it’s certainly worth asking if a few of Harris’s economic policy proposals are viable or if she could even accomplish them with Congress if she tried.
What’s also important to note, however, is that there is a variety; they are complex; and they are creative.
That’s always been true about leftwing economic ideas. It’s out of the box thinking in a changing economy. What’s republican policy in comparison? All we get is “lower taxes for corporations and the wealthy. Derp!” It’s the same damn thing with every republican politician and those polices do not actually spur economic growth. Why would corporations invest the money they save from tax cuts in labor if it is just easier for them to keep it? As far as what rich spend with everyday purchases, they spend as much as someone in the middle class. Consumer spending from them is not going to boost the economy.
Now I’ll give the Trump campaign credit for the no tax on tips idea that Harris copied, but I guarantee you Trump himself did not come up with that idea. Either because he would never give a shit about those type of workers to want to help them, he’s too stupid, or both.
