The Dems plan to take all the money and hand allowances to Loyal Democrats
I think that they will tinker with tax rates and caps on income, as noted here, in order to make incremental increases in taxes paid.
I think the next time we have a Democrat president and Democrat congress, we will see tax increases in many ways, but the increases will be spread out, so that no individual type of tax will increase enough to get people aroused about taxes going up.
And everything will be justified by liberal theology. For example, an increase in federal gas taxes will allegedly be used to fight “global warming”.
Given the long term problems of Social Security, and the trillions of dollars of assets held by many middle income people in 401K type assets, I can envision future Democrats wanting to “borrow” our retirement assets, to allegedly prop up Social Security. In reality, if that ever happens, money will be drained away to be spent on other socialist schemes.
Wouldn’t it just be more honest to strike armed robbery from the criminal statutes?
