He’s full of it. Doesn’t know what he is talking about. A liar just like all of the politicians. President Joe Biden’s revenue proposal for fiscal year 2025 would impose a minimum tax of 25% on total income, including unrealized capital gains, for all taxpayers with wealth greater than $100 million-part of Biden’s longstanding effort to make the rich pay what he calls their “fair share.” A Kamala Harris campaign aide confirmed to Barron’s that the vice president supports all the revenue-raising proposals in President Biden’s 2025 budget, including this one.

Her plan for lowering food prices is perhaps the most frightening thing she will do from a personal perspective. My career I've held with the same grocery retailer for 30 years will clearly be financially jeopardized if she does this. Either my raise will be denied, my benefits will cost me more or possibly be reduced or even eliminated, or worse I'll lose the whole job altogether. FKH!

This actually makes perfect sense. What do they do to people who can't pay their taxes? People need to step away from the politics and start paying attention to what they are trying to accomplish. The rich think different. "By 2030 you will own nothing and be happy". Just look at the damage the first half of this regime has already caused.

[@AntisocialRedNeckNerd]

I worked at a locally owned grocery story in Austin, Texas when I was in high school. A few blocks away was a Safeway store. During my time working in this locally owned store, the Nixon administration implemented price controls on beef. The pricing resulted in the cost of the product being higher that the price that stores could charge. The owner of our store was also a rancher. He had his cattle taken to the processing center and paid for the processing. Our store had a counter full of beef. The demand was so high, I was sent to the market to help. The manager of the Safeway came to our store and purchased a shopping cart full of meat for his family. I was surprised to see him in our store. When I got off work, I drove to the Safeway. The store had a far bigger meat counter than our store had but it was mostly empty. There was a small section of tongue, other wise no meat. No beef, chicken or pork. Nixon soon reversed the policy but I saw first hand that government price controls result in shortages and do not help. We need less government involvement, not more.

[@iamnotafraid]

Kamala's solution to that would be making it illegal for stores to have empty shelves.
