tariffs on european steel and manufactured goods?

Which disproportionally affects the poor

yikes

thats pretty moderate for a dem tho

lol

I'm not completely opposed to a flat tax across the board, because it would be *fair* at the very least. But it's not something that is going to have any sort of support.

Fuck over the poor? Yeah it's a typical dem thing

yup

Fuck over the poor while telling them you're their best friend

Well Taxation IS theft

@ℙ𝕖𝕟𝕚𝕤 ℂ𝕙𝕣𝕚𝕤𝕥 and when they wise up, shame them for voting against their interests

To the higher echelons of earners, it looks pretty damn close to theft

Not when they don't pay them<:covfefe:440543908846632980>

Gotta love Tax havens

`The fledgling Republican Party led by Abraham Lincoln, who called himself a "Henry Clay tariff Whig", strongly opposed free trade, and implemented a 44-percent tariff during the Civil War—in part to pay for railroad subsidies and for the war effort, and to protect favored industries. In 1847, he declared: "Give us a protective tariff, and we shall have the greatest nation on earth",.`
based and redpilled

I have a hard time blaming anyone for avoiding taxes

The Whig party is cancer

henry clay was extremely based though

`After the war, Clay returned to his position as speaker of the House and developed the American System, which called for federal infrastructure investments, support for the national bank, and protective tariff rates.`

wtf i love lincoln now

You didn't b4 <:thronk:441701565607444482>

no

failed to deport the africans to liberia

double plus bad

Suspending habeas corpus was pretty fuckin bad

Lincoln was a mixed president but was pretty based for freeing the slaves

that was the worst part 😦

<:think_hitlerdidnothingwrong:378717099952177162>

he should of enslaved the mexicans to

that would be based

^

the civil war would never have happened

America needed a radical for change to occur

It decided the fate of our country

Purge the enemies of the constitution

Down with the Traitors and up with the stars!

legit though if lincoln had managed to deport all the africans instead of them becoming full citizens equal to whites, he would have been probably the most based president of all time

damn

cripple the economy

why not

I mean
