Tax credits...those things that help the wealthy more.

2018-03-10 20:15:27 UTC  

But your argument was that it also helps others

2018-03-10 20:15:45 UTC  

Which enables them to oppress the people even more.

2018-03-10 20:15:51 UTC  

In the tax code, tax credits are specified separately

2018-03-10 20:15:57 UTC  

The more power and money the wealthy have, the less control the people have of their own lives.

2018-03-10 20:16:19 UTC  

That is true, but you said earlier that government never helped the poor

2018-03-10 20:16:26 UTC  

The system we have in place is corporate monarchy.

2018-03-10 20:16:27 UTC  

Which just isnt true

2018-03-10 20:16:40 UTC  

They haven't solely helped the poor.

2018-03-10 20:16:43 UTC  

Ok

2018-03-10 20:16:46 UTC  

It's all trickle-down.

2018-03-10 20:16:49 UTC  

Thats a very different thing to say

2018-03-10 20:17:00 UTC  

It's the same thing I said earlier.

2018-03-10 20:17:10 UTC  

You just misunderstood my statement.

2018-03-10 20:17:40 UTC  

Yes.

2018-03-10 20:18:00 UTC  

Those tax credits gave the wealthy more power and the poor less power.

2018-03-10 20:18:06 UTC  

You just admitted its helped the poor, just not solelu

2018-03-10 20:18:19 UTC  

I will clarify everything that I'm saying in one sentence.

2018-03-10 20:18:21 UTC  

Not all tax credits are the same.

2018-03-10 20:18:25 UTC  

Dude

2018-03-10 20:18:36 UTC  

Government has yet to, in modern history, directly help the poor.

2018-03-10 20:18:40 UTC  

You cant just add contradictory statements

2018-03-10 20:18:51 UTC  

It's elaborating and clarifying, not contradicting.

2018-03-10 20:18:58 UTC  

Low income tax credits are added independently of others

2018-03-10 20:19:32 UTC  

It's all part of one movement.

2018-03-10 20:19:37 UTC  

Look i get what youre saying, but you have to admit that the statement you made about never helping the poor is wrong

2018-03-10 20:19:40 UTC  

Tax credits in general.

2018-03-10 20:19:50 UTC  

Never *solely* helping the poor is a different argument

2018-03-10 20:19:54 UTC  

Big business and wealthy people benefitted much more than low income families.

2018-03-10 20:19:55 UTC  

.

2018-03-10 20:20:00 UTC  

oof semantical arguments

2018-03-10 20:20:04 UTC  

Exchange solely for directly.

2018-03-10 20:20:10 UTC  

Theres no reason to talk about tax credits in general

2018-03-10 20:20:18 UTC  

Government has never made an effort to directly help the people.

2018-03-10 20:20:20 UTC  

I specifically said low income tax credits

2018-03-10 20:20:39 UTC  

You forget about the high income tax credits.

2018-03-10 20:20:45 UTC  

No i dont

2018-03-10 20:20:51 UTC  

It's all part of one movement/system.

2018-03-10 20:20:59 UTC  

But i only need to provide a counterexample to your argument

2018-03-10 20:21:03 UTC  

No, it isnt
