Elizabeth Warren wants Over 50% Income Tax Rate (Yuck!)
Vanity | 7/25/2018 | Self

Posted on 07/25/2018 8:08:50 AM PDT by CptnObvious

Q:" Is 50 percent obviously too high?"

(Warren)A: "That’s why you sit down and you negotiate over the numbers."

She's really up for MORE THAN 50% if she can get it.

That's what Progressives like Warren visualize the American "plantation" to be--a place where political "elites" decide how the fruits of your labor will be "redistributed" to their own voters!

They always site those astronomical rates, but they fail to mention:
1 - there were a ridiculous amount of deductions
2 - it was a cash society and business owners got rich by not claiming income
3 - the banks weren’t electronically monitoring and snitching on us

She wants to be a slave master! Take peoples money, control their labor, dictate their actions and feed them a pittance.

What Democrats really want is to tax everyone 100%, and then the government could pay them back whatever it thinks they deserve. Which would be enough to keep them alive so they could work and pay taxes, no more.

Back in the 50s while Ike was in the WH, the top marginal (empahsis on marginal) tax rate was 91%.

When you factor in State and local, sales taxes, excise taxes, property taxes and a myriad of fees, it already is at, and has well passed 50%.

So, what is she gunning for in actuality? 75% tax?
