Or we fix some shit at home first.

I'm a climate idiot. Does this somehow relate to ice ages, I wonder?

Those children are guilty of choosing to be born into the wrong family, after all. /s

But literally how!? The politicians who control tax law are in control. Isn't this a paradox?

JFC. Yes, both problems exist, and the barrier to taxing the rich are the cunts in control. Cut them out, then the money will go where it needs to and we have greater control over who gets taxed what.

But how!? Magic!? The politicians who control tax law protect them! 😱

I'm all for taxing the rich, but I'm even more for rooting out the corruption that enables the rich to become the monsters they are. This isn't bootlicking, its holding the opinion that the priorities are out of order.

Thanks for sharing your perspective.

Safe to assume they boom, otherwise we would have invaded long ago.

And so the hawkish death cycle continues!

Stabbing in the dark with misattribution isn't helping...it's closer to being what you claim me to be: an agent if misinformation.

Then why not start with the root of corruption? If the end result is the same, why not go after the politicians that enable the rich to ease taxes to begin with?

Doesnt it make more sense to root out the corruption before feeding them cash?

Any concern for retaliatory strikes? Guess the poor needn't worry about going hungry if they're dust, right?

Thanks for sharing a perspective that I hadnt considered. I certainly agree that corporate greed is detrimental and plays a key role in governmental corruption.

Agreed!

I think that was part of my thinking with my hot take.

I'm all for the rich paying their fair share, but maximizing what we already have is important too.

Did you just manage to roll China with your cyber attribution dice?

Oh no, I've been labeled a coward for an unpopular opinion on

tax policy

I'm all for taxing the rich, and paying taxes, so long as the funds go to programs that don't blow up children in foreign countries.

Another constructive comment adjusted by view on the matter.

Now this is a policy I can get behind.

Admittedly, I thought these percentages were different.

Not above admitting when I'm wrong.
