Unless you have over $100 million in assets, it doesn't affect you. It is also impossible to implement, so is really a non-issue.


I'm not trying to put companies out of business. That's what things like this do.

She and her team have a fundamental misunderstanding of how money and business works. That will further damage us in a globally competitive economy.

Impossible to implement in the same way you pay property taxes on unrealized income every year?

Her grasp of economics and what it takes to grow the economy and businesses far exceeds that of the Trump team. That is why 16 Nobel Prize laureates said they are “deeply concerned” about the risks a second Donald Trump presidency would have for the U.S. economy. On Tuesday, more than 400 economists and former policymakers endorsed Vice President Harris in an open letter published Tuesday, arguing former President Trump’s policy proposals would create uncertainty for the economy. His inexplicable focus on tariffs is sure to reignite inflation after the Biden administration was left to clean-up Trump's inflation inducing policies from his last term.

Yes. Harris is saying that billionaires and corporations should have higher marginal tax rates.

What is your objection?

She and her team did this:



Results matter and she is producing.

She's trying to play it safe, and let Trump lose. But she's not giving much to the people who know Trump is a moron but are voting for party/cabinet not the person. I think that's why she's not winning.

She put out 82 pages of specific economic proposals. It’s not as long a Project 2025 but there’s a lot there, check it out.

Hey, we've had a progressive tax forever. Let's not act like this isn't the sounding trumpet of every democrat every 15 minutes. Just just restates sound bites.

WTF she can't understand that throwing $25K at a builder will simply raise prices to soak up that free gubmint money is beyond me.

She's almost infantile in her thinking. Her advisors are economically illiterate.

You’re following this election and you seriously don’t know about this? Laughable.

I don't care about hopes, dreams and aspirations. I care about the mechanics of HOW it works.

What do you damage to give someone else something for free? These are equations. There are two sides to the ledger.

The money isn't thrown at a builder, it is provided to a qualified potential buyer. read what the qualifications are, not everyone will be eligible, not even close.

Q2: 2minutes. Trump economy: attacked Trump's performance in plan

Q3: 2 minutes Trump's tax model expires. What's next?
No tax increases for people earning under $400K. Unclear if that's related to Trump's tax, or post-expiration model. Child tax credit. Corporate tax and billionaire tax raise. No specific proposal.

Q4: 2 minutes How to build more housing, not just subsidizing prices?
Tax incentives. "3 million more units". "Reduce red tape" . "Do something eth transit dollars". No details or examples. "Holistic".

Q5: 2 minutes Liberty Bell in PA. Japanese company.(Some steel plant? What is this issue?)
"Rah rah steel and steelworker.s."

Half time. Unions next.


If this is your standard, then you have a much higher bar for her than for Trump. Judge them on the same standard and the comparison isn't close, but if you are going to grade Trump on a curve, then that is the bias coming through.




I'm a college educated UMC liberal in MD.

She doesn't need my vote.

She needs middle class medium education people in PA, MI, WI, maybe NC, GA



More important are exciting "the base" - that is how Biden and Obama were successful. Chasing after the mythical indpendents is a fools game and why Hillary lost.


Uh dude Harris has gotten the base all excited and enthused. Where have you been?


I am not saying it isn't excited. I am saying the Obama/Biden blueprint is successful, the Hillary blueprint isn't.


I've said this before. She's not Obama. She won't get all of Obama's votes. She needs something else in the mix.


Abortion is in the mix. But it's still kind of abstract to a lot of people, especially men. It's not constantly on top of mind like every gas tank refill and grocery shop.

They actually discussed this towards the end. Abortion absolutely is an economic issue for young couples and families.

Now it's late September. She needs to spend that money and volunteers convincing moderates that she has something to offer.


Her job is to win. she does that by getting more people registered to vote and getting those voters to execute their ballots. If she can get independents and "never Trump" republicans, then all the better. Her job should not be to pander her vision to the middle. If "independents" want to vote for Trump, then we will get the country we deserve.


This.


You should be more worried about independents not voting because that is going to be her real Achilles' heel.
