conversation to happen.

This makes no sense at all ...
70% is too high at that point but I get it, this is to start the conversation and negotiate to an acceptable rate.

It's not too high for income overall 10m, but it also isn't going to spur the economy anything special. This should be priority # 2160 in the list of priorities . But it's meat for the socialists, I would much prefer closing corporate and high income loopholes to first generate more taxes and see where your levels are at that point

Lmfao .are you still talking about the 70% marginal tax ? Cuz somehow you believe this passage is somehow going to make the government more efficient and better viewed ...yeah more revenue is gonna end the gridlocks

Yes you increased taxes , now all the poor rich people and corporations won't have any excess cash to spare to lobby government :stopitslime:

You're right, it would never work "because". We should just allow our country to go on it's current path to destruction and not try anything new. :heh:


We are heading to destruction ? What metric are you using ? Unemployment is down . Poverty will start decreasing. And the economy is currently healthy . Not sure what the measuring stick is. What socialism tricks are we going to use today

No government bought and paid for by the rich would ever pass a 70% marginal tax rate on them so just off the fact that something like that passes means the rich have lost their control over government.

You are stupid naive or both. You really think they are going to pass major economic policies aimed at only 13% of the population?

You know this is impossible. Just say you want to “starve the best” and stop being disingenuous.

:stopitslime: only 60% right now support this...and that was from a liberal poll. How many of those 60% do you believe make over $10m ?

Fact is this has no correlation to anything you're mentioning . Most rich people could care less about this , it's the other loop holes that impact them greatly . This is a merely an easy distraction

Meanwhile Elizabeth Warren is proposing just that... and congress is proposing laws specifically targeting Israel which isn’t even part of the population...

:deadmanny:

The DNC cacs got you out here shooting down the desire for pro black policies with vigor.
That’s the same energy that use to be directed at socialism, now look where we are with the idea not being immediately laughed out of the room.

Even if you believe what your saying a black man being adamantly against pro black policies and hostile towards other blacks who desire them is text book c00ning... not Coli c00ning but actual c00ning.

You support Ron and Rand Paul with vigor. Ron Paul, the publisher of racist newsletters that called for a literal race war. You are in no position to call anyone a c00n.

My disgust is with a disingenuous douche bag libertarian hiding his true intentions of dismantling government behind some pro black ruse.

You might be able to fool the faux militants in TRL who don't know your history, but I won't let you get away with that shyt in HL.

Employment is down because most jobs are being filled or converted to part time labor which I already posted about and there is absolutely no indication that wages are going to increase substantially or income inequality is going to decrease. That's not even talking about environmental destruction.


As to why AOCs 70% marginal tax plan has higher favorability than Trumps tax cuts

fukk outta here :camby:

Dismantling our white supremacist/anti black government is pro black breh...:dwillhuh: its supporting it and trusting it not treat you the way it always has since the beginning that's ridiculous.
Ron Paul wanted to decriminalize drugs, and end our involvement in the middle east. If he was running today I'd vote for that even if he penned the article himself while wearing a white hood.
Nothing would benefit my people more than putting an end to the war on drugs, and the destabilization of foreign nations.

...only by focusing on the small picture can you possibly view support for him as an L for blacks.
