These should be talking points for every Dem!

I also believe we should endorse raising taxes. The reason we have a deficit is because we aren’t bringing in enough money.

Going back to Reagan, we have unfunded tax cuts that are supposed to stimulate the economy and trickle down to the peasants. We all know how that turned out.

With W we had unfunded tax cuts AND two unfunded wars.

With carrot man we will have two unfunded tax cuts that benefit HIM and his family. Pfffttt

Not one dime should be cut from the social network until

DOD and Homeland Security budgets are cut by 25%; and,

Jeff Bezos et al pay at LEAST 10% personal income tax each year; and

Raise the SS maximum taxable earning from $176,000+ to $400,000.

My two cents…👍
