@PNWConservative We don’t have a tax problem. We have a tax write off problem. Do away with all write off’s. Tax write off’s incentivize mal-investment, empower politicians and lobbyist.
@omgsidewalks Capitalism has lifted more people out of poverty than any other system. There is no economic system where everyone gets rich. Only ones where almost everyone is equally poor.
@SenSanders Medicare for all should only cover in hospital admissions. People should pay out of pocket for everything else. If you increase the demand “free healthcare” the demand will far outpace the supply.
@CoachRolfes It’s a portable, permission-less, non centralized, fixed supply that becomes more rare overtime, it’s the most powerful network on earth. Worth having a little bit if the world ever gives it the respect it deserves.
@ClayTravis People are trying to do on one income what people have been doing on two for the last 50 years. Plus add in all the extra things that didn’t exist 50 years ago. The differences in what money can buy now leave people very envious.
@TheRobertBshow Two incomes meant way bigger houses and building regulation got out of control causing prices to go up. If Juan and Pablo didn’t come across the border to build cheaper USA would have been even less affordable.
@jeremyct Social security invests in US treasury bonds because of this the cost of servicing debt stays cheap and is better for the economy. Without 100s of billions going into treasury bonds rates would skyrocket causing companies to pay higher amount for debt lowering stock prices.
@BeeGault8@SteveOnSpeed All of those examples are state controlled or are fees charged on utility bill. Not a tax. Property tax is mostly made up of school, parks, local county and community projects. People continue to vote to fund more of these projects and then complain when bill comes due.
@SteveOnSpeed In the age of McMansions I can’t think of a better asset class to tax to pay for local services and schools. And yes everyone should pay it. Even renters have it built into their rent payment.
@GavinNewsom He makes a good point when mentioning low wages are subsidized by the government in welfare benefits so corporations can make record profits. No republican should be proud of that.
@marc02200 If it reaches $1T market cap by 2030 that woudl be a 20x in 4 years would be the most of us could hope for. Most valuable company maybe 2035? Nvidia is currently $5T.
@tokyo_111 Sell the kids. That saves daycare and groceries may even be able to downsize house. Potential $4,000 monthly savings! Dave Ramsey has become soft on his advice.
@Rabadash2 False. No one should be forced to sell an investment. I do think you shouldn’t be allowed to borrow against it. Should be based on cash on hand or monthly income to get cheap financing.
