Re: Democratic debates
first, if you want you can have free health care, go to the ER, get treated, give them an invalid SSN and let the taxpayers pay for it. that's been one of the hidden costs of illegal immigration.
second, you realize that in the 50s the US had a marginal tax rate exceeding 90%, and it was 70% in the 70s. so acting like having a higher maximum tax rate is some weird/alien or anti-american thing is, well... history extends beyond 1980.
now, if you want to actually enact tax hikes, good luck. it's a tough sell, and the republicans have convinced a LOT of people to vote against their own interests as far as tax and services are involved.
you could close the corporate loopholes though. no more dutch sandwiches and whatever other crazy tax evasion schemes we've got going on. david letterman shouldn't be getting farm subsidies. just saying.
