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?

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.

Republicans don’t care about the American people but man they sure know their supporters- so easily manipulated,
