          Biden's energy secretary doesn't deny tax hikes to pay for massive infrastructure plan will 'hit the middle class hard'

          Oh, good

          Secretary of Energy Jennifer Granholm didn't deny claims over the weekend that tax hikes associated with the Biden administration's more than $2 trillion infrastructure plan could have a ruinous economic effect on middle-class Americans.




          During an interview on Sunday, CNN host Jake Tapper confronted the energy secretary on the issue, citing concerns among Republicans and moderate congressional Democrats about the economic impact of raising taxes.
          In the lead-up to his question, Tapper specifically referred to a recent Wall Street Journal editoriallaundry list of progressive political prioritieslargest tax hike in almost three decades. One of the major changes getting media attention is a proposed increase of the corporate tax rate from 21% to 28%.



          In response, Granholm remarkably didn't raise an objection to the specific claim. Rather, she dodged the question by claiming the administration's corporate tax rate figure is "fair" and a "reasonable middle."

          "You recall that just a few years ago the tax rate for corporate taxes was 35%," Granholm said. "When Donald Trump passed his corporate and tax cuts for the wealthy package, he dropped it to a point that nobody was even asking for, which was 21%. So what Joe Biden is saying is, let's put it to a reasonable middle. Let's put us in line with other industrial nations, which is 28%."
          The energy secretary then hit back at criticisms by saying, "If you don't like this, then come and tell us how you would pay for it."
          "Of the polling that's been done out there on this, more people support paying for infrastructure rather than racking up deficits than not, and that includes Republicans," she argued. "People know that you can't just continue to spend without paying for it. And so what Joe Biden wants to do is to do it in a fair way."
          Earlier in the interview, Granholm made it clear that the administration would be perfectly happy to move the legislation through Congress without a single Republican vote, much like Democrats did with Biden's $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package.

            John Oliver thinks he can get away with lying about Donald Trump and the national debt. We won't let him! Also, Charles Barkley made a commonsense statement on race that pissed off liberal Twitter. Joe Biden was busted cheating during his press conference. And the truth about Pete Buttigieg and his bike.

                ... so if you read what you posted you now understand that raising the Corporate tax rate from 21% to the global average of 28% to pay for proposed infrastructure improvements is very reasonable. No ruinous tax on the middle class is described.

                          People who receive Social Security, Supplemental Security Income or Railroad Retirement benefits could see their checks deposited in the coming days.
