I say tax the rich and corporations to balance the budget and pay down the debt. The rich and corporations use to be taxed up to 91% just 45-50 years ago. But now they pay hardly anything. Some paid nothing just last year with record profits. This is why we are in debt as a nation and have nothing to show for it. We have an infrastructure that’s failing and social programs that are no more like mental health and drug rehab programs. Our social safety net for people now is prisons. We have failed as a society to help our fellow neighbor. We have failed to help those who need it most and wonder why crime is up.
How anyone can vote for the people with this plan amazes me. Here is the Republican plan… sounds terrible… and only benefits the rich. I say tax them hard to make up for the last 50 years that they haven’t been taxed. It’s time to turn our country back into a great country that takes care of everyone.
From the article: more trickle down economics that hasn’t worked. How stupid is this? Reaganomics has never worked and we are failing as a nation because of it.
The Republican Study Committee also released a blueprint to balance the budget in seven years last year, which included making Trump's tax cuts permanent and ensuring Social Security's solvency by gradually raising the retirement age. An increase in the retirement age would translate into substantial lifetime benefit cuts for future retirees.
