Angry Liberal

Welp, that describes pretty much every hillbilly 8th grade dropout on social media...

Multiple Choice: A, B, C - or D - all of the above?

That's pretty ridiculous. Speaking as an independent, they're more likely to get it in my experience - and be conversant in why it was bad for the economy here, and near lethal in the US (where the idiot socialists said, Hey if 70% is good, 90% will be even better!)

I oppose the corporatocracy, but the Laffer curve is real, and Dems don't seem to get it :-/

the laffer curve has serious issues,not dismissing it,just pointing out it is not the holy grail some economists pretend it to be.

and my meme specifically is criticizing those who are ignorant of our own history,and what marginal,progressive and even effective tax rates actually are.

just like I find the "taxes as theft" is ridiculously retarded,i equally find "tax us out of debt" to be just as naive'.

any way you wish to cut it.
our tax structure has been broken for a long time.
and right now,the dying American middle class has been burdened to the point of demolition.

here are some points that I think need serious attention:
1.companies like amazon tend to pay $0 in federal taxes.
2.many times these companies get sweetheart deals,where YOUR state taxes,and the sales tax is never paid to the state.the company is allowed to keep those taxes.(which is a form of socialism.so I agree with people suspicious of socialism)
.
I just realized I would be here all day laying out just how f**ked our tax system is,and how it has become socialism for the rich.

so I will leave with this:
even 2500 years ago,the Athenians realized the necessity of taxation in order to sustain a civilized society.

Agree with most of what you say, but what I said about the idiocy of 70% stands. We owe most of our modern economy specifically to reversing things like what that AOC idiot calls for daily.

And I believe the truth will come out - on which maybe you could come to agree someday - that our current excessive tax burden is NOT to sustain normal government operation, but to put the population into eternal wage slavery to debt manufactured by the banks with the creation of the Federal Reserve. The average American didn't pay any taxes at ALL prior to the illegal creation of the IRS shortly after that to enforce it.

You think your taxes go to defense and public infrastructure today, when those are instead paid for with debt imposed on your kids and grandkids. What you pay now goes to nothing more than servicing the debt.

Goldman Sachs hates no one more than people like Ron Paul, and loves no one more than f**wit socialists like Bernie and AOC.
