    By today's republican appeal - putting 10 people in a room, one being Trump then having Trump say fork it over, and they all do.

    Both Partys give to the rich... especially during the Obama administration.

    But yes, the Pubs give to the rich.

    How are you Dyno? Nice to see you posting. Hope all is well with you and your loved ones.

    The circumstantial evidence that the FBI admits, it's real and is a higher burden of proof than was used to find Trump libel in the CIVIL lawsuit in NY recently. That diary has supposedly been authenticated as Biden's daughter's REAL diary. Trump had to prove his innocents... which at this point in time is impossible.

    I don't know. You get what you earn?

    That seems more fair than the proverbial averaging out the A students with the D students.

    Learn to write. You said 'You get what you earn'. If you meant 'You get what you earn after taxes' you should have written that. And that's the whole point. How do we distribute wealth? You clearly don't think we should do it democratically.

    You get what you earn and you still pay taxes. I'm not an anarchist who doesn't think we should have a police force or government.

    I just don't think inequity (one guy earning less than another) is a sign of injustice. You seem to disagree.

    Learn to read. I haven't said anything about injustice. How do we decide how much to tax people?

    Allowing someone to keep more of their own money is not a "giveaway."

    The rich pay the bulk of taxes in this country even after Republican tax cuts, and it's not close.

    We elect representatives who draw the line as to how much should be taxed.

    Neither side generally wants to tax at 100% or at 0%. So what we have is people drawing the lines as to where the ideal number is.

    Okay. What do you think inequity is a sign of?
