Here's Why The Right Comes After AOC So Hard.......

On another thread I commented about the right being scared of AOC, and Chewing, like the simple minded twit he is replied with something typically insightful like "Duh, why would they be scared of that horseface?" Yes, I know an expected brilliant take from him. If he had any semblance of the ability to analyze the attitudes of society at large, he'd understand that yelling "Socialism!!!" at anyone who dares to critique income inequality as a way to shut them up doesn't work anymore. Even REPUBLICANS (though not their leaders) waking up, as recent polls indicate.

[B]But polling suggests that when it comes to soaking the rich, the American public is increasingly on board.

Surveys are showing overwhelming support for raising taxes on top earners, including a new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll released Monday that found [I]76 percent[/I] of registered voters believe the wealthiest Americans should pay more in taxes. A recent Fox News survey showed that 70 percent of Americans favor raising taxes on those earning over $10 million

When you ask poor and middle class people if those richer than them should have their money taken away they tend to say yes?

Wait here....let me go get my

don't expect a serious response. many of the MAGA FAM on ISH are mentally ill (starface) or intellectually challenged(fatrickchewing). only certain individuals like rufus or hawker are worth the discussion.

A poll from Politico? Must be true!



No one will be elected on a platform that has the government taxing upwards to 70% of your income. Even if they are filthy rich. It just sounds Anti-American.


AOC is a joke though. The only reason Fox News talks about her on a daily basis is because they want to convince the viewer that the entire Democrat party thinks like her. The crazy thing is, it's looking like most of the party does.

Don't you get tired of being wrong? Of being called an idiot,and proving it? Is it a troll? Are you parodying MAGATs?

FOX NEWS idiot. Again, FOX NEWS. So like I said:

Look at what's going on in New York right now. There is a mass exodus.


You people will never win. Book it.

I don't feel that the rich should have their money 'taken' away per se. But should they pay more in taxes? Im down for that.

Some of these rich people could be taxed 50% and they'd still have enough money to last them generations. Some of them hoard it for generations and generations to come.

Is it fair that they give more?

Some will argue that they benefit the most from our services, they also have manipulated tax rules in their favor.

There should be different tiers of course, not just one broad tax bracket.

It's not so much about taking away as it's about 'sharing'. I've always been thought that it's noble to share when you can.

Yes, we know.

[QUOTE=Hardtop Hero]Yes, we know.[/QUOTE]


Your argument is a 70% tax on the rich. This will NEVER happen.


So come up with a different number, otherwise your lazy ass will have to keep looking for a better job.

I work in finance, and work with private equity firms. Many of my clients are execs within pe firms, who I meet with, see at cocktail hours, etc. and will privately admit that the rich get away with far too much. I've met several who are Bernie supporters.

Also, I never said what MY argument was. I simply pointed out that all indicators are that the overwhelming majority of the American public now supports taxing the rich much more highly, including 54% of all Republicans.

Your response, in typical Chewing fashion, is not any sort of reasonable, well thought out rebuttal but simply "na na boo boo you'll never gonna get it and now i'm gonna plug my fingers into my ears and go lalalalala"

between the great depression and the rise of reagonomics, [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post%E2%80%93World_War_II_economic_expansion"][B]aka the long boom[/B][/URL], taxing the filthy rich bigly was as 'murrican as apple pie, chewy.

the trickle down hustlers know her policy proposals (at least in terms of progressive taxation) are favored by the vast majority of voting eligible citizens.

even the dirt poor repubs who've been getting bamboozled since the early 80s are starting to (slowly) finally figure out that the promised trickle down isn't coming.

they want to see 'murrica become truly great again. long boom style. :crazysam:

gotta nip that in the bud before it spreads. so they sic hannity, bow tie carlson, etc on her.

Usually folks who go into extensive detail as to what they do at work are full of shit half the time, but good for you nonetheless.

I guarantee you if you poll those same people if they currently know what the tax rate is, at least 80% of them (if not higher) won't have a clue.

So of course people want the rich to be taxed more, but it's a moot point if none of these people know what the current rates are. Maybe then will they realize how insane our government is and how much money they spend at our cost.

I don't want you backpedaling though. That's for cowards. I want you firm on that 70% number. That's your number and you're sticking to it.

I didn't go into "extensive" detail, lol. I mentioned it in rebuttal to your remark about my "lazy ass" having to get another job. Additionally, my work has given me insight into this arena as well.

I also didn't backpeddle anything nitwit. If ultimately a 70% marginal tax rate on people making $10 mil is implemented, I'll have no problem with it, as will most of the populace. However, I'd also like to see what some other proposals are in this arena.

And a coward is you around black people in real life. You'd never say the reckless shyt you do on here to someone's face because you know what would happen.

And lol at you rewriting history. It was a f*** base tenet of the Republican party that you don't raise taxes. Grover Norquist ring a bell? Now all of a sudden it's, "of course" 54% of Republicans want taxes to be raised. You're so full of shit. The reality is that it's dawning on even your fellow dimwits that 40 years of trickle down has not been good for the average citizen. That the Trump tax cut for the wealthy (after he promised to raise taxes on the wealthy on the campaign trail) was a farce.
