  1.  Adrian Reyes  she voted against Pelosis plan because she wants no immigration enforcement at all for an example.

  2.  @duece152  Yep...we are crazy because we care about our country and want to keep the things that we earned. Terrible of us.

  3.  Adrian Reyes  They're not wrong. Lol

  4.  Adrian Reyes  listen to what she says....it's straight up socialism.

  5.  @theonlygus  When you look at party ideas and such...that explanation falls wayyyy short. It's also incredibly obtuse. You watch CNN I presume?

  6.  @lordbread2083  It wouldn't have happened if we didn't crumble our mental health system. Taking away everyone's right to defend themselves from a couple bad people is the epitome of mob rule and is silly.

  10.  @enterpriseb8055  exactly. All because a group of people who have power over you decided they think you make "too much". Ridiculous notion.

  11.  @39Hundred  exactly. They're purposely kept dependent upon the government so they don't ever get out of poverty and they keep voting in Democrats who keep giving more welfare....and then who raise taxes more and more. It's a vicious cycle. Welfare just keeps dependent drones.

  12.  @theStormaftertheCalm  the rich do get richer, but there are also many people every day who work hard and take major risks to get rich who started with nothing. The top earners in the US fluctuates and changes all the time. Anyone not willing to work hard and take risks or innovate something and anyone just living off the government for their whole life will stay poor.

  13.  @djdennis9298  How does that make sense? How has their been any mob rule under Trump?

  14.  Adrian Reyes  Yes and then she goes beyond their ideas...

  15. It's lazy people wanting free stuff and to not have to work for things. Ourcountry has taught people that we should be dependent upon the government (which just means dependent upon other citizens money). That's why people are poor. Dependency.

  17.  @daddydoesdyna9539  Sure is. I mean...why would rich people be advocating for paying a lot more money themselves? This is naivety at its finest. Bernie Sanders, for instance. Do people really believe that he just wants to be super taxed out of the kindness of his heart? Of that was the case, he would pay extra taxes now. Lol Nobody is stopping anyone from paying more than they owe. No, it is about gaining more power over the people.

  18.  @djdennis9298  Pelosi has the government shut down and we should be rejoicing. The scariest thing about the shut down is that it will reopen.

  19.  @lordbread2083  No. You are wrong. Banning guns is silly. Almost all legally obtained guns are used how they're supposed to be used.

  20.  @jidf32  Not fair is making two groups of people pay separate tax percentages. It is monetary discrimination. Anyone complaining about how much money another person has has jealousy issues.

  27.  @djdennis9298  how do uou have all your freedoms when you're being gorced to pay for a program whether you want it or not. And taxes will skyrocket if we ever get it. If you don't pay this forced theft of your labor, men with guns come and kidnap you and put you in a cage.

  28.  Becky Norton  I live in the US but Euripe has a lack of Doctors as well. There is also the months of waiting for surgeries. 😑
    2
  29.  Becky Norton  Exactly. We have low taxes compared to other countries. It would skyrocket to pay for it. Medicaid is already a big cost to us and it is to so few people. And we can't habe things like Medicare for all while also allowing illegal immigrants in to be a drain on our system.

  30.  Becky Norton  exactly!

  31.  @bigskyski1  How many people isn't the issue. It's immoral to take two groups and tax them differently even if there is only one. You think someone deciding tomorrow that YOU make "too much" money(God forbid you work hard to be successful) and they're gonna take 70% of it from now on is ok and moral?
    1
  32.  @gethcreator751  exactly.
    1
  33.  @bigskyski1  Yes, I'm aware. It is immoral. And now people are advocating for a much larger gap...not realizing their hike in taxes would come next. 40% of our labor is immoral. We should cut down the government by 90% and we won't need income taxes. The government is sticking themselves in every area of our lives to control. Income taxes at all are immoral. We pay tax when we earn money and then again when we spend it. People are indoctrinated to think it's ok. And the government just keeps growing to need more and more. More departments and more regulations and more laws.
    1
  34.  @bigskyski1  Our defense budget is overblown. If we stopped invading other countries for regime changes and the like, it wouldn't need to be so high. The government needs to lost most of it's departments. Why do we need 17 intelligence agencies? Several have been continually proven to work AGAINST the citizens anyway. Also, government departments are all given so much money. At the end of the year, if they have leftover funds(almost always do), they will go on shopping sprees for paper, pencils, etc. to soend it so they don't lose that funding the next year. There is a lot of places money could be made. We could also stop sending aid to other countries whilst we have poor homeless people here.

