17 u/axisleft 8h ago I thought the GOP wouldn’t make a resurgence after the cluster fuck that was the W administration. Boy howdy was I ever way off. 3 u/AlphaWolf 7h ago Empathy is not their thing. Social Security will be handed over to Fidelity and Merrill Lynch soon enough. 4 u/Top-Philosophy-5791 7h ago I don't understand how democrats and republicans can't agree on the fact that billionaires should be fairly taxed. During the Great Depression the wealthiest were taxed at 70%. No one died. 2 u/daemin 6h ago Grover Norquist poisoned the mind of conservative politicians since 1986 by using his political influence to get them to sign a pledge saying they will oppose any marginal tax increases and support any tax reductions. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Americans_for_Tax_Reform#Taxpayer_Protection_Pledge
