      Everyone know governments increase debt. Yes.
      Wouldn't you rather have the debt increased and have something to show for it at the end, like new roads and bridges, instead of increasing the wealth of billionaires? Trump's debt increase went almost entirely to line his and other wealthy peoples pockets.

        I never worry about the rich because they're smart enough to take care of themselves. If you raise their taxes, you're only raising taxes on yourself because they're gonna raise the cost of food, utilities, lumber, whatever.

        Democrats are lying to the people. In one form or another, we're all gonna pay for Biden's massive spending bill. I think most Americans are too stupid to realize the shell game that they're playing.

          That's a ridiculous argument. How do you feel about a billionaire paying only $750 in taxes for a year?
          I just want your honest opinion on this one question.

            Let's get something straight and then I'll answer your question.


            There is NOTHING ridiculous about me saying that if you raise taxes on the rich that they're gonna turn around and raise your price at the grocery story, utility company, lumber yard, ect.


            Admit that I'm telling the truth and that there's nothing ridiculous about it or show where I'm wrong.

                  C'mon. Who do you think owns these corporations? And he's raising taxes on individual tax rates and for business.

                  If you raise their individual tax rate, they are gonna turn around and tax your food, electronics, ect.

                  Stop saying that I'm being ridiculous and admit that I'm telling the truth.

                      You're right. I'm very dumb. You should only respond to posts that are worthy of your superior intellect.

                            There are several possibilities.
                            1. Nothing cahnges and the corp. eats the increase
                            2. Prices go up and the consumer pays for the increase
                            3. The producer finds a way to manufacture the product cheaper and the price stays the same, or the price rises a little.

                              Well if EVERYONE follows your sage advice I guess that'll be your last post.
                              Biden says he won't let the COUNTRY get back to normal UNTIL 98% of citizens get fully vax'd.
                              FUCK BIDEN HE ISN'T OUR KING.

                                We'll play this out to it's logical conclusion. Okay?


                                In the past you have accused rich people of greed and said that that don't pay their fair share of taxes.


                                But now you're saying that they're gonna turn over a new leaf and eat the tax increase or find a way to make their product cheaper. Remember these are the same folk that you accuse of being greedy.


                                There's another possibility that we haven't talked about. They start laying off workers and/or replacing them with cheaper labor - illegal immigrants.
