And you get a car! And you get a car!

It's so easy to be a Democrat politician. You get to just promise handout after handout for votes, and when asked how you are going to pay for everything, y[b]ou get to just say: "I'm going to make sure everyone pays their fair share!!!"[/b][/quote]

Yes, this means that for a change, the top 0.1% is not going to continue to get tax cuts that allow them to make billions of dollars at the expense of the middle and lower classes.  Republican tax cuts have allowed the wealth gap to increase.  The difference in wealth between the C-suiters and the average worker keeps climbing.  And yet the wealthy and corporations are getting the bulk of the tax cuts.  Through to the early 1960's the top marginal tax bracket was around 91%.  Now the top marginal tax bracket is 40%.  The top marginal tax bracket needs to go up again so that wealth at the highest level is taxed higher.  The wealthiest Americans should be paying significantly more than they do.  And that is how much of the social safety net for the middle and lower classes and seniors gets funded.  Additionally, corporations should not be getting massive tax cuts so they can pay out record bonuses to C-suite execs and record dividends to shareholders.  Right now, corporations and the wealthy have been gifted more and more wealth while decreasing the amount that they contribute to the infrastructure of the nation where they make their profits.
