Democrats are the Party of America’s state-connected, influence peddling oligarchs and financiers.
There is no reason that taxpayers from more responsible states should subsidize the Marxist policies of liberal stares.
We’re in a political war. As such, I’m for whatever political policies target and punish progressives as much as humanly possible. This doesn’t mean I don’t support Burkean conservatism. It means that I recognize that you cannot have a functional republic with people who reject all the tenets of it.
Democrats will fight tooth and nail to keep the MID - used nearly only by the wealthy.
Democrats will fight tooth and nail to keep the Cadillac Tax provision of Obamacare which will crush the middle class.
It is going to be a landslide...even without the democrat sexual assault and rape scandals.
I am old enough to remember when the GOP was painted as the country club, lawyer, professional, millionaire crowd (a.k.a “the rich”) and the democrats were the blue collar “working man”.
Today, that paradigm has flipped. Yet the same old political saws are used as if the Dems are the financially oppressed
For later...
If Dems really want to practice what they preach, why aren’t they clamoring for a WEALTH TAX...?
How about we quit the Karl Marx class warfare on “the rich”.
The ‘Rats are the party of the very rich and the very poor. And they’ve done an incredibly evil job of convincing the poor that the Republicans are still and always have been the party of the rich.
The “poor Dems” are so easily scammed.
Rather than punish innocent people who got rich through hard work, prosecute the Democrat crony crooks. That’s how they got rich.
I bet all those rich Democrat districts are centered around big government centers where political corruption is out of control.

If Trump wanted to raise the top rate from its present 39.6% to 50% that would be JUST FINE with me.
It’s not because I hate the rich, it’s because THE RICH (mostly) HATE TRUMP, and by definition, they hate me, and just about everyone else on this site. They can go to hell.
Same for higher end people in the blue states. They have high incomes, high standards of living, families, yet they continue to DEMAND (through their tax deductions) that people from Kansas pay for their crappy state governments. They can learn to live without those loopholes.
I am JUST PLAIN SICK of carrying their water on taxes. Yes, ideally, we should all have the lowest taxes possible - but that assumes the people benefiting the most don’t HATE THIS COUNTRY, as they apparently do, by their voting patterns.
