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.

"We have some of the lowest tax rates in the world ALREADY."  - [b]No, we have the highest taxes in the world ALREADY making us uncompetitive in a global economy[/b].

This is pure fiction thanks to loopholes and other mechanisms US corporations use to escape taxes - and subsidies that corporations in many industries receive.  US corporations are the most profitable in the world - the US the biggest economy in the world.  Stop with the talking points.

And if the debt is so troubling, then the GOP plan should really irritate you.  But it doesn't. The hypocrisy of stealing from the poor and middle class to give to the uber rich and then complaining about the deficit.  Stunning.

And lastly, countries all over the world understand that if everyone gave more taxes, even an amount like $15K per household, the societal benefits could be astounding.  Except in the greedy U.S..  [/quote]
