Democrats Pin Midterm Hopes on Tax Hike Plan
2018-03-12
[LI] Earlier this week Senate Democrats introduced a tax plan designed to show what Democrats can be expected to do should they win back majorities in Congress.

Their press release refers to their avoidance of "gimmicks and giveaways"; this appears to be a reference to the bonuses, pay raises, and private sector investment and job creation afforded by the new tax law. All of which, the Democrat proposal would roll back.

The Democrat’s plan calls for new taxes, rolling back the death tax, cutting off the "crumbs" that are making their way into Americans’ wallets, and $1 trillion in infrastructure spending, among other items.

#6  Seems like they are fighting to secure the bluest of the blue districts from the further left. Not a great position to be in.

#5  By rolling back the death tax I assume they mean rolling it back out of the grave, like Lazarus...

#4  That's a winning platform for sure (sarc). What euphemisms are they going to use to spin and sell their B.S.?

#3  Show the workers on the plantation, that the resources and income they generate belongs to the those up in the manor house. Explain to them that they should he happy with what the masters leave them.

#2  Yep - please run on tax hikes, expanding welfare rolls, importing millions more illegal immigrants, general anti-white and anti-male sentiment, abolishing ICE, 'climate change' and Russiagate. It's a sure-fire plan!
