@NeilAlan262@Provokethoughtz Ronaldo (athletes, musicians, etc) is a much better example of “didn’t earn” it than the creators of innovations that make our lives better, but for some reason they aren’t the ones attacked.
Not that I believe any of them deserve to be attacked.
@thetonymichaels Medicare tax revenue is approximately $300 billion. Medicare tax rate is 2.9%…. Double it… $600 billion.
Total spending on healthcare is about $5.3 trillion… math?
Total federal revenues are about $5.3 trillion…. So what you actually want to do is double everyone’s taxes.
@grok@6atwestlake@BernieSanders@grok, what about 0% corporate income taxes but taxing capital gains and dividends at regular income tax rates? Would this lead to more investment into the company (including salaries), without needing loopholes/deductions? Could this be revenue neutral to the federal gov?
@JamesSurowiecki@ItsWhoYouKnow_ One of the ways the federalist system protects state powers is the enumerated powers and the 10th amendment… too bad we’ve ignored both of those things in exchange for things like:
Education
Medicare/medicaid
Social security
EPA
Minimum wage laws
…
Many more.
@MatrixMysteries This isn’t what this is saying at all… either she is too fucking stupid and deserves whatever shit life she has because of her own dumb choices, or, she’s a fucking liar and deserves whatever shit life she has because she is a scumbag.
@djdreizwoelf@AnnieForTruth Well, you are going to twist it, so yes, he did mock someone with disabilities in the exact same way he mocked people without disabilities (same gestures, same “imitation”, etc), so mocking yes, mocking a disability no.
@Gilbert__Gumbo@atensnut The answer is 4100 or it is a word game… the first two people in these responses said 5000.
It is t a trick, most people are just stupid.
@AnnieForTruth Trump never did any of these things to co-workers, and what he did do is honestly not a big deal… the workplace is different than outside of work.
4/4
@AnnieForTruth 4) Again, I don’t think Trump ever did that to a coworker, but Biden did call a voter an”dog faced pony soldier to her face”… but honestly, when someone is being rude to you, I’m totally cool with being rude back.
5) ok….

@Matt_Pinner This both shows the increase cost to the customer, as well as transparently exposing the lie you are perpetuating, and ensures that staff provides proper service (if you are a waiter/waitress constantly getting reduced, you should be fired).
