We think Republicans vote in mind-boggling ways that keep the rich 1%, which includes plenty of Democrats, rich at the cost of the middle class (they also make poor people poorer by gutting social programs). They believe in an economic system that makes poor people richer when rich people get tax breaks. Liberals don't think you're rich. They think you're stupid.
I'd like to see the 1% get taxed up the ass, but that's not an option. Democrats have proven that they're not going to do it either.
Don't look now Alpha, but you sound like a democrat.
I want the top taxed similar to the post WW2 tax rates that built the middle class.
But no, our POLITICIANS are not the ones preventing higher taxes on billionaires.
AGAIN, you fail to look at history, and are STUCK in a short term bubble.
If always letting the rich do what they want worked, and less regulation worked, there would never have been a Great Depression, or Bush's recession.
REAGAN unwittingly started our pay gap explosion by starting the era of deregulation. The GOP has controlled that narrative since. The only thing our politicians can be accused of is being held hostage by the GOP. Our voter apathy in that 36 years in midterms also has not helped.
Democrats DO NOT want Castro's Cuba or Stalin's Russia.
We want FDR's New Deal.
You have been suckered by the GOP into taking the social issues as a distraction that they are fucking over even their own supporters.
And why cant we tax the fuck out of the rich? All that takes is putting more butts in congress willing to do that.
I would say if you think the GOP will do that is bullshit.
