I'm a Trump supporter, but I think a few of the democrazies ideas are OK

[Muhammed]

I voted for Trump 3 times, and I feel that he has made America ALMOST great again. I guess that makes me a MAAGA.
So what are the good ideas ? >>>

1. Tax the VERY VERY rich more. It won't hurt to raise taxes on the top 1% (leaving the other 99% alone). C'mon folks, if you're at over TRILLION $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ net worth like Elon Musk, you could pay a lot more in taxes, and still have waaaaaaay more money than the rest of us. Those extra tax $$$$$$$$ could hire more ICE officers, hire more police to lower crime rates, get help for renters being smashed by greedy landlords, help business owners losing sales due to renters paying astronomical rents.

2 I wouldn't say say that this is really a Democrazies idea (because they oppose it about as much as Republicans do), but there really does need to be SOME degree of rent control, to stop runaway rents, which have skyrocketed to undreamed of levels over the last 4 years (200% inflation & some places even worse than that).
Before anyone comes barnstorming in here with all the decades old landlord propagandas about their costs being so high > no landlord's costs are going up 200+% or anywhere near that, and New York City has had thousands of buildings under rent control for 100 years & the buildings are still there, not abandoned, still occupied, landlords still making profits on them.

3.. This one comes in the from of a question because I'm really not sure about it. If Democrats (currently holding seats in congress) have proposed raising social security COLAs, post that (with sources).

You sound very envious of that Musk fellow.

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

Fool. I've been a capitalist business owner for 43 years.
Don't you know that 99% of business owners are not landlords, and we are being damaged massively by the landlord greed of the past 5 years ?

Capitalists are the victims of landlords, not cohorts.

Then be a landlord. Like your *pResident. Then everything will be hunky dory, right?

What democrazies (AKA Communists) promise and what they deliver are two different things.

1. Musk didn't get a $trillion in a paycheck. He would pay tax on that. It's the value of his combined companies. He currently employees 160,000 worldwide and pays taxes on those employees He also always pays property taxes on his buildings in the millions. In 2021 he paid $21 billion in income tax. He didn't become wealthy by being stupid with money.

2. You're naive if you think the government just won't squander that extra income tax. We're 37 trillion in debt. Zero will go to pay down the debt. The US doesn't have a tax problem. We have a spending problem.

3. Rent control destroys communities. Proof? Just look at NYC. Landlords have to pay higher and higher property taxes and maintenance, but with rental income 20 years outdated.

4. Your last question is vague and confusing. Not sure what point you're making.

How and which taxes?

Another lying person....
Claim to be a conservative but talk exclusively verbatim like a Communist Democrat.....

80, and I understand far more than you comprehend

Dementia is a horrible disease. It has turned you into a communist.

 

[jc456]

Would you like me to explain it to you ?

Explain your version of land ownership

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

I actually liked Andrew Yang. He had some brilliant ideas about how to have the states income taxes work for the people, and have the states products incomes be distributed amoung the tax payers.

He was definitely 1970s old school Democrat. I would have defintely voted for him.

You like the idea of universal basic income? Are you a socialist?

 

[Admiral Rockwell Tory]

He doesn't have to give up his companies, to pay far more than 1%, and if you pay that same %, you probably ought to be paying more than that too, to not do so isn't fair to all the millions of Americans paying the standard tax rates (10-37%)

How many billions in taxes is not enough?

 

[Wild Bill Kelsoe]

1. They won't just raise taxes on the very rich. It's unconstitutional.

2. Do away with a bunch of government regulations and lower property taxes and rent will go down.

The cities and states were democrats rule have the highest living costs. So what policies if theres do you agree with.

When you tax the rich who already pay most of the taxes they will just pass the tax on down to you. If you want more tax revenues then cut taxes.

 

[DGS49]

Aside from raw envy (one of the seven deadly sins) much of the Left's antagonism toward great wealth is based on the belief that the wealth of a nation is a fixed amount, and if one person gets "too much" of it, then others must necessarily get "too little."

But you can't fix stupid.

 

[jc456]

Yes, it is insane, I'm 80 years old, and I've never seen rent inflation anything near this level. Not only clobbers the renters (112 Million in US) but also businesses who depend on those renters' $$$ for sales.

One unfortunate example - Sam Ash Music opened up in 1924. Went out of business, after 100 years of success.

Who accesses the property?

Giving people back some money you took from them to start a state business is not socialism you derptoid.

It is if its not a tax cut. Then its other peoples money socialism

 

[Meister]

He has enough sitting to be able to pay far more than 1% of his wealth, without affecting anything of his activities. In 2025, he paid 11 billion, largely due to exercising Tesla stock options, and selling billions of dollars' worth of Tesla shares. Chase Bank, Piggy Bank, or any other bank, he paid it, and %wise it's a lot less than the average American paid.

Well? How much does he have "sitting"? You said it, now state how much, or STFU.

It’s always good for a laugh to come by an see what kind of retarded shit the op has come up with recently.

 

[Anathema]

you may be a Trump supporter but you’re not a Conservative, OP. That makes your viewpoints worthless. All three if your ideas smell like what comes out the back end of my dogs.

1. If ABTIBE needs to be taxed more it’s the POIR, not the ru h.

2 All rent control would do is reduce the number of available properties and see the existing ones crumble into disrepair.

3. Social Security needs to be done away with, not increased

Who took money from whom?
