Lol, is this dude a right winger? I just assumed lefty commie based on the rhetoric. Clearly we need to lower taxes on the rich to solve the problem.

Clearly we need to lower taxes on the rich to solve the problem.

This is what's literally been happening since the early '80s. So far it's not working out very well. And all those dipshits who want to roll back our country to the "Great Again" 1950's and 60's don't seem to realize that that is when we had the absolute highest tax rate on the wealthy in the country. It was at almost 90% marginal tax rate.

But no, you think what's holding them back from spending their massive wealth is that the government is taking too much right now. 🙄 What a joke.

Never ask a man his salary, a woman her age or a neo classical economist what tax breaks for the rich doesn't fix.
