$2 Trillion Deficit

$2 Trillion Deficit

How about going after the 50% bottom half who pay no taxes.

You've been corrected on this many times. Some of those 50% in the bottom half of taxpayers are the rich people. You think they should be able to not pay taxes ever? There's another group that doesn't have any money, so it's silly to think you can get the $2 trillion from them?

You say get rid of ...[text shortened]... housands of people fired, and the deficit will still be $2 trillion.

What else you got for ideas?
You miss my point about saving money. getting rid ofUSAID, (Sonhouse tried to block) and bringing on the doge project, are just examples of things that can be done. We have a long way to go, Biden really f’d it up. Getting rid of the Biden illegals would save money. Di you realize how much money they have cost us. But you proooootteesters will not allow us to run them the hell out of our country.
So you can’t have it both ways. If you will step aside and let Trump do his job, as he is trying to do with the illegal alien invaders, maybe the corner will get turned.
You F’n hyenas have been on his ass for 11 years and look still what he has done. Genius. And he’s got 2 1/2 more years, he can still do it …..you let your TDS ruin your common sense.

Because the tax code is not only trying to “reward work.” It is also trying to encourage investment, saving, and long-term capital formation.

A’s income is new income being created through labor right now. B’s stock sale comes from money that was already earned, taxed, risked, and tied up in productive investment for years. C’s inheritance is wealth that was ofte ...[text shortened]... ns, and retirement accounts, alll of it, depend on. Geez

HELP ME RHONDA!!! I need MORE Rhonda!!
Your arguments are spurious.

If I pay my plumber $500 should he not pay any taxes on that because I already paid taxes on my income? That's logically indistinguishable from your argument and just as stupid.

The truth is that elites run the country and the tax code is set.up to favor them and disfavor workers.

Look mate, I don't like taxes but this amount of debt is worse. Some people have ideas but you only like the ideas that don't work. The $2 trillion can be extracted from the wealthy without any impact on their incentive to keep trying to build equity.

Here is Liz Warren's proposal, which would bring in $3 trillion to close the budget gap. Where do you fall on the list?
...[text shortened]... 1 billion, and a 6% tax on the remaining $19 billion, for a total annual liability of $1.16 billion.
Socialism could hardly fly in the United States of America. The billionaires, of course, would leave as they have proven just by flipping from New York to Florida. They would not stop there.
Your girls are screaming socialist. Tell us that socialism works and then we can continue this discussion. Write about something that does not work. I don’t have the time.
It appears to me anyway, that you are continuing on with your mission here in the forum to talk us all into getting money from the Rich who create jobs and businesses and innovations and all of the other good stuff. This is the United States of America. Where are you writing from anyway? I have a feeling you are Shav in disguise. If you say you don’t believe in borders, I will know it’s Him.!!!!
I’m really not trying to laugh at or make fun of your socialist proposals like that woman Warren, I know you really believe in going to the bank where the money is, but I am not so sure I would associate myself with someone like her. She is a female Bernie Communist. You will not devolve into one I hope.

Curious though as an example… Why would America couple with 100,000 pay no taxes.? why would anybody in the United States of America not pay taxes?. Are they riding on the road that I pay for? Do you want to pay for their visits?
I have never seen a more dysfunctional conflicted group of people in my life and in all my classrooms as I have seen on this forum.


You and marauder write about socialism and about natural law……., None of which will ever come to Pass. Do you not think that is a bit of a waste of time? Some such as myself do not even know what you’re talking about.
Thank you very much.

Many of the rich people you idolize are not in the top 10% of taxpayers. Instead, the top 10% of taxpayers are the people who work for a living.

I think that needs to change. You call me a socialist extremist for that?

You cannot find $2 trillion in savings in the federal budget without severe cuts to Medicare or DoW. So, that's not happening. Now, you say the bottom 50% of earners should pay more taxes, and keep all the tax shelters in place for billionaires?

Sorry, man. Your position is a lot more extreme than mine.

Sorry that's just referring to the proposed federal wealth tax. I think it seems reasonable. Doesn't seem like socialism at all, the 2 cent tax on extreme wealth could be lowered to 1 cent and it would still make a big dent in this $2 trillion figure.

It's not helpful to just call all taxes socialism. As a reminder, deficits are inflationary and should not be run in perpetuity.

And thanks to you Climate Change will kill all of us.

If I had a time machine, I'd take you to 2100 to show you what kind of planet you're leaving for your descendants.

BS do you realize you have a record of posts saying nothing but that? But you know no one goes back and reads old posts, so I think you are safe.
For God's sake stop lying about people here.

You do this constantly.

And prop up the Dow Jones balloon.

I left out your nonsense analogies.

If I am successful you would punish me by making me pay more tax, I already pay the max. How much do you want, Bernie?

Punish?? You punish success.
No, you don't.

Don't make me laugh.
