This is a standard conservative economics talking point they use to justify corporate tax cuts, saying the savings will trickle down to workers. Anyone trying to say direct taxes are the same as indirect taxes is selling trickle down snake oil.

It's a regressive tax being sold with a whole lot of

to not only con middle class people into thinking they aren't going to be footing the bill for a UNIVERSAL PROGRAM but also setting up a system that's easily gamed by the people she's saying will.

It's a "regressive" tax on corporations, not on actual people. By conflating the two, you're doing the bidding of massive corporations like Amazon or Walmart with majority low-wage workers. Just because the workforce of a corporation is low-wage doesn't mean the corporation is poor and in need of tax relief. We all know how little these corporations are actually paying in taxes. Amazon and Chevron and other corporate giants pay practically nothing in taxes and you're gonna turn around and ask the working class to pitch in more instead? Make the fukking rich pay their fair share.

And btw Bernie's 4% flat tax on income actually IS a regressive tax on the working class. :coffee:

The amount of wealth being captured and hoarded by the 1% and corporate interests is staggering, I agree.

The voter who asks Joe the question says she got a call... probably from Bernie's campaign army of volunteers. :mjgrin:

Joe has to disown the video of him agreeing with Paul Ryan on Social Security cuts and claim its doctored. And Joe is endorsing expansion of Social Security by lifting the cap on taxable income for Social Security. There's a bill in Congress that 200+ Democrats have co-signed doing just that...

This is going to be interesting to see how the phone banking operation is going to impact things. Bernie's team has made over 4 million calls already this month.


He said cut Veterans benefits too. What piece of human excrement.

So Bernie sending around doctored videos about Biden, fresh off of lying about saying a woman couldn’t be President? :francis:

Problem is that those videos in full context would still show him saying the same thing in the same context. Center-Left Trump isn't that great a candidate, breh. :francis:

One video was cut short. There's literally dozens of others on CSPAN and YouTube of Biden pushing for Social Security cuts.

And we shouldn't forget about 2011-2013

Lacks context.


Almost all of this is based on the conclusions of the Bowles Simpson commission.
