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.

Wonder if Amazon or Google would have paid anything under Bernie's windfall tax? Bet not

Ok, then who provides the oil going forward? $2000 don't mean much if you have no where to go?

Stating that taxing at the federal level will provide money to spend means that you are accepting the right wing narrative of Margaret Thatcher that there is no public money, only taxpayer money. You have already lost the argument. #LearnMMT

Aren’t these funds also used to fund 401k retirement plans for millions of people? Or are they free and clear dollars?

Which they would turn around and spend on gas for their cars, oil to heat their house, and higher prices at every store because oil is how food and products are brought to market. The oil companies will have to make up for loss of revenue. You don’t understand economics do you?

Restore Eisenhower era tax rates. No wheel needs to be invented. Restore Eisenhower era tax rates. Repeated for emphasis.

Would've been nice if Bernie didn't disband his movement, and instead used the millions of people that had his back to actually deliver that revolution he always talked about. But he's a good boy that cucked himself to the establishment to avoid the Ralph Nader treatment
