‘We have to increase taxes on the wealthy’: Steve Bannon

In President Trump’s house, there are many mansions. You’re going to see a fight. You’re going to see a fight from the populist right. If you look at 2024 as just a win for Trump, he’ll be here for four years, and we’ll figure out what happens after, then you don’t think things have to change. You think we just need the tax cuts. If you look at Trump as a historic figure, as I do — Washington, Lincoln and Trump, right? — then this is the age of Trump, and Trump is a personification and manifestation of deeper forces in the world and in the United States.
Populism is two things. It has a non-material aspect, which is anti-elite, and in that, a redemptive, almost kind of spiritual quality — what we call the sovereign will. On a practical basis, it’s economic policies, tax policies, industrial policies, and national security policies that make the citizen the actual focus of the government.
Laffer Curve disagrees!!

How about we get rid of worthless government programs and cut spending across the board? Maybe EVERYONE would get a tax break then. Might also consider not giving tax refunds to people who didn't pay any f***ing taxes as well.

The slippery slope gets steeper.

Where in your quote does he say to raise taxes on the wealthy? Why do you post fake headlines? Such behavior should be banworthy.

I managed a large group entry level positions filled with many single mothers for a few years. The all talked about how they would let unemployed men list their children as dependents so that the men would get the deduction on their tax return and split it with them. This was openly discussed and shared like a big end of the year sale. Infuriating.

If it would go toward paying down the debt I'd have no problem with it. But it won't.

It is the headline in the link. I am so sorry I did not point that out.

Now, of the four and half trillion dollars in revenue we get, how much is from corporate taxes? Only $500 billion. Since 2008, $200 billion has gone into stock repurchases. If that had gone into plants and equipment, think what that would have done for the country. I’m for a dramatic increase in corporate taxes. We have to increase taxes on the wealthy.
Its in the article.
Bannon is a Berrnie Bro.

In the very least, I figured I had a headline reader!

90% of the people who post here want to be told what their opinion should be, instead of actually reading and learning...

Taxing them more so the government can waste all of it? No thanks

I’m actually in favor of this.
If the leftist billionaires want to use their wealth to destroy America, then let’s take it from them.

Sounds like the French Revolution that led to Communism.

This right here.
I would add that we need to eliminate/make massive cuts to ALL foreign aid..

No, it doesn’t. The idea has other issues. But that isn’t one.
