So you don't pay for infrastructure through taxes and the billionaires aren't using methods such as loopholes to pay less got it.

None of what you just said matters. While both are true, so is the belief that raising taxes limits business growth.

He was prior to running for President, obviously as of now he isn't. He basically ran the country as an old school democrat though.

True but just using that logic why can't someone argue for even lower taxes? People act like this some new uncharted territory when businesses have done fine at similar tax rates.

Lol.

1.9 - 3 = still negative.

That is not balancing the books. That is wishing unicorns will crap out skittles.

We are a joke.

We have been arguing for lower taxes. As they were lowered commerce picks up, increasing wages, increasing spending, increasing overall amount of taxes for government to spend, they just get a smaller percentage.

That’s the thing, people that argue for lower and lower taxes know it’s economics isn’t a zero sum equation. The pie can grow and contract depending on what’s incentivized.

And again, we want to improve it. Do you have ANY faith that this spending bill will address this need? I don’t.

Why can’t they do something with the trillions of dollars we already pay them in taxes? Why must the have more, and more, and always more?

That’s a lot of people’s issue

Honestly cutting into our bloated military budget (we spend a shite ton on needless wars and random shite) and ending the drug war could help a good bit

And the question that nobody seems to be asking is how did it get this bad

There is absolutely waste in the military budget, but entitlements are the largest piece of the pie and are much more wasteful. You could argue a lot of military spending happens on R&D. That eventually has payback. What have we gotten for our increased investments in ever expanding entitlement programs?

you can show me chart after chart on why we need an corporate tax hike to pay for improving Infrastructure, but you’ll never be able to convince me this super Progressive administration will actually spend it on Infrastructure. And you know I’m right.

So of course everyone rolls their eyes when Biden announces a corporate tax hike: a) the Middle Class will take a hit one way or another b) hardly any of it will actually be spent on Infrastructure.

And on top of that, there’s douchebags like you defending it only because it came from this administration, not because you GAF about our Infrastructure.
