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

President Biden wants to raise taxes on the wealthiest 0.01%.
That would bring in nearly a trillion dollars into the federal government to pay for vital programs.

OR

Would you rather go with the GOP plan as authored by Senator Rick Scott?
He wants to reduce taxes on the rich and raise taxes by $4500.00 for those families making $50k.

Which do you prefer?

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

“Let me tell you what would not be a part of our agenda,” Mr. McConnell told reporters in early March. “We will not have as part of our agenda a bill that raises taxes on half the American people, and sunsets Social Security and Medicare within five years.”

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.

@Northwest I don't trust Mitch McConnell. At least Rick Scott is transparent. He's not even hiding his hatred for struggling families
