Regardless of how much you do or don't make, working half of your week to pay the government is not okay.

Sure it is. You get a lot of benefit from the government.

It won't stop there and it will begin to impact normal people. This threshold will get lower overtime and it will eventually be used to take money from almost everyone that is not broke. The income tax used to only apply to super rich people when it came out and now almost everyone pays it. Also, the fact that the tax is explicitly tied to a specific level of wealth probably makes the tax unconstitutional at the federal level. Taxing unrealized gains is no necessarily unconstitutional, but an unrealized gain tax conditional on net worth is likely illegal.

True. Listen to Harris herself (not deepfakes) talk about her plan, not the media’s interpretation of it. It’s like boiling a frog. You can find clips of Harris describing her strategy and goals on SkyNews. YouTube is your friend here.

JFC you guys actually say this shit unironically.

I'm fine with this as long if she makes a new law that says you have to spend government benefits on salad ingredients instead of i-Phones.

Inflation isn't what you think it is. It feels like a group of right wing trolls just discovered DCUM.

More than likely she won't have congressional support for most of these proposals and will end up with something rather tame.. much like the pathetic gun control legislation we normally get. So, chill.

If it really ends up being as bad as OP's propaganda, pay up. If you make $400K+, you are afford to. It will still be progressive.

I really hate the "you can afford it" crowd. Makes me even more determined to vote red. And I am pro choice, pro LGBTQ, pro environment. But the biggest impact that politics has on me, personally, is how much of MY money that I use to care for MY loved ones are they going to take. So I hold my nose and vote Republican. I always say, if Republicans would drop their stupid social platforms, they'd be the perfect party. And so would Dems, if they would drop the revolting "you can afford it" + "fair share" BS that disincentivizes hard work and productivity and encourages laziness and hands out.
