Corporate tax from 21% to 28%. I'm sure that will help unemployment after a fake pandemic. Are these liberals born stupid? He will have erased all the job gains from Trump in the first half of his Presidency. What a moron.

    My understanding of Universal Basic Income is that everyone gets paid without a job.

    So, what’s the problem?

    Next up, massive increase in capital gains tax and taxing IRAs and 401(k)s. Toss in a massive increase in energy prices. All very pro private sector business expansion.

    The corporate tax is quite honestly nothing but a transfer of payments from business to Government (taxpayers). Raise taxes, the number of jobs goes down (it has to), the newly unemployed need assistance, so they taxpayers now pay their wage. This isn't profound thought. I'm a dummy and I know it. So how can Democrats not?

    Answer? They do know it, of course. They just do not care. By "punishing" business they make their chief constituents (lazy worthless no accounts) happy, AND have the added bonus of increasing the size, scope, and dependence on the State. This is pure win for people who hate free markets, love communism and control, and enjoy using useful idiots. Half the morons at their rallies (so like 10 people) don't even realize that if taxes go up jobs go down. But the SJW politicians do, and that's just the way they want it. Dependent sheeple make the best subjects.

    The only good thing about our inevitable descent to communism is that the useful idiots will be first against the wall.

    Don't forget taxing anticipated gains as well

    When you are a loser with no prospects all you have in life is trying to tear other people down.
    In America, you could be a loser And retain most all of your prospects at any tim you decided to get out of bed and go pursue them.

    In February, if you didn't have a job you didn't want one. You wanted to sleep late and drink and take drugs. Just pointing that out makes you a racist.

    Look for some kind of investment equity program to be enacted. Blacks on average have lower rates of retirement savings and investments than whites. Using disparate impact that is obviously on account of systemic racism. Look for the government to create a program to address this inequality.

    Credit ratings are racist.

    I mentioned this before but I do find it interesting how neatly nearly all social pathologies track along the same racial and ethnic lines. Asians perform the best, then whites, then Hispanics and then blacks. Be it credit ratings, school graduation rates, out of wedlock births, violent crime, incarceration rates, death rates, income, home ownership, you name it, nearly all of them track these same lines.

    The Throbber still wants to do that.

    But with a bladder almost as old as Uncle Race, sleeping late is a pipe dream.

    Correlation is not causation. A leftard (including both Bush presidents) looked at homeownership and noticed that there was far less crime and pathology in areas with a high percentage of homeownership versus rentals. So, owning a home must be a mechanism to solve crime and human pathologies. A conservative would say that someone interested in education and hard work had the initiative to become a homeowner. Give someone something they didn't have to work for and you doesn't get you anywhere. Most likely, it increases pathologies.

    We moved to upper Rainier Beach in 87 when it was a "transitional" neighborhood. That actually has nothing to do with race. It was transitioning from rental to ownership as money of all colors moved in. The corner house on the next block was still a rental with some bangers living there. I talked to them when I'd walk by with the dog. Good kids in general. You could still buy crack at the local elementary school field.

    That made it a bargain and why we could buy in town ten minutes from work. Soon the tear downs and new builds started and the drug trade went back down the hill. The prices went up. The way up

    The circle of life. If downtown SF and the rest do crash someone will come along and scoop up the bargains and it will begin again

    I’ve been told by a Urologist I have the bladder of a 90 year old. That didn’t sound very good.

    Don't over look the Biden energy plan.

    In September of 2019, we became energy independent, a net exporter of hydrocarbons. We created millions of jobs across the country and filled the coffers of states with billions in tax dollars.

    We also kept gas and electricity affordable for every American family. Plus, there was a trillion-dollar swing in our favor, money was kept here rather than spent over there.


    We achieved true energy freedom. One of the hugely important, but underappreciated results of the American Energy Renaissance is that peace is breaking out all over the Middle East. There’s a new order in play. Yet we have a political party and candidate who wants to end the miracle and replace it with the utopian notion of a carbonless world. There’s no such thing. Nor will there every be.

    Former Vice President Joe Biden and the Democrats want to depress or even destroy one of America’s most critical industries. I don’t know about you, but I have no desire to worship at the alter of Putin or OPEC. Nor do I think it’s a good idea for American families to spend 6 bucks or more for a gallon of gas or watch their electricity bills double.

    Let me take you back to the ’70s. A Republican president implemented price controls on crude oil. The conventional wisdom said we were running out of domestically produced oil and natural gas. There were no incentives to find more. Meanwhile, governments in the Middle East seized control of their oil and natural gas reserves and formed a cartel known as OPEC.

    In 1973 and again in 1979, they held the world hostage.

    It led to higher gas prices and in some cases, no gas at all.

    The “oil shocks” rattled the world. They knew they had us where it hurts.


    Perversely, we and our allies became hooked on OPEC oil for decades. The cartel dictated the supply and the price, and we shipped a good portion of our wealth to autocrats, kleptocracies and the like – not to mention the hundreds of billions in military spending to protect the energy lifelines.

    We don’t have to be dumb all over again. (Wind and solar will never make us energy independent.) President Trump and his administration understand the huge geopolitical and economic benefits of American energy independence and freedom brought about by the American Energy Renaissance.

    His opponent clearly does not.

    Wesley Hunt (aka Uncle Tom to the leftists) speaks strongly on this very point. He is in favor of alternate sources of energy but very clearly states we don't need to shoot ourselves in the dick in the rush to get there.
