If you are $140k you aren’t near the top 1%. Heck... you’re barely above average in NYC.Joe has put his vision on the net but most of you wont read it. You prefer short bits so here it comes in a way you can understand for 4 simple areas. I’ll add on later after you chew on this.
- Biden Tax plan raises taxes $3.4T with 80% coming from top 1%. I’ll start right away with elephant in the room. We are where we are. We do need to raise incoming tax receipts. He has an ambitious plan but is funding it from those who can pay it. None of you reading this will be affected.
- Biden’s budget plan includes public investments in
- Education
- Universal access to Pre-K
- 2 years paid community college if you want it
- Tuition free for families under $125K
- Infrastructure
- $1.6T in water and transit Infrastructure along with some energy projects
- New housing assistance
- 12 weeks of universal paid maternity leave
- Boosts Social Security for elderly poor who had low lifetime earnings
- Biden is expanding healthcare but not to universal healthcare
- Expands ACA marketplances and subsidies for middle class
- Invests in elder care and makes Medicare available as young as 60
- Claims to offset spending with negotiating lower drug prices
- Biden addresses Immigration reform
- Reverses child separation policy
- Reinstates reasonable asylum policies
- Invests in case processing power not detention (in or out, not held in limbo)
- Kills the DOD funding of wall but does include money for border security
- Rescinds Muslim ban
- Protects Dreamers
- No DACA or pathway to citizen ship in the platform but will be pressured from Dems for sure
