A $400,000 income used to be nearly unimaginable.
Now it is barely enough to make ends meet. /s
One of the 1st things Congress will do is repeal the Trum tax cuts and restore state income tax deductions.
Welcome to oligarch communism. Their wealth tumors grow unchecked, while we get ritually bled.
leading to about 542,000 fewer full-time equivalent jobs.

Right there that number is too small. We need to increase it 10 fold - the more people on unemployment and welfare, the better the economy - Pelosi think.
Why can’t it all be just left alone? Why do we need a constant stream of new laws? How can anyone plan or do business with a near constantly shifting tax and regulatory setting? They can’t really. They do so in spite of the giverment and not because of it.
Our nation sucks and sucks worse every day.
If biden gets sworn in, the 2022 midterms won’t matter.
The Squat.. I am amused.
Considering the average profit at full service restaurants is 3-5% most won’t make it out of the scamdemic. Too many scared people listening to too many false profits.
A $15 minimum wage would be the stake through the heart for any restaurant owner contemplating re-opening or even remaining in business.
A $15 minimum wage?
Can we say Inflation freight train?
Why yes, yes we can!
Hyperinflation here we come!
The ultra wealthy are a protected class so the democrats will raise taxes on the poor and they will skyrocket. The pro American poor are the threat.
He won't waste that money. He will give it to welfare recipients, who will pass it along to drug dealers and Indian immigrants who own 7-11 stores. The other big beneficiaries will be woke government employees who will be paid outrageous salaries to oversee this giveaway.
The average American will be taxed to support this nonsense, but will not directly receive any benefit.
I will benefit by changing my investment strategy to tilt toward convenience stores, rent-to-own purveyors of low quality furniture at high prices, and the like. There is opportunity in every challenge.
“Soak the rich” did not work in 1935, under FDR’s New Deal, and it won’t work today.
It is impossible to tax wealth beyond the first attempt at confiscation. Beyond that, the very wealthy simply hide their wealth in ways the tax collector cannot touch.
The rich won’t miss any meals.
Tax the Rich till they’re Rich no more.
It isn’t just a Song Lyric.
I used to think that was crazy. Now I’m all for it, starting with Bezos.
And NO ONE talks about UNFUNDED LIABILITIES.
The doom of which I speak is a MOUNTAIN called "unfunded liabilities" — $122 TRILLION in payments the government owes and has promised its citizens — without the funds to fulfill those obligations.
“Rich,” in this case, meaning everyone who works.
Sorry to break it to you, it is no longer and If, it is now a When. Short of him dying and Harris being sworn in, he’ll be sworn in.
If you took every dime from the ‘rich’, it wouldn’t run this
nation very long. Then you’d have no wealthy people to tax.
The wealthy pay a very large portion of the taxes in this
nation comparatively. That would cease.
Who would then make up the loss? NOBODY!
This continual class warfare angle is tedious.
