Under Reagan it was around 20

Or less

She didn't propose a 70% effective tax rate

Then what’s the point of having a 70% tax rate if it doesn’t even work

lol

You’re just going to put the burden on the middle class then I presume

Not to mention you’ll Over spend thinking revenue is coming

A 70% marginal rate was never intended to collect 70% of one’s income lamo

@Toro guys make questionable moves sure

but when they make those moves everyone gets pissed asf

rarely will they get away with no consequences

but when women act similar people don't take it nearly as seriously

I'm glad its different where you live but from my experience, people don't get particularly pissed at stuff like that

In most cases, it's different when a women hits a man then when a man hits a women

Men are physically the stronger sex

ye

It's because men are (generally) the physically stronger sex, situations like that are treated differently because of that

Idk, if that's anti-left but it's true that men are naturally stronger. When it comes to intelligence I think women should be treated the same as men because it's an equal playing field, no natural advantage.

Yeah, and I understand the distaste for saying it but it's true. Personally, I think people should be judged on things they can control. That includes women

Woman's place is in the home, Man's place is in the workforce and the military. There can be exceptions made, but this should be the norm.

White birthrates have plummeted in these decades of sexual liberation, and many children who are born don't even have a parent around to raise them properly. Further, women and men are unhappier than ever before, as can easily be seen with the prevalence of suicide, depression, and material obsessions.

one alternative reason that can be considered for plummeting birthrates are marriage rights

getting married and having kids is a pretty bad deal for men compared to women

women can simply divorce their husband, 99% win custody rights over their children, find another spouse, collect child support from her ex

@Leo (BillNyeLand) then why have a tax rate so high if it’s only going to be 35% odd

Not 70

It had no positive impacts and will just deter foreign investment

And wealth will leave the country due to tax avoidance schemes

no point of it then

@Neco2040

That’s like asking (for something more trump-y) why we should build a wall if it doesn’t stop all illegal immigration

It doesn’t accomplish everything, but it doesn’t set out to accomplish everything, and it does accomplish a good amount (depending on your priorities)

It’ll collect more revenue from people who have more money than they could reasonably derive true benefit from

A wall stops 95% of border crossings

However an income tax like that has an effective rate of 35%

In other words you don’t change the amount of tax coming in

It’s just avoided

If anything you might deter investment

And doing these tax hikes will be accompanied with increased spending which will shift the burden into the middle class

I dunno why the democrats are against a 5.7B wall that actually helps America but are okay with 150B to Iran hoping that they don’t continue to try and develop WMD’s

It would increase revenue though
