    This won't make or very happy, but the rest of us like there to be some limits on government intrusiveness. Let's hope holds firm for taxpayers.

    BANK REPORTING : clarifies to me he opposed bank reporting no matter what the threshold. “No one should be in anyones bank account “

    Yes, there's a problem, . According to Prof. Nordhaus at Yale, successful entrepreneurs only capture 2.2% of the wealth they generate (with the rest of us getting the other 97.8%), so we'd be much better off if there were a lot more billionaires.

    By the way, 131 new billionaires were created during an economically-catastrophic pandemic. Does anyone else see a problem with this picture?

    Biden and his congressional allies are so desperate to finance a new spending binge that they're pushing for crazy tax-hike ideas that haven't even been tried in taxaholic nations such as France and Greece

    Taxing unrealized gains (i.e., gains that only exist on paper) is such a dumb idea that no other nation - not even tax hells such as France or Greece - has ever imposed this destructive levy.

    Why taxing unrealized capital gains is a nutty idea that “represents an economic disaster from start to finish and should be rejected by serious-minded Americans of all political persuasions”

    Taxing increases in wealth that only exist on paper is only a good idea if you want less investment and nightmarish tax complexity.

    When the cheerleaders for higher taxes lead by example, I still won't agree with them, but at least they won't be smarmy hypocrites

    I don't think the President is lying because that would imply he actually understood why his tweet was inaccurate

    If you want lower prices for healthcare, the right prescription is to reduce the role of government

    At the risk of stating the obvious, the President shouldn't be trying to copy Italy's last-place tax system

    I would like someone on the left to look at 's chart and give me their best explanation for why this isn't evidence that free markets are far superior to socialism (I won't be holding my breath awaiting a response)

    Exactly. Small businesses and new entrepreneurs are the ones being targeted by Biden's plan to let the IRS automatically get data about our bank accounts.

    The $600 bank account measure isn't for the rich... it's for the black market systems forced by gov't regulations. Think...the lady doing hair out her house with no license...

    Since is willing to claim that $3.5 trillion of new spending has no cost, I guess we shouldn't be surprised that he's willing to also lie about corporate taxation.

    It isn’t right that 55 of our largest corporations paid zero in federal income taxes on $40 billion of profits in 2020. It needs to change.

    Spot on. Hoover and Roosevelt kept the economy on the canvas with a toxic mix of high tax rates, wasteful spending, protectionism, and regulatory interference.

    The Great Depression of the 1930s, in which millions of people were plunged into poverty in even the most prosperous nations, was needlessly prolonged by government policies now recognized in retrospect as foolish and irresponsible.

    Copying Europe's childcare subsidies is bad economic policy...and bad demographic policy

    Imagine being so amoral (or is it immoral?) that you try to claim it was a positive thing to have food shortages in communist countries?

    The Biden Administration thinks we're all criminals and wants the IRS to have automatic access to our bank accounts in hopes of grabbing more tax revenue to buy more votes

    If we copy Sweden, lower-income and middle-class taxpayers will be pillaged

    Poor countries can become rich countries (and it can happen more quickly if they ignore the IMF)

    I'm not a fan of basing public policy on polling data, but if these new numbers help defeat Biden's tax-and-spend agenda, I won't complain

    Expressing any level of support for communist totalitarianism should be a disqualifying factor for any nominee to any position, just as we should have a similar rule for those who express any sort of sympathy for Nazism
