Apparently Rep. Newman’s daughter is transgender so that just adds a whole new layer of vile biblethumping to it.
Rep. Kinzinger (R) seems to have really found his backbone and is putting it to some good use

But it’s part of my effective tax rate calculation so how is it not part of the discussion? Most wealthy people don’t make income from earnings but from capital earnings making their effective tax rates less than 30% or even below 20%. It stops being progressive when as a PE fund manager I make 60% of my income from those funds I manager rather than income earned from salary and bonus.
Yeah most people I know tend to share my view on it. However in politics it’s always a hot topic as the trickle-down clowns (and there are a lot) argue with everyone else.the company I work for is headquartered in Denmark and everyone I talk to there has a similar opinion. Most of them tax pretty great pride in their health care system, education, and vacation/family leave policies. I think it would just be a culture shock if you were used to it but most people would probably adjust fine. I’d have a real hard time paying $70k in taxes a year but I guess if you work less it may be worth it.
Id be real interested to see what would happen with wages in America if corporations didn’t have to subsidize a large portion of health insurance costs.

This is about how much I pay for one class and I thought that was a good deal.$900 is roughly what our tuition costs per year and that's for a very prestigious university.
Like I said, I think capital gains rates are dumb as hell, but generally speaking capital gains rates are actually progressive as well as they are general 0%-20% depending what your taxable income is. I think the cutoff is like $50k for capital gains to be taxed at 0%, but again, the capital gains rate is stupid and I don’t disagree with your general point here. I understand why they did it as a means to reduce double taxation but all it does is substantially favor the rich.

She’s a danger alright.
I wish we could opt out of social security as well. I can manage my own money.
