Yeah, Buffet doesn't mind if income taxes are raised since he games the system by getting paid in shares.

Kinda, but what if Trump!’s tariff response initiates a lowering of tariffs on the other side?

I can’t speak for all, but most of us that wouldn’t mind paying more taxes want to see more services provided by the government in exchange, like more affordable health insurance, more affordable colleges, better schools, and the like.

Our government is already not paying for the services it provides now. Don’t you think we should get revenues to equal expenditures before w depend more

We already have enough military weapons to destroy the entire world many times. Perhaps it is time to start spending our tax revenue on smarter things, like rebuilding the infrastructure, and improving our quality of life. I will be the first to admit that I didn’t think many of those jobs were coming back, and the promise that they might come back is great, but the high cost of healthcare is not going to go away til the problem is addressed. Many will say that Obama worsened the situation, but it would be nice if the GOP would atleast acknowledge the problem.

Most Prog/Dims are dedicated to their ideolgy, I'm sure most Prog/Dims are remitting their tax savings from Trump's Tax bill back to the government.

What is more than 0 percent? You willing to pay 0.5? How noble.

I am retired. I paid taxes my entire life. A lot more than 0%.

Yes, kinda like a single payer. The way most of the rest of the civilized world operates. I guess you are a fan of how the health insurance lobbyists work in our country?

The rest of the world puts a tariff on our exports.
Time to negotiate better deals.

Health insurance is a problem for sure but single payer is not the answer. I’m case you haven’t been paying attention the NHS is falling apart. GB is contemplating banning doctors from practicing privately because medical providers are realizing how much of a scam it is.

Funny how clowns like you think all democrats/liberals don’t pay any taxes. The states with the highest earnings per capita are mostly blue. Live on in ignorance if it makes you feel better.

Most of the lefties that say they'd pay more in taxes, are just virtue signaling. They don't even pay taxes.

Please be honest. You wouldn't mind other people paying more in taxes so you could receive entitlements you have not earned.
If you want to pay more in taxes, you are certainly free to do so. Why don't you?

An entitlement is actually something that one pays into, thus the word “entitlement”. I am entitled to it because I paid into it. The ones that want to change the “social” programs have also twisted the meaning of the word. Social security and Medicare are very much entitlement programs, as they should be.

Liberals want everything feel-good but won't pay a penny for it.
They prefer overseas slave labor, and brown and yellow people dealing with their pollution.
They want to punish the Baptists who frowned on their homosexuality, by taking away their factory jobs.
The Democrats continue to dig their hole deeper in the Rust Belt.
