Tax the rich policies


Sep 13, 2019, 2:38 PM

Instead of finding ways to increase the tax base to pay for new government programs, how about using any new money to shrink the deficit. Would prefer we reallocated existing funds to remain budget neutral, and use any increases to lower the budget.

Taxing the rich for student loans, healthcare, social security, etc etc only increases future burdens that we'll have to keep funding.

Can Elizabeth Warren or others start talking about the totality of their tax plans and not each one separately?

Who wants to pay more money for nothing?

Our kids and grandkids will take care of everything.

We have to increase revenue through taxes roughly 25% just to break even these days, much less pay off debt. And dems want to start more spending?

It's all just a matter of time. Either way it doesn't matter about the tax brackets. Taxes have always taken between 15-20% of GDP.....forever, literally. No matter if the top rate was 75% or 39%.
