Easy solution: don’t cancel debt for people who live in those states. Say the Republicans blocked it. Move forward with everyone else.

“Truthout” is just rage bait, even more so than more mainstream news media. They have no access to get interviews or direct reporting on the ground. Every article is just an opinion piece, whether they label it or not, because their goal is to enrage left wing readers.

Just genderswap the characters and nouns and see if it feels different to you as a result.

This is literally the best way to detect sexism. Like, would you say the same thing to someone of a different sex? Same thing with people who call assertive women “bitchy”. They would call a similar man “determined”.

Of course this comic is just rage bait for men and women…

This is legitimately the dumbest argument. You will just dismiss any commenters who disagree with you (“that’s your opinion, donate it to the government!”).

Besides, there are literal billionaires who will actually be affected by this clamoring for it. No one who has less than $100 million will be affected. No I don’t need a history lesson about income tax. If you want to live in a country without taxes, Somalia will welcome you.

P.S.: I have more than $20K in personal investments.

Lol. You are ignoring the fact that we already tax unrealized gains: property tax. And that’s actually harder to value than something on a stock market.

An “unknown number”? When you open your Robinhood app, does it show numbers? Because if it doesn’t I think you need to message their help desk.

The only proposals are for massive gains above $100 million. I think a 1% tax on that would be just fine.

This is also fake. Those are all incorrect.

You know the answer to this. Because the CEO at your company sucks but you still need the money. Many people, even those in your industry, do not wear suits at work. I guarantee it.
