Millionaires can’t afford to leave the country either.

Because confiscating the wealth of productive people who have made good choices in life to subside unproductive people who have made bad choices in life is an excellent way to create healthy economy and society.

Millionaires either employ others or their money is involved in the employment of others.

People who are given money without working, don’t work themselves and will never create one job.

It can be said they do spark jobs though. The government welfare related work work force is massive.

We pay for that too.

We give away over half a trillion dollars a year, and we pay a massive amount in welfare worker salaries as well.

“This is a bill designed to address two major problems of public policy: the lack of revenue, and inequality,””

Anybody pushing a bill to address the major problems of runaway irresponsible spending and waste and the corrosive effects of enciting envy with egalitarian crap?

The problem isn’t that folks have too much money, its that CAPITAL HAS NOT BEEN FLOWING PROPERLY THROUGH THE ECONOMY!!!!

Trump has done more to help the flow of CAPITAL through all strata of the population than any President in the last 40 years at least.

Capital not flowing effectively through all levels of the population will bring about the end of our society...

“...the lack of revenue...”

Federal tax receipts are at an all-time high....but so is spending.

Democrats transferred TRILLIONS in the War on Poverty with no signs that it works. Why should anyone think transferring more will make a difference?

"You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.

What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving.

The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.”

Current Democrat Fascist Party spending plans call for $75 trillion (projected) in new spending over 10 years.

This “projected wealthy tax” raises $635 billion over 10 years

So Voters, let us do the match.

$75,000,000,000,000 minus 635,000,000,000 leaves $749,365,000,000,000 for the Democrats to find somewhere else. Where do you think they are going to find that money?

The lie about “taxing the wealthy get them no where near. There isn't enough “other spending” in the US Govt budget to make up even a few percentage points of that number.Current Federal Sending yearly is $4.45 trillion

WAKE UP YOU SHEEP. There is ONLY one source for this. You and your children and your grand children will become peons. You all will be locked in a static financial misery forever as tax slaves to fund the Demcorat Facist Goverment.

It will be instructive to see how the hundreds of millionaires in congress have worded the bill to exempt themselves.

“This is revenue generated that we can then invest in helping other Americans succeed,”

I think what he really means is “This is stolen money that we can use to make people more dependent on us and continue voting for us”

“This is revenue generated that we can then invest in helping other Americans succeed, rich elite liberals exceed even more as they run the programs!” Van Hollen said.

The War on Poverty is a prime example of how elite liberals run these programs to "help their poor voters to succeed!"

It's another lie.

This plan will never generate the revenue to fund their utopian fraud.

They will be taxing your retirement savings and your increased property values.

It's a Middle-Class Boom

https://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2019/10/15/its_a_middle-class_boom_141497.html

Trump is already fixing that problem of “inequity” and he doing it without massively increase in taxes.

The fact of the matter is Trump been the best President “for the little guy” in 50 years. The Democrat Fascists party, contrary to their decades of lying propaganda, has always been the best of friends of the Government class and willing servant of the political donor class at the expense of “the little guy”

No. It is revenue generated that we can give to the lazy and the incompetent in order to buy their votes.
