I'm not sure I can imagine a bigger gaping vagina than you. And L O L at leftists pretending to not be corporate stooges. Everything you support is supported by the biggest corporations in the world.

So like, what do you think we should do so as not to be "corporate stooges?" What policy are you advocating for?


Why do I need to be advocating for a particular policy? And why are you asking me in the way a tween would?

Your question doe nothing to address Spleen's bullshite. IF there is a party of corporate America, it's the left and it's not close.

You’re right. We should replace those policies with more government taxation and spending that benefits high dollar interests even more than the current structure.

How to not be a corporate stooge: don't mandate companies, through the overstep of executive action, do the bidding of your political party.

Glad to see the level of delusion it takes to be a lefty. (although I'm sure you won't identify as anything other than a moderate centrist)

More than half our voters don't have an IRA or 401k nor will they ever inherit one. They don't own a home or business. They pay an effectice 0% tax rate and some even get $ back they never contributed. And, they've been told their whole lives those that do have those things are evil. We need voting reform so those sucking the governmemt tit cannot keep voting themselves a raise through increased taxation.

In all honesty, I'd love to hear the basis for your support for a 40% income tax.

I guess if some shite like this ever passed then having a retirement account for your kids would be pointless as well as having a large 401k or etc. To pass on. you'd be better off buying them all houses and assets. Or hell even physical gold.

Republicans aren't in a position to upset their donors so all this "you are the corporatist ones lulz" is just unproductive drivel

making death a taxable event is just so absurd I don't even know where to start. That's the most fundamental taxation without representation example there is. Hey, you died so you can't defend yourself, we'll take a portion of your assets


Meh. I totally agree the corporate tax rate hikes in the bill will directly impact consumers and are bad. But if there’s any part of this I wouldn’t complain about it’s the inheritance provision. It impedes the development of an aristocracy via inheritance, and only applies to people inheriting literally millions of dollars that they didn’t actually work for. I’ll save my tears for someone besides the trust fund babies.

I honestly don’t have a strong opinion on what the top tax rate should be. I’m more calling out the Pearl clutching that happens when some wealthy a-hole that wouldn’t piss on anyone here if they on fire May have to pay more in taxes. The same wealthy a-hole that donates to political candidates and has direct access to them to lobby for their personal benefit.

Like my dad always said, I’m much closer to being in the poor house than I am being in the big mansion on the hill.

Could have just stopped right here. Every thread you come up with this weak arse cop out. Next time save everyone the hassle and keep your bleeding to yourself.
