[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, hope your kids aren't in public school, and I really hope you don't plan on Social Security or Medicare.  Please don't take  unemployment benefits,  or complain  about potholes. Don't engage in anything that has federal funding, please, which includes higher ed, the arts, medical advances from research.

It's all a one sided understanding with you types, but you're the first to complain  about inflation,  right? We have inflation due to corporate gouging- they got bail outs and turned around and took advantage of the system by raising prices. 
. It's not even capitalism we have,  it's a 
system of oligarchy.

Our nation has the very rich, supported by tax cuts and benefits,  but also we have people literally starving on the street and dying from a lack of health  care access.  So is this the question you really want to ask  today?[/quote]

You are confused. Capitalism doesn’t mean don’t pay any taxes at all. Certain socialist services are necessary for a functioning capitalist society. And by the way the wealthiest 50% pay most of the taxes in this country so how is it that the wealthy aren’t paying their fair share. But paying taxes so someone’s student debt can be canceled when they alone agreed to their loan is not what capitalists had in mind (unless you want to buy votes). Or paying for illegal aliens’ health care for that matter. [/quote]

I am not confused.  The wealthiest are afforded insane tax cuts- just look at Bezo's  sneaky move, and he's at the top of the system. Going down we have multi billionaires and millionaires just getting richer.

We have CEO earning millions while employing workers ar minimum wage. It's disgusting.

You're worried about loan payoff? Have you looked into the onerous interest rates charged on college loans? And immigrants? Yes, they are now the backbone of our economy,  we'd collapse without them. Yes, healthcare should be afforded to everyone, not the wealthy. [/quote][/quote]
