Good video. I think the top income tax rate should be 50% on whatever you make over $500,000 or $1,000,000 a year whichever amount and that would help pay for stuff like this. I also think that's what Jesus would want for the top income tax rate to he 50%. I don't know enough about the other taxes to say anything about them.

@harveycamper5847 the top income tax rate used to be 50% and it looked perfectly normal to me. I think it was 50% during bill Clintons years and everything seemed like it was going goog then. Plus it affects the national debt a lot. I've always thought things like you notice how when the top tax rate is 50% on whatever you make over $500,000 a year instead of the 37% Republicans want you don't see people wanting to be famous, rich actors, singers or pro athletes any less. I think the workers and physical laborers especially are really the ones that work not the billionaire or millionaire business owners. That's always the first thing I think of when I think of work physical labor. Just look what's going on with the Amazon warehouse workers now. They say stuff about them working so hard and they even say things like they're the real billionaires not Jeff Bezos they just don't have anything to show for it. Being an Amazon warehouse worker sounds rough to me moreso than about any other job other than other physical laborers. I always thought a dishwasher at a restaurant was a physically rough job. Yeah this all affects the national debt a lot. I always thought I'd probably retire at 70 and might only live to 75. Maybe if people didn't live so long and stayed on social security so long the national debt wouldn't be as bad too. It's hard for me to picture staying on social security and not having to work for decades like what happens a lot of the time.
