It’s time to tax the super rich – Here is Why I Disagree

It’s time to tax the super rich – UnHerd

Taxing the rich sounds great to many people who buy into big government fixes for free market problems. Taxes will benefit politicians with more income to redistribute. Taxes take money and opportunities out of the private sector. The rich can afford to move and take their money with them.

I would eliminate tax loopholes that disproportionately help the Uber wealthy. Government contractors and contracts are not held accountable for cost over runs. An roi needs to be done on all government run or funded programs. Campaign contributions from rich donors and corporations should be banned or capped at a very low level, with no loopholes. The revolving door between holding government office and the corporate, media, defense, tech, any lobbying groups should be stopped.

AOC is probably well intended but she is very new to the game and not aware of the root problems that are systemic.

Stop bringing in thousands of migrants who keep downward pressure and wages. There is a causes and effect correlation here.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez equate the Holocaust to the Caravan Trying to Get In to the USA | Armstrong Economics

All the hype over Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who was elected and waiting to take office come January is interesting insofar as the Democrats saw her as the future of the Party, they really have to take a closer look. She compared the caravan from Central America to the Jews fleeing Germany. Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina had some words of advice for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. “I recommend she take a tour of the Holocaust Museum in DC,” Graham tweeted. “Might help her better understand the differences between the Holocaust and the caravan in Tijuana.” It looks like we are going to have some interesting crazy dialog coming out for the next two years.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Becomes a Professional Politician | Armstrong Economics

Of course, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez defends cab drivers rather than the riders. Uber is infinitely better than any cab in New York City not to mention cleaner. These people are not capable of ever looking out for the consumer – only those with lobby money in hand for the next election.
