The Stupidity from Ocasio-Cortez

[Back]

As for 70-80% tax on the rich, even when we had the highest tax rate ever, only about .0005% paid it. Everyone else had write offs.

On top of that, even with all that money, it won't even make a scratch in all the bullshit she is trying to promote. If they taxed the top 3% 100% of their money, it wouldn't be close. You'd basically have to tax EVERY person at exorbitant rates, so we can all be poor together.... And it still wouldn't all be paid for.

What "bullshit" do you think she is trying to promote and how much money do you think will be required to fund it?

Translation: I don't know anything about this and rather than do any research I'll just ask you what you think then compare it against what cnn told me.

ROFL. Easy tiger. Maybe I just want to know what he thinks?

Nobody gave a fuck about her dancing video. That all comes from some random news source with an anonymous source that said they didn't like it.

Math is hard and stuff.

Big ideas mean big commitments. Those big ideas are to benefit all Americans. We've come together before to tackle and conquer some big issues. This isn't any different. We find ways to spend trillions on defense, we can find ways to spend trillions on healthcare for everyone.

I've read that price tag includes what we already spend, about $36 trillion, so we are really only talking about $4 trillion over 10 years. Doable.

I've also read that deficit financing is used to fund big costly projects like wars so why not social programs? But to be honest thats waaaay out of my understanding.
