Mildly Infuriating

Mamdani's ideological approach may terrify some employers... the ones that are currently massively dodging taxes, paying way, way lower taxes, getting all kinds of tax exemptions and deductions, getting all kinds of no strings attached subsidies... from actual taxpayers.

The idiot capital class is obviously propogandizing in overdrive mode, but they also seem to be largely legitimately delusional about realizing how astonishingly subsidized they are by public financing, so that they can concentrate private profits.

'But it would be impossible to run my business without training wheels and floaties and a helmet all provided to me by the government!!!'

Ok fuckstick, don't care, sounds like a skill issue to me if you can't main as a capitalist without a bunch of handicaps on, either get gud or stop pretending you deserve your spot on the 'free market' league leaderboard.

Higher Income people actually prefer the Socialist lmfao

Its somehow the poor people that get gaslighted into voting for conservatism

Ironic

imho that's what connects all the right, from finance bros to masculinists to racists : they're terrified. Of change, of difference. Of others. They're deathly afraid and it explains every action they take, every word they say.

the scariest part about tax the millionaires policies for millionaires is that we did it in massachusetts and the outcome was that it worked and raised billions for the state

This is not specific to this post but can we please not hype the guy up too much before we see what he actually does when in office? From all the news coverage I'm getting a 'He is the Messiah! We are rescued!' vibe. He may still bend the knee to the rich once he has power.

We’re the taxpayers that want “free” health care while simultaneously paying taxes. The Right somehow thinks we’re too stupid to know we pay taxes that makes these things happen. Heck…we want people to have nice things.

Meanwhile the Right doesn’t want to pay taxes yet somehow expects to get social services like paved roads or safe drinking water. I’d mention schools or health care but the republicans clearly DGAF about those things.

millionaires? you mean taxnonpayers?

This is very Boomers thinking everyone is still a 16 year old Millennial.

Boomer brains stuck in 1998, and it shows.

They don't believe anyone under a certain income pays taxes. "Taxpayer" just means "upper income tax bracket" in their mind.

I am tired of the boomer narrative of that it's always those "young people" ruining everything. Oldest millennials are now in their mid-40's. Or even worse, the youngest gen-z people are almost 18 now. These people have been paying their taxes for years on end now.

The only terrified people in this scenario are the literal parasites who don't pay anything, through loopholes and theft

The lone defender of the billionaires at this point says everything we need to know

I'll bet Kathy Wilde doesnt pay taxes. Also, that job description says "oligarch enabler".

"employers and taxpayers" is like "job creators".

They don't want to say "the ultra wealthy" because that would be too accurate for the owner of the site, who is an ultra wealthy person.

nah it terrifies tax dodgers and leeches of society

I appreciate that they say that employers don't pay taxes.

"The media" love nothing more than to find the absolute most disgusting scum in our country and interview them for their opinions...

WANTED: KATHY WYLDE

For contributing to social murder, ideologically justifying excess deaths among the lower classes in order to keep the upper class hierarchy.

That's an interesting way of phrasing "has actively enabled corruption for decades".

Oh no. Anyway...

Actually unreadable with the size thing and bloat
