1/ Imagine if we had a presidential candidate saying “Yep it’s true. We’re going to give you free healthcare. We’re going to pass a Green New Deal. We’re going to make college tuition free for everyone. We’re going to cancel all your college loans.”

2/ And when people asked “But how are we going to pay for all that?” the candidate would say “By taxing the segment of people whose tax cuts and corporate subsidies have amounted to the biggest transfer of wealth in our history over the last 40 years.”

3/ Call me whatever, but I cannot imagine that the American people would turn that down.

Top 10% of earners pay 70% of all taxes collected. What makes you think you have a right to take more? Because you want it? Because u can give freebies to buy votes? Tax breaks always help those who are paying the most, numnuts.

The people couldn’t even be allowed2know about Jill Stein because corporate media doesn’t acknowledge what is healthy+renewing for the citizenry and/or they vilify it so the citizenry is led to unjustly condemn the best+brightest champions it should have respected and rewarded.

I come from the UK home of ”free” Healthcare. They struggle to maintain it due to lower funding/increased population. Americans would hate their system, patients have less power/access. We’d have to pay higher taxes to have “free” healthcare. The Biden plan won’t work.

Nor would some of that fell in the 1%. Abigail Disney and other "Patriotic Millionaires." They oppose tax cuts for the wealthy.

So you agree that the primaries were rigged against Bernie? Because we don't believe the American people turned Bernie's proposal down.

But it would not be accurate, if that matters to you. I am NOT in the 2% but the tax cuts put over 2500.00 more in my bank account annually, in addition to this the company I work for gave each of us a 750.00 a year bonus because of the massive savings their tax breaks gave them.
