Because:
1. The dems have shown that they aren't going to raise taxes significantly, and
2. Taxes aren't the only issue.
I'm more aligned with Republicans on social issues, so dems would need to make a clear difference on economics for me to consider them.
As it is, we have a choice between borrow and spend dems, and borrow and spend reps.

Even you aren't a big enough liar to claim that 39.6% is taxing the hell out of someone. You've dodged that repeatedly.

Yes, some posts back I already said the dems should do that if they want my vote.
You are delusional.
Berinie, " Billionaires are holding our nation hostage"
Warren, "If you want to make money, good for you, but we want fairness".
GOP, "FUCK YOU I GOT MINE.
Trump, LITERALLY SAID IN A MEETING, to BILLIONAIRES, after he cut taxes, "I just made you all a lot richer."
Our politicans DO want your vote, you are just too fixated on bullshit distractions the orange bigot throws in front of you to see clearly.
What our politicians DO NOT WANT though, is the vote of a bigot. So if you think black NFL players are evil, then no go find a time machine and move back to WW2 Germany where Hitler thought black athletes were cheating and inferior.
Now, if you claim not to be a bigot, THEN fucking stop supporting an asshole who panders to bigots.

The republicunts in the legislature are losing their fucking minds trying to sabotage it. So much for the "will of the people" when rich motherfuckers are involved.
I tend not to talk in terms of "all" but in terms of long term climate.
I'd agree right now too much of the top in our point of history forgets or doesn't care that they get rich only because of the labor they hire.
That hasn't always been the majority climate. Henry Ford is a great example of a rich person who actually cared about the stability of his workers. I would have also voted for Teddy, a republican because he was extremely pro worker.
I'd agree right now that the GOP should be flipping out because they know they have been exposed for the greed they protect.
But yea, if you make more 250k, per year, you need to shut the fuck up about taxes.

Where did I object to wealth? I never did that. I object to abuse of power. HUGE FUCKING DIFFERENCE.
Billionaire Nick Hanauer would agree with me, not you.

If I were childless, I wouldn't care. But, I have children, and hopefully someday grandchildren. I'd like for them to have a reasonable shot at a prosperous future.

At the beginning of the 2016 election, I said that Bill Clinton's presidency was successful, and Hillary would likely be 8 years of the same, so I was considering voting for her. But, she went far left, something Bill didn't do. Maybe that was Bernie's fault? Anyway, the point is that not everyone fits into your neat stereotypes and caricatures.

So you support a party that fucks you over on health care? You do know your party wants to end the "pre existing" protection? I hope your family even if you can afford health care in the private sector, doesn't get screwed by that if they do.

Yeah..sure, Hillary is a far left harpy. Whatever you say. I mean...I wish it were true, but we both know it isn't, we both know you're full of shit at every level in this thread, and we both know I won't play along....so?

My employer pays 100% of my premiums. I'm not dependent on government to give me health insurance.
