This guy put the stoop in stupid:

(CNSNews.com) - Rep. Keith Ellison (D-Minn.) told a gathering of Democrats, “The bottom line is we’re not broke, there’s plenty of money, it’s just the government doesn’t have it.” Ellison was discussing his ‘Inclusive Prosperity Act’ measure at the July 25th Progressive Democrats of America roundtable in Washington.

“People like, George Soros, Bill Gates, Warren Buffett, Paul Krugman, Joe Stiglitz, Jeffrey Sax, Dean Baker, Robert Poland, Larry Summers have said they all support a transaction tax,” Ellison said.

“The bottom line is we’re not broke, there’s plenty of money, it’s just the government doesn’t have it,” Ellison continued, “The government has a right, the government and the people of the United States have a right to run the programs of the United States. Health, welfare, housing – all these things.”​

the problem with libtard sheeple - they do not think for themselves, only repeat the mantra they have been told

EVERY government is counting on the money of the middle class - they know that two opposite ends of the scale will not pay anything, the aim is always at those in the middle

Jesus F^$%$^ Christ....

When will this stop.
Where will it stop..
Will it ever stop.

Another tax,then another....
When they need more they will come after our IRA and 401 k Plan accounts.
Why?....because they need to spend.They need to fund all their grand ideas.

And people wonder why the Republicans fight these people all the time.

 

[Book of Jeremiah]

The millionaires are abandoning ship. By the time this is over - there will be NO MONEY. Then the poor truly will be poor and the rich will be living in Israel. That fulfills bible prophecy because Israel becomes fabulously wealthy in the end days. It has never made more sense than it does right now.

 

[Rozman]

TEA party....Taxed Enough Already....
Democrat party....people can never be taxed enough.

Ahhh.. yet another congress critter that thinks the government has RIGHTS, his ilk is almost as bad as the numbskulls that think the government creates rights.

There ya go.

It's their money and they will let us have what they think we should be able to have.

Just a modern day version of Slavery. The only difference is that we vote for the Slave Masters.

did he proceed to the logical conclusion that the government should expropriate it?

In an article from 1965 entitled “Problems Facing Our Socialism,” Barack Obama’s father stated:

Theoretically, there is nothing that can stop the government from taxing 100% of income so long as the people get benefits from the government commensurate with their income which is taxed. . . It is a fallacy to say there is a limit (to tax rates), and it is a fallacy to rely mainly on individual free enterprise to get the savings.

Dreams of my Father, indeed!

Yet despite not having the money that has not stopped the Government from spending it and running up nearly 17 trillion in debt I shudder to think what they would do if they actually had the money.
