NP here and I'll gladly pay 15K more a year in taxes - a lot for my family -  if it means we have single payer healthcare for every American, fully funded public school education, including affordable public pre K, and we properly care for our most vulnerable in this country, including the mentally ill, veterans, and the elderly.

But the Republicans aren't about taking money from people like me and helping society at large. They are taking money from middle class families like mine to give more to BILLIONAIRES AND CORPORATIONS.  Disgraceful.  We have some of the lowest tax rates in the world ALREADY.  And after all the yakking and groaning from the GOP about the deficit - they're happy to add 1.5 trillion dollars to it to line the pockets of people like DeVos and the Koch brothers.

Is that the utopia that Trumpkins have in mind?  Is that what coal miners in Pennsylvania voted for?

I'd love to hear any Republican give an explanation for that with a straight face.  And trickle down economics is a hoax and no respectable economist supports that theory.  So you can move to the next cheap talking point.  [/quote]

Yea, you aren't going to get that for $15 grand. Sorry to wake you out of your idiotic progressive dream. We have a debt of about [b]$62,000[/b] for each and every person in the country TODAY. That's an indisputable government supplied number.

&quot;We have some of the lowest tax rates in the world ALREADY.&quot;  - No, we have the highest taxes in the world ALREADY making us uncompetitive in a global economy.

You are an idiot. The country already has debt as big as the gdp. How does giving tax cuts reduce debt/deficit? It will make US like Greece in the long run.

Why hasn't any tax cuts produced the growth that replaces the lost revenue due to tax cuts? It only increases deficit. Can you name any time when this happened? Reagan? Or two bushes? With bushes left the economy in a recession. Bush squandered the Clinton surplus in 8 years. [/quote]

We went from 10 ----&gt; 20 TRILLION in eight years.

That means, we went from $30,000 dollars to $60,000 dollars of debt for each and every person in the country (and that's just the numbers on the books. Off books, it's much more).

That's for EVERY person, not every worker. For EVERY worker, it's $170,000.

DO YOU RUN YOUR HOUSEHOLD FINANCES LIKE THAT?  YOU CAN'T TAX ENOUGH TO CLOSE THAT GAP. PEOPLE STOP WORKING WHEN YOU TAX THEM AT AN 85% TAX RATE. YES, I'M YELLING YOU DUMB MOTHER FUCKER.[/quote]
