“With 1 out of 3 Californians on Medicaid, doctors push ballot measure to force state to pay more”

Let’s see, who will pay more ... the poor folks: no, they are the ones on Medicaid ... the rich folks: no, they will find some way to weasel out of it as they usually do ... the Middle class: of course because the government will make them pay for it as it is just part of their plans to destroy the Middle Class.

“Let’s see, who will pay more ... the poor folks: no, they are the ones on Medicaid ... the rich folks: no, they will find some way to weasel out of it as they usually do ... the Middle class: of course”

We need to cap the ability of Democrats to buy votes by a middle-class income tax cap in the federal constitution.

Fighting for such a middle-class income tax cap now in Congress would add the electors of several deep blue states to Trump’s total and make Congress turn deep red come November.

[perhaps]
Federal income taxation shall be capped as follows, on personal income:
below the average yearly apartment rent in the District of Columbia, 10%,
below the median federal full-time civilian employee compensation amount, 22%,
below the average upper quartile of federal full-time civilian employee compensation amount, 30%,
below the average upper decile of federal full-time civilian employee compensation amount, 40%.

[Note: All percentages include employee FICA. They do not fully include self-employment tax, so people that pay SE tax might choose to voluntarily invest in the SS system or otherwise arrange for their own retirement funding.]
