    The far left Democrat will probably advocate for policies that increase the tax contributions of those who can afford a fleet of 20 LaFerraris and corporations who try to squirm out of any tax contributions.

    I'm sure the far left candidate will promise massive entitlements ("free college", cancellation of student debt, medicare for all, free child care for all etc.. etc...) costing 10's of trillions of dollars and assure everyone the 1% will pay for all of it.

    Nothing to indicate that Trump is better than far left guy/gal. Trump is having us on a brink of war and we all know where that ends up a in terms of deficit. Regardless, so far it looks pretty good for my plan. Sounds like you on the other hand will keep voting for bridge to nowhere. (If we are to believe you anyway)

    You can't even construct sentences. I'm not too worried about your thoughts.

    Classy for you and others to keep asserting I'm a liar though. :rolleyes:

    That wasn't an allusion to Trump.

    The top 1% can just pack their bags and money, and move to a tax haven, while the good old USA burns to the ground.

    That's not gonna happen. If they have to pay a little more in the biggest economy in the world they will. Hell even Apple is pulling about 1/3 of production from China. ;)

    I looked at a more extensive chart on this topic - this one by senate majority - still shows democrats to be the more fiscally responsible, although the medicare is getting out of control and neither party seem to have a solution for that (and the obama spike is in big part due to financial deregulation caused housing bubble - yay for libertarians):

    The dirty tricks are coming from outside and inside it appears...

    Trolls target online polls following first Democratic presidential debate
    Users from pro-Trump communities on 4chan and Reddit implored fellow members to vote for lower-polling candidates, specifically Tulsi Gabbard and Bill de Blasio.

    Watching the 1st debate, I'd say Castro did the best.

    Tulsi did pretty bad the entire time... until that last second ass whooping on Paul Ryans little brother Timmy.

    Also, I just have to note, Amy Klobuchar has the derpiest facial expressions I've seen in a long time. I couldn't get this image out my mind every time I saw her

    What is it with Gabbard and russia?

    She needs to speak out about this or it will tarnish her reputation.

    If she goes independent I see her being on the payroll.