  35.  @bigskyski1  We should have one along with other options as well as reformed immigration laws to stop the flooding of illegal people and stop people from abusing our system. It's a drop in the bucket compared to how much illegal immigrants cost the country every year by using our welfare system and using our schools, hospitals, etc.

  36.  Adrian Reyes  Socialism is basically communism. She is a full on socialist. Democratic socialism is just socialism with a pretty name in front to make it sound better.

  38.  Adrian Reyes  And I guess if uou like super high taxes. Not just income taxes either. There's lots of other little taxes to help their social programs. Like sugar taxes and such in some countries.

  48.  @djdennis9298  It's not just medicare for all...she wants socialism altogether. Listen to the ladies ideas. Lol I hope you enjoy eating dog cuz that's what will be for dinner. It's high taxes(stealing your labor) and forcing you to pay whether you use the services or not. And if you don't pay, guys with guns come kidnap you and lock you in a cage.

  49.  @djdennis9298  I know that he is the only one that has tried to negotiate his terms. I also know that Pelosi said she would only give a dollar for a wall/fence. What he is asking for is a drop in the bucket of our budget. She could just agree and move on. He has already conceded to a fence and lowered the amount.

  50.  @djdennis9298  The eating dog comment was for socialist countries. Thise countries are not socialist.

  53.  @jidf32  It is absolutely a jealousy issue. The people who work in their companies make the choice to work there. They could have also worked their ass off and taken risks or went and learned a skill that offers more money to have a better pay. It os all about peoples choices in life. Not the evilllll rich people. Taxing different groups of people different rates is discrimination.

  54.  @chiquilinmarx1605  You are on a device that was created from capitalism. You're on a platform that was created because of capitalism. Capitalism is the most free type of economics that has brought the most people out of poverty. Peoples way of living is all on choices that they make. Choices that are possible in a capitalist economy.

  58.  @jidf32  You're misinformed of you think they got where they are and make the money they make by not working their asses off
    1
  59.  @jidf32  To get where they are, they had to worm their asses off. You have literally no clue what you're talking about. Also, there is way more rich people than wall street bankers(who did work their asses off to get thror position). There's many jobs that make one a rich person and they all take a ton of work and lots of risks.
    1
  60.  @jidf32  It isn't only about working either, as I've said. Many of these rich people take risks with their money and such that most people aren't willing to do. And yes, many of them work much longer hours than the typical middle class and lower class person. I've never said that they don't get tax breaks and such now. I'm talking about getting to be rich in the first place. It takes lots of hard work, long hours, willing to do more than the average person. You sound incredibly jealous og the success that others have made for themselves. Your envy is sad.
    1
  61.  @jidf32  I'm sorry, but you're quite ignorant of how people get rich. The wall street people work their ass off to get their jobs. It's a cut throat job.They also work very long hours. Yes, Hollywood and athletes do. They have to work hard to get noticed out of millions of people. Athletes risk their bodies. They both work very long hours. These things are commom knowledge. You clearly have no idea what you're talking about so have a good one.
    1
  62.  @jidf32  I never said success and hard work are correlated. I said to make that kind of money, you have to work hard, take risks, be in charge of many people for some jobs. Each job is different Nd has different reasons. There's nothing wrong with being able to make a lot of money. This is where you sound jealous.
    1
  63.  @jidf32  I also never said anything about other people being lazy. You're choosing what you want my words to say.

  64.  @jidf32  Hollywood people DO have to work hard. Again, very long hours.Putting themselves in public eye. Trying to put stick out of a very large crowd of others who want to be an actor, working their ass off to get there. WS Bankers work very long hours as well. They have to work their ass off to get that job. Your jealousy has you so stuck on those types of rich people that you forget Doctors of all types, people who invented things and innovate to become rich, people who have worked their ass off to work their way up the chain in corporations, etc. All of these people work hard to get there. Thinking they don't just shows ignorance. Get out of your envious pit.
