While I do not think the Donald can win me over with these tax plans, if the rhetorical space becomes a zone between Sanders Thought (with Hillary perhaps catching up in a more modest way) and Donald Trump's "gently caress Those Guys" tax proposals, I think it will be an election we can feel good about. Domestically at least. Of course, this might cause a second Business Plot.

Third World Reggin posted:read what trump does then recall that rich people, rich society, has never accepted trump and have always looked down upon him openly A rich outcast who wants to get power to gently caress over the rich(er) people who treated him like poo poo is kinda amusing to watch at least. Lotka Volterra posted:The best part is that it's the one populist bone that he'd have absolutely no chance of enacting. Whereas war/deportation would be well within his purview, especially with a Republican congress. Collecting and deporting tens of millions of people is logistically impossible even if he has a supermajority of congressional support unless he can get a few hundred thousand volunteers to join the Trumpstaffel. He'd have a better shot at bullying the GOP to back him on raising taxes on capital gains than he would of getting his immigration enforcement put in to effect without declaring nationwide martial law.

Uhhh you guys should probably wait until you read his tax plan before you start cheering it for being economically progressive. I am sure his tax plan will eliminate the carried interest loophole, which allows about 0.01% of rich people (active fund managers) to treat their income as capital gains income instead of normal income. At the same time I am sure his tax plan will lower the top tax rates on all rich people and/or remove some of the top brackets entirely - the new bracket put in place by Obama and the Democrats on income over about $450k/individual, for example, is basically guaranteed to be gone. All of this will be dressed up in the same "everyone gets a tax cut!" bullshit used by Bush, whereby your average middle class family will save $500/year while every rich rear end in a top hat who doesn't happen to be an active hedge fund manager (aka 99.9% of the rich) will end up saving hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars every year. Eliminating the carried interest loophole is A Good Thing, but if you think it won't be coupled with tax cuts for the rich that are thousands of times worse you're loving delusional.

You were using a thirty million figure before - even assuming this was feasible, that is about ten percent of the population of the United States. Even the more rational figure rooted in the noted pinko liberal rag of "reality and census figures" is eleven or twelve million. That's pretty "mass" and "forced" to me.

It's named that because some random inn owner in the colonial era was like "The King of Prussia is a cool guy, imma name my inn the King of Prussia Inn". so that area around the inn became known by the same name, and then they happened to build a mall there.

People talking about Trump being a fascist probably actually believe they are more intelligent than people who talk about Obama being a dictator. Same stupid poo poo, but with more pretentious analogies. "Donald Trump's campaign is exactly the same as #Gamergate! Trump Culture is racist and Gamer Culture is sexist. Here are 10,000 words explaining why you'll never understand because you're a privileged white male. Vice President Ted Cruz will make sure the Trump administration obeys the Constitution fully anyways.
