You're one of those hard Left morons who think there should be zero millionaires and billionaires through a 100% tax on all wealth, that ONLY the Government should own all businesses. IOW, a pure Communist shitbag! Patton was right. the USSR should've been next on our nuke target list.You know…the whole reason the Boshevik’s rose and spread, and Communism was so attractive in theory (though abysmal in practice) was the piss poor conditions and lack of rights and freedoms for the average worker in an era ruled by the uber -rich elites. Destroying Russia would not have destroyed tbe discontent and anger that drove it.
Incorrect. A share of taxes.
How about giving some actual..you know..EVIDENCE that they are going after small businesses?
Everything comes down to $$$$ and this isn’t .
Awesome! I have no idea what state you live in, but my state does not..
My State's Legislature does what it is required to do within the confines of our State Constitution.
We have a broad representation of political affiliations and elections on a regular basis ... Lots of Democrat and Republican Governors.
Did you know that we had the first African American Govenor?
I have no problem with how your state is run.
If you have problem with the way my State is run ... I could suggest you move here become a resident and eligible to vote ...
But you probably wouldn't like it ... Food is terrible, people are fat and ugly, not very Progressive ... Shoot, our football teams even suck.
You would be better staying where you are ... There is actually some chicken poop around here ...
But anyway ... Thanks for the chat.

No ... If two people pay the same percentage at the same rate on the same occasions ... There would be no disparity in tax.
There would be if you wanted to say they may spend a larger percentage of their income in taxes.
The argument here is not that the rich pay more, but that in proportion to their income, the 20% in taxes they pay would only affect their discretionary spending whereas for a poor person, it would affect necessities: rent, mortgage, utility, food).Of course you could make the point that there are more poor people than rich people ...
But even at 1% of total income across the board ... The rich would still pay more in taxes.
You know ... Because 1% of a $1 is a penny ... And 1% of $100 is a buck.

Nothing sily about it.
Sure there is. Although, I’m still trying to figure why I, a creature who works two jobs for a living, must pay more in taxes on my income than someone who lives off the income of capital gains and never lifts a finger to work. You’re right. It is unfair.
Hmmm…you keep bringing up CRT, though I’ve said nothing about it. I fail to see how it is relevant to taxes.
Class warfare…well, the reality is that there are those who have a lot (the Jeff Bezos etc) and those who don’t. We know who has the power to most influence the political class. That’s not garbage, just a frank statement of the way things are.
While it was an abysmal failure as an economic theory, the idea you quote above is a good cultural template for a society that strives to go beyond survival of the fittest. In a nutshell, it is why we create meaningful employment, albeit sheltered in some cases, for the most vulnerable amongst us, instead of relegating them to a life without dignity.
Ya. I do. It’s like fascist. It fits neatly on a bumper sticker yet means….little.
Except our football team rocks.

If you feel you can dismiss the rest with that garbage ... By trying to present the same Critical Theory and Class Warfare garbage ...
I very correctly cited the source of ... Then I am certain you missed the point to start with.
I also didn't ask you if you like Marxism ... I just identified that what you were talking about when you said what you would prefer.
And Critical Theory has been around a lot longer than Critical Race Theory (of which I did not speak of).
There is some legitimacy behind class warfare and certainly historical precedent.
Critical Theory is Marxism and Class Warfare ...
Where Critical Race Theory is little more than a very shoddy attempt to attach the Race Card to Critical Theory in order to cast a wider net ...
And hopeful capture more imbeciles that don't really know what they are talking about.
I mean hell ... If Class Warfare isn't working fast enough ... Let's try a Racial Warfare ...

I’ll respond to this rather than shit can it (my port a potty is overflowing).
I’m not trying any crap with you. You label things. If you are going to do that, then don’t gripe, or, better yet, enlighten me. I know what I am, so what am I wrong about?
What CRT garbage are you referring to? There is no point when you have not cited anything (beyond “I said so”).
She is utterly ignorant on utterly every subject.Have you been paying absolutely NO attention?
Which party spearheaded the effort to close down small business, and which party do you trash when they want everybody to have the same opportunity to keep their business open?
Jeff Bezos, alone, benefitted from the scheme to the tune of 70 BILLION dollars. Also reaping multi billions were Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey and many others.
You cannot be so utterly ignorant as to think these are all republicans, testicle?
I’m not bound (in conversation) by what you think you asked or didn’t ask. This is irrelevant.
There is some legitimacy behind class warfare and certainly historical precedent.
Which is what Democrats in the US are currently building up to, sweety.You know…the whole reason the Boshevik’s rose and spread, and Communism was so attractive in theory (though abysmal in practice) was the piss poor conditions and lack of rights and freedoms for the average worker in an era ruled by the uber -rich elites. Destroying Russia would not have destroyed tbe discontent and anger that drove it.
Labels are difficult, and usually not accurate. I honestly thought you were a libertarian so apologies for that..
Maybe I could have clarified for future reference ...
Classical Liberal and I do have both Conservative and Strict Constructionist leanings.
I really don't like Libertarian about as much as I don't like Republicans, Democrats, The Green Party, Birthday Party ...
Well, I am not going to list them all and I think you get the picture.
And we don't ever need to get in a fight in regard to something that just doesn't matter.
I am not going to ask you your opinion of me ... And where I may come after some of your ideology, I will try not to tell you who you are.

Which is what Democrats in the US are currently building up to, sweety.
only in your dreams. While I fully support workers rights…communism is a total failure supported mainly by perpetual adolescents donning Che tshirts.
I find it hard to argue with that.
The argument here is not that the rich pay more, but that in proportion to their income, the 20% in taxes they pay would only affect their discretionary spending whereas for a poor person, it would affect necessities: rent, mortgage, utility, food).
I support a progressive tax system obviously.
Why yes.Of course you do. It's not your money they're taking.
Democrats are pushing policies to make "workers" ever more dependent on the government. They're sapping wealth from all Americans everywhere. Everybody's losing. It's not just going to Democrats, but it is going to the government.
