Trump Tax Cuts For The Rich & Corporations 2.0

[JohnEngelman]

Nobody is arguing the fact that Trump cut taxes for those that pay them. The more taxes you pay, the more you’ll save.

What about the national debt?

Half of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, and you ae worried that the rich are taxed too much. You should be worried because capitalism will only be popular when most Americans enjoy steady increases in their standards of living every year. America has not been like that since the recession of 1974.

That, rather than "brainwashing" is the reason socialism is becoming more popular, and why most Americans support higher taxes on the rich. The way to get places politically is not to change people's minds; it is to articulate and channel attitudes that already exist.

When you tax "the rich" you just tax their consumers. That's why no matter how much you tax them, they don't get less rich, things just get shittier for everyone who's not rich enough to cover that cost.

Consumer pays every fucking penny, up front and THEN they get taxed on the sale and maybe even the continued ownership of said property if it's not a consumable prouct. And then you say that's not enough, they gotta pay MORE!! and don't realize it's never enough because you're just screwing yourself.

If that's what makes an economic model popular you better hope the history of socialism isn't put out there......

You have to be brainwashed into thinking capitalism is some boogieman and that spending = saving to think socialism will improve your standards of living.

The way to get places politically is not to change people's minds; it is to articulate and channel attitudes that already exist.

Then the politics of a multicultural democracy with universal sufferage are damned.

That is why Republicans like them.

Try visiting California. Sales taxes, gas taxes, “sin” taxes on cigarettes, alcohol and weed, and parcel taxes are extremely high out there.

The US has a spending problem. Federal tax receipts as a percentage of GDP has been remarkably stable, averaging around 17% (with the rich paying a larger share since Kennedy/Reagan/Bush/Trump the tax reforms.)

Yes, and Donald J Trump has truly set forth to eliminate this problem by passing a spending bill that increases spending more than $3 trillion dollars.


Thanks dear leader.

Indeed. The wine country, the redwoods, the coastline, the mountains, the desert are beautiful places to visit.

And the Democrats shut down the the government for over 40 days because they wanted to spend even more. lol.

Yes, deflection is fun.

March 2024.

Oh so you saw it as a shit hole.

 

[ll74]

Oh so you saw it as a shit hole.

Nope.
Keep trying, though.

 

[Chadrone]

Nope.
Keep trying, though.

Yup, don't have to try when I'm stating facts.

I grew up in Sebastopol and lived most my life in NorCal. It's gone to shit over the last 10 years.

 

[ll74]

Yup, don't have to try when I'm stating facts.

Maybe next time

 

[Chadrone]

Maybe next time

What next time? California is a shit hole, has been for a decade. Facts.

It's not.
But when you're on the internet, you can just say things.

So....probably right

How does the American banking system and fractional reserve lending fit into your fever?

Does the enormous economic leverage of fiat currency handled by those brilliant bankers come with any special responsibility? Banking is the wealthiest sector of the economy. They take their fees and profits out of every transaction.


Yes. When housing becomes commoditized and prices are driven up by wealthy investors, the cost of living becomes a game of profit.


You’re all good ‘cuz you got yours. Good for you. You can laugh as you arm yourself against the hordes of desperate Americans who fall through the cracks.

Just don’t pretend that you are interested in making the country work for anyone but yourself.

You’re still longing for the black market profits of the weed industry from over a decade ago?

Sebastopol? You were born on third base. Which private schools did your parents send you to?

You entered the socialist states of America through military service. Too bad such a deal isn’t available to everyone. Only about 25% of military age Americans are actually eligible for service. So you got good enough genes that you did your time and now you crow about your brilliant planning.


I bet you’re a lot more like an asshole Forest Gump than a private Ryan.

Lol

No you didn't.

 

[Chadrone]

California is so fucked up and retarded that literally went nowhere LOL

Sebastopol? You were born on third base.

If you were buying in today sure, but back in the 70's/80's it was cheap ass small town....the wine boom of the 90's hadn't even hit. Working class farmers.

You entered the socialist states of America through military service.

Nope, natural born citizen. Why are you just making random shit up??

Only about 25% of military age Americans are actually eligible for service.

Yea, most of them are too fuckin' FAT.

So you got good enough genesthat you did your time and now you crow about your brilliant planning.

No, taking advantage of some proper investing has allowed that. The real big shit was the I bought a house in Pescadero I got in 2004 and sold in 2017 for considerably more.

I bet you’re a lot more like an asshole Forest Gump than a private Ryan.
