    I missed it where Kamala asked for the government to own the means of production. Can you please cite this for me?

    Candidates promising to increase government spending (various new programs and subsidies) and reduce taxes (SS, tips).

    Meanwhile we have a $35 trillion debt and $1.5 trillion deficit.

    Lets keep kicking this can down the road until it explodes under sombody else's watch is a responsible thing to do.

    probably around the same time that trump convinced republicans and so-called conservatives that tariffs are paid for by china and not the american consumer.

    Candidates that are going to tax corporations and the rich at the proper rate can do such things.

    Eisenhower taxed corporation at 87% on profit.

    Eliminate buy backs - or make them taxable revenue and tax corp properly, eliiminate the borrowing against your assets not counted as revenue if they are stock related, and this country will go back to flourishing.

    And before any numbnuts said it is taxing UNREALIZED gains,.....you do that every year with your house.

    Thanks for proving my point.

    You felt the need to interject into a conversation you weren't involved in -- then when asked for specifics about your assertion, you ran.

    Not your first time being a lame maggot.

    unlike right-wingers and trumpers who actually believe trump when he tells you that china pays for tariffs and also believe that kamala harris is a communist for proposing price controls, but trump is not when he imposes tariffs, which are a form of price control.

    Yeah those low tax rates really worked out from 1925-1931. Great economic times.
