    Results from this morning's NBC Poll

    Just goes to show how effective the right wing media is. When that is your only choice for information you are badly misinformed. These people live in a separate reality.

    Can you give me any reason why the top 50% shouldn't pay 85-90% of all taxes?

    Not if they want access to the largest consumer market in the world. It would just take a congress that supports We the People instead of their greedy rich donors.

    Can you give me any reason why the top 50% shouldn't pay 85-90% of all taxes?

    Well that is exactly what Trump did with his consumption (tarrif) tax. Only the wealthy elite propose a consumption or flat tax. They have no empathy for the plight of the working man or the poor. The wealthy have spent a lot of money to get the tax code written to favor them.

    Can you give me any reason why the top 50% shouldn't pay 85-90% of all taxes?

    Real annual GDP growth in the 1940's was 5.6% The middle class saw significant growth and broad prosperity between 1940 and the early 1970s, driven by factors like high productivity, government policies including the G.I. Bill and the Federal-Aid Highway Act, and increased homeownership...

    Florida to end vaccine mandates for children as state’s surgeon general likens them to ‘slavery’

    More MAGA stupidity! America taken many diseases out of our population with childhood vaccination. We have seen what happens with measles in an unprotected population. Do we really want to bring back the days of children dying of easily prevented diseases. Want your child dying of Whooping cough

    Commie: Trump is demanding government stakes in U.S. companies & a cut. Experts see similarities to state-managed capitalism.

    So the mob boss wants a cut of everyone's take. No surprise there. The surprise is how someone who thinks like this was ever elected President of the United States.

    Trump's tariffs will reduce deficit by $4 trillion

    So where is that tarrif money coming from. It is a consumption tax. So the poor and middle class get a tax increase while trump gives the wealthiest among us a tax cut. How republican is that?

    [W: #191] Trump says imports of wood products may pose national security threat to U.S.

    And you believe imported softwoods from Canada cost more? Might ask someone in the lumber business or a home builder about that. Prior to trumps tarrifs canadian lumber was cheaper and used to build millions of home in America. Now with trumps 35% tarrifs on Canadian lumber it is more expensive.

    The USA?

    Another great example of the effectiveness of right wing propaganda Playing on the fears of that poorly educated white working class American.

    The USA?

    I would say your crime map includes metropolitan areas where our population is concentrated. We all know inner city poverty, gangs and the drug trade are concentrated in these areas. Perfect formula for high crime rates. Locals know the parts of their area to avoid.

    The USA?

    Another example of how effective right wing propaganda is. Crime has been going down in America for decades. This is just more fear mongering by the right.
