This would be moving things in the right direction. “...raising the corporate tax rate to 28 percent from 21 percent; ...increasing the income tax rate on individuals earning more than $400,000; ...expanding the estate tax...” We also need a #WealthTax. google.com/amp/s/news.yahoo.…

Cool but... I have a question. Wtf are they going to do with that money? I feel like they'll just fund a war and congress will give themselves raises and they'll send some to Israel and other ridiculousness like that. Not a god damn dime of it will be used for anything good.

Plutocrats already won the capitalist challenge. Are they all waiting to become trillionaires before they release the ring of power?

He reversed exactly half of Trump's cut. It only counts as progress if history is imagined to start with Biden's term.

The wealth tax is what scares them the most. Years of manipulating the tax code have made other taxes easily voided. The wealth tax has the super rich freaking out. Fake donations of 90% of their wealth was the preemptive strike on this.

You can make the rate whatever you want. It won’t work. the loopholes are the reason corporations and rich don’t pay taxes. Rich people aren’t “paid” the way we are so no income tax. Amazon didn’t pay zero in fed because there’s no Corp tax rate. This will not solve it
