A case in point is the 2017 tax cut v. the college loan debt crisis. The tax cut (83 cents of every $ went to richest people & corp) cost $2T, and the loan debt is less than that. The 2017 tax cut should be repealed, although the middle class tax cut part of it should be kept in.

See what really went on there. We're told the tax cut was an economic stimulant - which it wasn't. THE REAL ECONOMIC STIMULANT WOULD BE TO REMOVE THE COLLEGE LOAN DEBT ENTIRELY. The release of creativity & productivity would immense, creating wealth across the board for everyone.

So my proposal is not a plan that reduces the debt. My proposal is that the American people wake up on this one, realize how bamboozled we have been by trickle down economic theory for the last 40 years & ask for what we really want: Not just to reduce the debt. REMOVE THE DEBT.

I'm pretty sure we're told we don't have the money because our current obligations equal 78% of the entire country's annual GDP.

Of course, you know her point is that we gave trillions of dollars to billionaires, which is why "we don't have the money." The nanny state for the rich has plundered the taxpayers' pockets, and are now claiming "sorry, nothing left in the wallet, kids!"

Meanwhile they print money freely for things such as war, tax cuts for the rich, and border defense (including separating kids from their parents).

Middle America gets the most of the tax cuts and pays equally and feeds the rest of the country. When you speaking for them, then I'll start listening.

Where can I find the supporting data for your assertion that “Middle America gets most of the tax cuts”?I’d love to have that. Thanks.
