"What is the Democrats' message?"

[francoHFW]

So you are okay with them NOT paying their fair share, but want the rest of US to pay more?

How can you get that so wrong LOL! I want big tax cuts for the non rich and big tax hikes on the rich and Mega rich especially.

You know the non rich, don't pay taxes, why should they get a tax cut, when they get income tax credits? Isnt taking enough of someone elses money enough? Or are you a welfare queen so want more?

Totally duped.https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2012/09/19/heres-why-the-47-percent-argument-is-an-abuse-of-tax-data/?utm_term=.c038d90627fb&ved=2ahUKEwji7ZSWkbDaAhVtZN8KHZoaDBkQFjAAegQICBAB&usg=AOvVaw3is_MzKlPNxJAfC1hfZZHd
Actually we have basically a flat tax system if you count everything, a giveaway to the rich.

Back a few posts, I think I asked what the income tax should be on the rich, yet never was answered. How much should the rich be taxed? Why should people who don't work, be allowed to vote? If you don't contribute to the country then you shouldn't have a right to be part of it...

Read my link, dupe. We have flat tax system if you count all taxes, a giveaway to the rich. And it just got a lot worse.

Over the past 35 years the American dream has gradually disappeared. The process was slow, so most people didn’t notice. They just worked a few more hours, borrowed a little more and cut back on non-essentials. But looking at the numbers and comparing them over long time periods, it is obvious that things have changed drastically. Here are the details:

1. WORKERS PRODUCE MORE BUT THE GAINS GO TO BUSINESS.

Over the past 63 years worker productivity has grown by 2.0% per year.

But after 1980, workers received a smaller share every year. Labor’s share of income (1992 = 100%):

1950 = 101%
1960 = 105%
1970 = 105%
1980 = 105% – Reagan
1990 = 100%
2000 = 96%
2007 = 92%

A 13% drop since 1980

2. THE TOP 10% GET A LARGER SHARE.

Share of National Income going to Top 10%:

1950 = 35%
1960 = 34%
1970 = 34%
1980 = 34% – Reagan
1990 = 40%
2000 = 47%
2007 = 50%

An increase of 16% since Reagan.

3. WORKERS COMPENSATED FOR THE LOSS OF INCOME BY SPENDING THEIR SAVINGS.

The savings Rose up to Reagan and fell during and after.

1950 = 6.0%
1960 = 7.0%
1970 = 8.5%
1980 = 10.0% – Reagan
1982 = 11.2% – Peak
1990 = 7.0%
2000 = 2.0%
2006 = -1.1% (Negative = withdrawing from savings)

A 12.3% drop after Reagan.

4. WORKERS ALSO BORROWED TO MAKE UP FOR THE LOSS.

Household Debt as percentage of GDP:

1965 = 46%
1970 = 45%
1980 = 50% – Reagan
1990 = 61%
2000 = 69%
2007 = 95%

A 45% increase after 1980.

5. SO THE GAP BETWEEN THE RICHEST AND THE POOREST HAS GROWN.

Gap Between the Share of Capital Income earned by the top 1%
and the bottom 80%:

1980 = 10%
2003 = 56%

A 5.6 times increase.

6. AND THE AMERICAN DREAM IS GONE.

The Probably of Moving Up from the Bottom 40% to the Top 40%:

1945 = 12%
1958 = 6%
1990 = 3%
2000 = 2%

A 10% Decrease.

Keep watching Fox and listening 2 Rush and you become a total idiot, super duper dupe.

 

[Reasonable]

The Trump cult still hasn’t figured out yet why republicans are resigning in record numbers.
They know what’s coming.

 

[francoHFW]

Democrats message.

Exactly 180°wrong silly dumbass ignorant Dupe.

To protect these huge tax cuts for the rich since 1982, we have cut help for colleges and training, added taxes on the nonrich, and blocked all the benefits of citizenry that all other successful modern countries have, not 2 mention brilliant GOP moves like SNL bubble, the stupidest Wars ever, and another corrupt GOP world depression. Great job scumbag GOP and silly Dupes like you.

Actually we have basically a flat tax system if you count everything, a giveaway to the rich.

By the way, I am in the top 5%. I have my income supplemented by dividend income. Why should more of my money be taken, so shits like you can get just enough to live and vote for the people giving you that money?

Well, hater Dupe, your ridiculous greedy idiot party is turning us into an oligarchy, a banana Republic. Without cheap college and training and living wage, good cheap daycare and Healthcare and good infrastructure, are middle class has gone 2 hell and the country with it. Your brainwashed probably racist hate and blame of the poor is noted.

With the crazy liberal taxation and self hate, the middle class is doomed. Why is the middle class declining when tax rates are 10x what they used to be?

Oh because are your "free shit" isn't free.

Ah, leftists always whining for more free shit.

The GOP has been in charge of tax rates for 35 years, Super Dupe. We are the richest country in the world and screw over our nonrich more than anyone. Great job!!

The democrat politicians are only concerned with keeping their loyal sheep so they can continue living the life of someone who worked.

People like francoHFW dutifully follow because they’re slow and don’t better.

 

[Anathema]

Liar. Let me educate your dumbass with a short list.

• We will fight to end voter suppression.
• We will fight for working families – to make childcare available, to make college affordable, to increase the minimum wage, to lower health care costs, and to fight back against big banks that prey on their customers.
• We will fight to end the epidemic of mass incarceration that destroys people, families, and communities, and we will demand equal justice for all.
• We will fight to protect the lives of 800,000 Dreamers and hundreds of thousands more from Haiti and El Salvador and Nicaragua with Temporary Protected Status.
• We will say, loud and clear, that black lives matter. And when a racist bully talks about people who march with white supremacists and Nazis as “very fine people,” we will fight back. When he refers to countries in Africa as shitholes, we will fight back. And when he uses hateful rhetoric to push discrimination in America – you better believe we will fight back.

We will fight for justice, for opportunity, for equality for all.

Like I said... The Democrats are all for supporting those who can't or won't take care of themselves at the expense of those of us who can and do take care of ourselves.

You're smart, but you haven't figured out that taxing the heck out of people is oppressive? You haven't figured out that attacking free speech is a bad idea? Or that racial division for political gain is bad for all Americans? I never said I was bright, but at least I figured those out.
