Hillary Clinton will raise your taxes and is willing to say so

Bernie Sanders, avowed socialist that he is, has suggested hefty tax increases on just about everyone and everything to pay for the largess, which includes free health care and free college. But, as it turns out, Hillary Clinton is no slouch when it comes to raising taxes. Americans for Tax Reform estimates that the second President Clinton would hike taxes about $1 trillion over ten years. Clinton’s tax increases will not be used to close the deficit, but rather to pay for new programs

But only by a trillion dollars!

not only that but she has flat out declared she WILL come after our second amendment rights, and push through her gay agenda-

Whoever the GOP candidate is in the end, a non vote for them is a vote for losing our constitutional rights and for higher and higher taxes AND for crippling ‘climate change’ taxes, fines, and regulations which will drive prices of everything through the roof-

[[But only by a trillion dollars!]]

That’s only because they haven’t learned how to pronounce “Quintillion”

Mondale was willing to say so, too.

That and a buck will get you a cup of coffee and 13 electoral votes.

Raising taxes does not balance budgets. Amply demonstrated elsewhere, higher taxes REDUCE net revenue.

Cutting expenditures is much more effective as a strategy.

Increasing revenue while reducing expenditures works in every household that it is applied.

Bernie will raise taxes more.

Trump will raise import tariffs, but lower your taxes. That will put your fellow American back to work, so you don’t have to pay to support them. And since they are working they can help share the tax burden.

Have no fear! Our stalwart and courageous Republican representatives in Congress will make absolutely certain no new taxes are passed.

bwahahahaahahahahaha

The 45% that don’t pay any taxes are lovin it. Since they don’t own guns legally anyway, who needs a 2nd amendment?

[M Kehoe]

A trillion dollars here, a trillion dollars there. Pretty soon you’re talking about real money.

And they forgot to mention that according to a proposed new rule, 10% of all tax money will flow straight into Hillary’s pocket. That’s in addition to the money she will scarf in the usual ways.

[Bullish]

Programs? Programs?

“Whoever the GOP candidate is in the end, a non vote for them is a vote for losing our constitutional rights and for higher and higher taxes AND for crippling ‘climate change’ taxes, fines, and regulations which will drive prices of everything through the roof-”

For the frog in the pot on the stove (i.e. the average American productive citizen) the difference between voting for Hillary and voting for any GOPe is Hillary will turn the knob to the high heat position faster.

Clinton and Sanders seem to have forgotten the fate of Walter Mondale, the 1984 Democratic candidate, who promised to raise everyone’s taxes. For that promise and other reasons, Mondale lost 49 states to then-President Ronald Reagan, who went on to pass a tax simplification bill with the bipartisan cooperation of Congress. Specific promises to raise taxes has always been a political loser, which is why most Democrats try to shroud it in vague verbiage about “fairness.” It will be interesting to see how Clinton defends her tax increase proposals should she make it to the general election.

Repeat after me: 47% don't pay taxes. 47% don't pay taxes.

while things aren’t exactly rosy under republicans, we are not really in danger of losing our constitutional rights like we will with 4-8 more years of a democrat in office- dear leader has set the stage, he has defied the constitution, and done whatever the hell he wishes, and he’s not been stopped or held to account because of an asinine fear of being labeled a racist should they try- his term has served notice that a democrat can do whatever the hell they want and nooen will stop them because they are too timid to do so until he’s out of office- however, they will at the very least reverse much of what he did via his illegal executive orders, and with republicans back i n office, the country will send notice to them that IF they wish to remain in office, they have better damned well start protecting our constitutional rights-

The mood of the country is very angry these last few years- and thick skulled as the GOP may be- eventually it’s going to get through their thick skulls that THEY are the ones the country is angry at- I believe they are beginning to get the message- slowly- but there’s a long way to go- The tea party let it be known that GOP members who don’t represent hte people will be defeated- and that effort by TP did have an effect- We just need it to continue- because the GOP seems to have a very short memory

IF we hire her- this ocutnry is done- IF we hire whoever the GOP nominee is, we at least stand a chance=- a good chance, of getting our country back!

I think it’s higher than that now.

But my stuff is free right?

Remind me; how did a promise to raise taxes and whispering , “Look at them, I’m gonna tax their asses off” work out for Walter Mondull in 1984? It won’t go any better for the Felon.
