A question for Americans. Which of these two tax plans sounds better to you?

Not being abysmally stupid, the first one makes a bit more sense to me. But those in lower tax brackets who are still voting Republican are clearly not that bright to begin with. Voting rich while living poor.

Naturally, I prefer Biden's tax plan.

I'd make some tweaks. No capital gains on the sale of your primary residence, for example.

But, by and large, it's a decent plan.

I assume this is a rhetorical question. The first approach would be far better for the nation.

There really is no GOP plan. This is the Rick Scott, plan. Here's what Mitch McConnell said about it:


Rick Scott is trying to pin the criticism on the "militant left", but when did Mitch McConnell, and all the other GOP'ers who criticized his plan, are militant leftists.

Scott want to ensure that ALL households pay at least $100 in income taxes. This would leave families making about $54,000 or less with more than 80 percent of the tax increase. The democrats are using this heavily in advertising, but Scott is sticking with his strategy: blame the militant left for the criticism.

I heard Mitch McConnell was upset with Scott for releasing this plan.

I don't know. The first plan sounds way better, but the people proposing the second plan say "WOKE!" a lot, so it's a coin toss.

The answer to why so many will opt for the second is explained in your explanation of Russian Propaganda which the GOP has adopted.

It's obviously the first one, but it's almost always the poor and middle class that get the shaft while the rich get the breaks. 🤷

I'm not in the states, but the second plan is the one that'll get voted in!

The middle class and poor need to
be punished for not working hard enough! Give them a tax break on boot straps!!!

You think it'd be an easy answer, but get ready to hear things like "bootstrap" and "No one helped me" and "I work for what they take from me with my full permission and thanks." Well, that how I hear the last.

I understand why bad guys keep hitting up the same fools; it's a business model. What I've never been able to comprehend or have explained to me in a way that makes sense it why the very people being most fleeced, most taken advantage of, most trod over, are the very same people to sing the praises of the soulless people doing the damage. Is it the attention they crave? Is it feeling like they're part of something, even if it's grease for the cogs? I honestly don't know.

The richest entities on earth are the same entities that stay so by taking even more from us. When you have a heavy pack, you let the biggest, strongest shoulder more duty - it help ensures you all get to your destination. When you have corporations who can shoulder so much more societal upkeep through an excess of finances, you utilize it. Particularly when people are dying of need every single day in the shadow of this great flag. So yeah, I choose option 1.

Interesting minute or two.

First one.

Plan 1

The first plan

They should cut their own pay, stop waisting my money, over tax themselves

are you surprised?

Only a complete idiot would vote for the second one.

I am now awaiting the flood of idiots downvoting my comment.

Both will still fuck the working class
