So Democrats like Corey Booker want to offer tax cuts to working Americans. That's pennies compared to what the rich steal from us every day. Our tax cuts won't amount to a fraction of what the people need. What we NEED is 100% taxes on the wealthy, including their wealth as well as their income. Ditto for corporations. This is just another trick by Democrats to keep capitalism surviving and exploiting us all. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/elections/tax-cuts-are-hot-new-idea-democrats-candidates-2026-2028-rcna264454 #Politics #Democrats #TaxCuts

    @Quasit What we need is for workers to be paid for the value of both their time and their output, instead of some arbitrary 'minimum' amount that lets the employer sell off most of the value they get from workers as shares to "passive income" earners. If we were paid the true value of our labor, we would not need 401K ball-and-chains.

    @Quasit Its a trick to make you forget that Luigi Mangione had the right answer.
