How can we do what's fair if we can't agree on what fair means?

[Hafar1014]

Yea because those tax cuts went heavily to the rich and we can't afford that. If Trump or Bush's tax breaks went to the middle class only that would have been a win for everyone. It's like Republicans can't wait for the country to go bankrupt again in the next great depression.

Trump put 10 billion dollars into the middle class with his tax cuts

Any savings got eaten up when I purchased some new furniture and when I filled my gas tank. Oh is that going to improve? How much? Are you going to get us to 6% more inflation than Biden left us? Then that's not a win.

You don't get to jack up the economy then get credit for fixing it. You just cost us a fortune are we supposed to forget that?

Trumps tax cuts were for the middle class. Get your facts right. Reagan ended many deductions fit the wealthy with TEFRA. Inflation is stable and not high. You just need someone to blame for your problems. The story of your life

You are too nice for me to explain.

Thanks lol but is it perhaps son of a b... Go f yourself?

We can't agree on simple definitions of simple words any more because we've become so divided and tribal.

That has led us into split, parallel, separate realities.

Self-inflicted wound. Those who have a vested interest in our division and tribalism are winning. Or, they've won.

We can't even agree on what a woman is.

Along those lines, yes.

The sb was referring to a poster, but I like YOUR TAKE BETTER!

"The more you have, the more you can afford for us to take" is not the definition of "fairness".

IT IS PUNITIVE.

That is how commies look at taxes.

Pretty far apart. This victim/oppressor scheme is very useful to politicians.

3 1/2 years old but still interesting. I could never be a policieman. I would like to have bashed the lady's face in and taught her a lesson.

Funny how they see "required ID" as a disincentive for voting, even though elections are but one day of the year at most. . .

But a guaranteed take on your riches has no effect at all?

Kinda works like that

You tax where the money is, not those who are struggling to survive

Fairness

Just an excuse to cheat.

ONE MUST SHOW ID TO ENTER THE OBAMA CENTER.

WHAT ABOUT ALL THE BLACKS TOO POOR AND STUPID TO GET ID BUT WHO WANT TO GO TO THE OBAMA CENTER?!!

 

[ColonelAngus]

WAAAAAH!!!

SOMEONE HAS MORE MONEY THAN ME!!!!!

TAKE IT AWAY AND GIVE IT TO ME!!!!!!

 

[ChristisKing]

It's like ColonelAngus already said,... They know that cheating is their only chance to win so needing to have an ID to vote makes them feel threatened.

The GOP has been the party of the Klan and gunaholics for decades. Your point?

Guns and racism don't seem to be costing them elections. The Mexicans, Muslims and Blacks are just as easily duped by Trump as white voters. Or at least enough of them that he won all 5 swing states in 2024. How's that working out for them?

Delusional Trump, 80, Posts Unhinged 6.47 AM Response to Nightmare Polls​

The president was up bright and early on Monday, posting about approval ratings that simply don’t exist.​

President Donald Trump has boasted of having his “Highest Poll Numbers Ever” despite a run of surveys showing his approval rating has cratered to the lowest point since he returned to office.

The 80-year-old president fired off the claim at 6.47 a.m. Monday, insisting on Truth Social that his numbers are now “Even Higher Than Election Day, November 5th.” He added, without further context: “This despite the fact that, IRAN WILL NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON.”

Sounds delusional like Hafar1014

Waaaaah our country is going broke ever since the rich took over our government through the Republican party and got it to pass tax policies that are killing us.

Now Trump has a different lie he tells poor and middle class Americans than the typical Republican tells. Like kicking all the illegals is going to improve their lives. Or charging the rest of the world tariffs is going to create high paying jobs in America. I mean on some level those things will actually help but it's never going to work out down the road. It just buys Trump and the Republicans time.

No they weren't

Whether Donald Trump's tax breaks were for the middle class is a subject of intense debate, with analyses showing mixed results. While the policies were championed as tax relief for working families, critics argue the benefits are disproportionately skewed toward corporations and the wealthy.

Put it this way. You eliminate taxes on tips. They weren't paying taxes on tips anyways. And it's a pathetic attempt to show Trump's tax breaks were for the middle class. If they were only for the middle class then I would approve.

As has been pointed out previously in the thread, leftist conditioning of society via critical theory philosophy transmitted to the ruling elites at universities, who then spread it into the mainstream culture is what has broken down our common cultural heritage.

Critical theory stands in stark contrast to the Enlightenment philosophy of the founders and the values that founded this nation.

An eloquent way of saying the hyphenated-American is really un-American Mr B??

Why would someone risk jail, fines and/or deportation to cast one effing vote? That`s incredibly stupid to even think that. On the other hand, Trump supporters won`t be confused with MENSA Society members. You`re quoting Colonel Anus?

If the tips are included on the bill, they pay taxes on them. I leave the server cash.

They're rarely held accountable for it.
