The entire GOP platform is tax cuts for the rich. Oopsie. |
I’m gearing up when the masses begin to Marie Antionette the Musk and Bezos if this country. |
À la lanterne! |
Yes! They were fine when they were OUR billionaires, but their shift to Republicans is NOT okay. They should have shown some loyalty. Democrats MADE Musk. Ingrate. Time for us to Marie Antoinette some mofos |
This is just the beginning. When the massive tax break for the oligarchs off the backs of the bottom 40% of our economy happens there will be massive protests. |
I love how anytime one of these videos drops, Fox News immediately has GOP talking heads on there to reiterate that all the people in the seats for that town hall were paid Democratic protestors.
Are MAGA really falling for that? Non-MAGA Republicans are pissed. Most of my family is made up of non-MAGA Republicans who served their country in the various armed services. They hate Musk and everything that he is doing. They are slowly turning on Trump for allowing Musk to have so much power. |
Whether its Democrats or Republicans chanting, the logic holds. The tech billionaires' wealth went up like 10-fold -- from double-digit to triple-digit billions -- over the 2010s.
They think that's 100% due to their unique brilliance. But, of course, it's due to the trillions of dollars the Federal Reserve has pumped into markets; due to expansive fiscal policy, meager taxes, and government contracts; due to a stable business environment, sound regulation, and an educated workforce; and due to luck. They do not, and have not, paid their fair share of taxes. Of course they should be taxed more. |
This. The tech bros thought they could use culture wars to distract from the fundamental inequity of their tax burden. That only works so long as it is in the abstract. Musk has made the cost very concrete and Americans are getting angry. It’s only the beginning unless the GOP gets its collective head out of Trump’s behind soon. |
“Eggs are too expensive? Let them eat quiche!” |
These fools created the maga monster without thinking about what would happen when the monster turned on them. Did this not occur to them as they gleefully armed them with AR15s |
The amazing thing about Musk is that he soaked Democratic administrations for so much in subsidies. Democratic climate-change-inspired subsidies made him the richest man in the world. At the core, he’s always been a government contractor. And now the ingrate his flipped?! He was just using us?! Eff him. He deserves everything that happens from here in out. Forget taxes. I want expropriations. I want disgorgements. |
Yes, my MAGA family truly believes the lies about paid protestors. |
Not gonna happen. They are terrified of f losing their soft cushy jobs |
What's magas next chant?: "election was stolen, re-do 2024? Dems were right all along." Wake me up from the dream. |
