If Bernie's windfall profits tax were enacted last year it would have raised $400 billion from just 30 corporations including: -$12.7 billion from Chevron -$9.5 billion from Exxon -$9.5 billion from Conoco That's enough revenue to provide every working class American $2,000.

Taxing already high energy prices before an election. I'm not sure this is the win you think it is.

Could also have used the $100+ billion we're sending to Ukraine (Raytheon, et al)

Bull, the Federal govt is the issuer of the US dollar and does not collect taxes from any corporations or person/persons to then spend. It has NO need of tax revenue for spending.

That's enough to provide Ukraine a week's worth of security aid!

I read it. I find it odd that you leftists fail to grasp the obvious: these companies wouldn't be paying a dime. They'd just pass the increased costs along to the consumer, blowing yet another horrific hole in the inflation equation. Do any of you have a functioning neuron left?

But Bernie has no power and Biden us destroying our nation from within.
