You know it's ok to admit you're wrong. Just like it's ok to admit you're not a libertarian.
the lp was formed in the 70's with a more conservative libertarian style than that of europe.
but you keep pretending you know what youre talking about.

Except you want to compel others via taxes. You play the emoti Nap "people are starving" card to justify favoring other people paying more...however, your convictions have their limits. I'm guessing you won't sacrifice much personally for them. Others can take that burden for you. Sure feels good to be for the little guy with no food, though. Amirite?
yeah, i think people that make money off of a capitlaist system designed to make people money, should front the majority of the tax bill of the country that allows them to thrive.
i know its super unfair in your opinion for rich people to pay to support the system they make their money in, but i disagree

God you liberals have no common sense or sense of humor. Machine, a liberal, was making fun of republicans saying people should leave if they don't like it here.
Did you really not get that?

You think they aren't already supporting the "system"?

quote:you pay higher wages to low income people for the same work, inflation occurs, the low wage people are almost immediately back in the same position, and the middle income people now make less relative to what things cost
Regardless, pay higher wages and low income workers will earn enough to pay taxes.
This is a fundamental difference between right and left thinking on income tax policy.

What are you talking about? The rich drive on same roads, have same police protection, same military protection, etc that all other americans have.

Ahhhh. And we get to the crux of it. It isn't about the poor starving people at all. We have already determined your convictions towards them are ancillary at best. It is about envy of those who make more than you. It is distrust of a "capitalist system".
In reality, it is ignorance and inexperience.
I do give you credit. You have the virtue signaling and the talking points...but I don't think you are disingenuous. I generally like your posts, though I disagree often.

Let's make the cost of living lower for the poor by mandating that businesses charge higher prices for people as their income rises
We can cut the cost of rent, food, etc for poor people by large amounts by making richer people pay higher prices for their food, housing, etc.

Leave it to a liberal to slang derogatory terms for people much less fortunate as them as an insult. Speaks volumes.
