[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with her policy planks but has she articulated specifically how she would pay for them? Tobin tax? Wealth tax? What levels?

I imagine rolling back the Trump tax cut, and the Bush tax cuts for the top wealth-holders would go a long way toward payment.[/quote]
No it would not. That's the false belief of liberals.

Like this free college crap. There aren't enough "rich" 1% people to cover these payments. That's because they pay a lot per person, but as a whole, it doesn't go far because there are so few of them. You'd have to dip pretty far down into the taxpayer base for it to mean something.

You know what WOULD amount to real money? Take a look at those in the bottom 30% - 50%, who now pay only 3% of all income taxes. (The top half pays 97%.) if you required that bracket, meaning around 50 million people who currently pay zilch, to contribute a little something in return for all the benefits they receive as a result of being part of this country, now that would be significant.

The people in the bottom third would still be exempt. [/quote]
