@spruce112358 saidNobody except the billionaires who get richer every year.
Debt of only $2.9 trillion? Amateurs. 😆
Nobody has any money.
@AThousandYoung saidWell. First, we have to get rid of the capital gains tax because IT'S A TAX!!! GET RID OF IT!!!
Nobody except the billionaires who get richer every year.
And then we lower interest rates to create a FUUKINAWESOME bubble!
I think... yeah... I think that'll do'er. 😆
@AThousandYoung saidImpossible to stop that.
Nobody except the billionaires who get richer every year.
@AThousandYoung saidWhat exactly is abject poverty ?
No it isn’t. The billionaires and the abject poverty of today were caused by right wing tax cuts.
@Rajk999 saidInability to shelter oneself, eating food provided by charity, exposed to violence and diseases that are normally easy to control by avoiding sick people but because of homelessness and anti loitering laws they are concentrated together and germs spread easily.
What exactly is abject poverty ?
Yes I know there are people worse off in the world but the USA has this idea that it is better than South Sudan. We are not interested in attaining equal levels of poverty as the most wretched places on Earth.
@AThousandYoung saidWhen I said "what exactly", I meant what is the $$$ income that people are considered poor or like in your expression, 'abject poverty'. Is there such a thing as the poverty line in the US? If so what is it?

@Rajk999 saidI don’t know. You can look up those numbers yourself if you want. When I used the phrase I meant what I just said I meant.

@AThousandYoung saidSo using your expression and description, do those people you describe pay taxes?
I don’t know. You can look up those numbers yourself if you want. When I used the phrase I meant what I just said I meant.
@AThousandYoung saidSo how did the right wing tax cuts cause abject poverty?
Other than sales taxes, no.
@Rajk999 saidBecause the billionaires are using government muscle to compete with the poor for resources and are not paying for these services with taxes.
So how did the right wing tax cuts cause abject poverty?
If the Right can manage it they will start taxing the poor with a flat tax on top of this.
