    I support all of this.
    I think that Corporate Tax Rate could be higher. . . .

    I like that she wants to tackle the issue of first time homebuyers, however, I'm not sure how giving first time home buyers a tax credit plus down payment support is not going to cause for prices to continue to being elevated. If demand is up and you can only put out so much supply, how is a homeowner going to be able to afford the home? I guess at least it does provide assistance for those individuals with a subpar credit score that does not have a down payment. Seems like a mess to me that will lead to further inflation in the housing market, but I can't fault for wanting to move in the right direction.

    Also, you mention "penalties" on landlord that owns too many properties, but from reading the article, it appears to be more grounded on not allowing them to take advantage of tax breaks based on number of properties they own. I'd imagine the work around for something like this is to set up different trust funds? I do like the proposal.

    With all the programs she is proposing, she really should be proposing to raise the corporate tax rate to 35%. They need to be paid for somehow. I know individuals keep telling me that we are going to be in debt for the rest of the country's life, but is it smart to continue running these deficits forever? I just hate kicking the can down the road and would like to tighten the budget where we can.

    Under Eisenhower it was 87%.......

    Reagan screwed us when he lowered the tax rate on the rich from 70% to 28%......and tripled the national debt....

    Ronald Reagan was the start of this bullshit era.

    Thank you. We pretty much see eye to eye and I wholeheartedly agree wer we're in trouble if Trump is elected. I just don't trust Harris either otherwise she'd get my vote

    I was a fan of Obama and Bill Clinton. Bush Jr as well but not him once he got in office for obvious reasons.

    On the rest of your post you don't know anything at all about how I think but I respect your opinion even if you don't seem to mine. I will say that you have me totally wrong but thats ok

    Only culture wars brain rot would make someone "like Obama supporters" and not "Kamala supporters". They are mostly the same people.

    It's very easy to see through your fakeness. You are just a generic right winger who is ashed that Donald Trump is the intellectual leader of the right. I know too many people like this in my personal life who espouse right wing talking points all the time and pretend they used to be "okay with Obama" but "the woke left moved past me".

    Why do right wing men always preload their victim complex?

    I notice this about people like you. You always have to signal a lot how you are persecuted first and then express an opinion from a fake fear of being harmed or something. Why is that?

    Of course you don't know, spreading potential misinformation is like breathing to you.

    Is this how you learn about how society operates?

    Now if you were sincere you'd read up on actual policies in sanctuary cities.

    They have nothing to do with enforcement of crimes like theft, murder, sex crimes etc.

    The only thing a "Sanctuary city" means is that the local law enforcement will not do the work of ICE or the border patrol. They won't detainw someone just because they broke immigration laws. It isn't their jurisdiction. They aren't going to prevent ICE from coming in to arrest migrants.

    The idea that a cop won't arrest and detain a suspected murderer because he's illegal is insane. You should be ashamed if you are an adult to even consider that a thing.

    Why would you even believe that?

    You should be sorry wasting your time trying to convince anyone in a NBA team fan message board that isn't a die hard maga person that you aren't anything other than a right wing troll. Why even invest any time in such a odd endeavor?

    Then this cop is admitting to obstruction of justice in a murder case and should arrested and prosecuted.

    Luckily though for him we all know he’s lying. Being an illegal immigrant doesn’t mean that you have immunity from murder. Literally the only two people in this country with immunity from committing murder are Donald Trump and Joe Biden per the Supreme Court.

    This post is just pure propaganda and lies just like the ridiculous lies that Democrats execute babies after they are born. Utterly stupid and the only people who believe it are already in the MAGa cult.

    Lik I really want to understand the mentality of someone who comes into a message board like this with @StroudAndYorDaddy


    I can only think of three options:

    1. Leftist trying to portray right wingers as extremely media illiterate and stupid.

    2. Right winger who wants to just exist to trigger people they hate.

    3. An actual mind of a 12 year rold operating right before us.


    Which one is it? I don't know.

    You know you're a partisan hack when you only criticize the other team for doing it

    Show me where Kamala Harris or Tim Walz has pushed that a nuclear family is wrong.... I can show you multiple odd statements from JD Vance about women and having children etc.... show me where Harris or Walz has said that the nuclear family is wrong.... going to be hard because they both.... have nuclear families.

    I could make an argument that the GOP is against the nuclear family when they are anti-union, anti-welfare, anti-minimum wage which are all polices that hurt the formation of nuclear families.

    The cost of child testing and living is the number one reason why nuclear families aren't as common.

    If that helps you sleep at night it's cool. You'll never get another response out of me. If that was your objective good for you.
