explaining that if you earn 0 to $75,000 a year, you would only pay 10% or 15% in income tax.

So she wants poor people to start paying taxes? Many people under 40k dont' pay anything, so perhaps I could support raising their taxes.

The poor pay a disproportionate amount of tax through excise taxes, but thats not the point.

point is...this clown cant see that she is raising costs on the poor and middle class and making everyone equally miserable.

It is untrue that poor people do not pay taxes. That is why democrats created the lottery specifically to tap that market

Most families under $50k pay squat.

Singles under $35k pay the equivalent of nothing.

The vast majority of income taxes are paid by those between $75k and $200k. At least 90%.
