Do you support taxing unrealized gains (Poll)

Add to that the 6% increase the Marxist dems want on corporate taxes.

So that would be a big no.

All that means is price increases for the middle class, thus a tax by another name so the Marxists can give it to the most undeserving. Fuck them.

Did the 17% tax cut that Republicans gave to the corporations in 2017, result in any decrease in prices for the American consumer????? Did it result in any raises for the American workers???

So how is clawing back 7% of that tax cut supposed to increase prices for the American consumer???? Please explain.

Also, the Democrats have not proposed anything that could ever be construed as "Marxist", so please stop the gaslighting because nobody in the USA is buying right wing bullshit any longer.

The American people are not going back. And they're telling your that very, very, loudly.

More importantly taxes pay for what the gov't does, the military, social security, etc. The challenge is raise the required revenue as fairly as possible while inflicting the least amount of pain on the people and the economy.

1. Cut the Federal Budget to 2019 levels plus as needed to cover the interest on the Debt, say $5.xT
2. That should come close to a Balanced Budget, then fix entitlements, SS & Medicare (1st two below)

• Fix Social Security net zero (raise / remove the cap, EVERYONE pays in, no exceptions)
• Fix Medicare net zero (take Medicare deduction from ALL personal income, not just earned)

3. Add new taxes, NETS about $650b in new revenue:

• reduce/remove tax deductions (aka "loop-holes") Nets ~$400b
• new 0.2% transaction tax on value of financial transaction Nets ~$150b
• new remittance tax on money sent out of US Nets ~$ 6b (pays for wall)
• remove Capital Gains Tax loop-hole (tax as reg. income) Nets ~$100b

4. In case of emergency "break glass" option

• Send Welfare to the states +$1.3T (put lazy bums to work)
• Send Education to the states +$300b
• Send Medicaid to the states +$500b

5. Business Tax increases are also an option.

/——/ That’s sounds all noble and logical except no matter how much we are taxed, it’s never enough. 37T in debt is proof of that.
