I think if you repeat the content of a Trump tweet virtually verbatim you're biased. Trump is a schmuck.

And he is actually a serial liar - so there is that.

I think we should charge the wealthiest 1% a 20% wealth tax and redistribute it to the lowest 40% and then white trash won't have to fight with immigrants over the scraps the 1% leaves them.

I still don't see how this isn't fixed by correcting the tax code...

It is true that I disagree with everything you say. That's because everything you say is wrong. You are constantly throwing out ridiculously incorrect assumptions as facts and demanding that everyone agree with them.

It's also true that I perceive you as a hate filled bigot who considers extermination of immigrants something he would consider, although only "in extremis," whose perception of just about everything is distorted by hate and enthusiastically lives in an alternative reality bubble that constantly reinforces your bias of hate.

I absolutely stand by both of those things because they are absolutely true.

My wife would tell me it doesn't actually do any good to throw truth in people's faces, that it only makes me feel good but does not in fact convince anybody. Maybe I should show more empathy for the deep seated pain Nate is obviously in that makes him lash out at the world with hate. Maybe Nate's hate is driven by sexual abuse he suffered as a child that he is repressing and it comes out like this, or something equally awful that I would be more sympathetic to if I knew about it. If that's the case I'm sorry.

I can guarantee based on my interactions with you that my life is a lot more stable, happy and well-adjusted than yours.

i'd say, ban him. but its too much fun watching him throw temper tantrums like a 2 year old.

Says Mr. Banned From Every Other Board on RealGM. And watch the filter-evading insults and insults in general. Everyone. That is all for now.

Add to that - if we got the cost drivers of healthcare under control - wouldn't that allow us to help the poor as well (indirectly).

I like the idea of having a one-time large transfer that we do just once and then have a "wealth tax" of 1% after that.

Economically speaking you want to have the broadest tax base possible, like a VAT, to avoid disincentives, and then you just allocate tax revenue however, like we do now. Problem is VAT is regressive, so a luxury surtax would be "more fair" although definitely more distorting than a (clean) VAT.

Okay - so I can't go along with this. But the reasons don't have to do with fairness. It is the issue of liquidity as mentioned previously.

I am much for a fairer cleaner tax policy. One with no carveouts for individuals. But the income side is only half the battle. If our policies that drive healthcare and high education costs aren't contained - it matters not.

So for me - it would have to be a combination piece of legislation.

Tom Arnold is certainly milking that pic of him and Cohen for all it's worth, I take what he saying with a huge grain of salt

[JWizmentality]

I'm totally here for Trump officials being shamed in public. Human decency and democracy fighting back.
