    Dude has a good heart. He’s not a greedy piece of s--- like a lot of rich folks.

    People don’t realize that in the 40s and 50, the top tax rate for the rich was pretty high. Same for corporations. They used to pay their share and the safety net, social security and Medicare were fully funded. CEOs used to not make as much and they were still well off. Since the early 80s when Reagan’s racist a--- got elected our country has catered to greedy millionaires and billionaires. Our country has fallen off the cliff and promote the notion that greed is good.

    Modern Democrats are better than Republicans with taxing the rich, but not as good as they used to be. AOC and Ilhan Omar have the right vision to take the Democratic Party back to where it used to be in terms of looking out for people.

    Yes this is a good video. Many people start making 60,70,80k and get into the 6 figure numbers and get selfish and forget where they come from. I haven’t forget where I came from. Making that money even though it’s not millionaire s--- gets you disconnected from ordinary people and problems but you have to stay grounded. I hate rich people that don’t want to pay taxes or get around.s--- I make a pretty good salary, I make more than most Americans but I wouldn’t mind a tax increase if it’s fair but the more wealthy can take a tax hit. These rich people can afford to be taxes and they’ll be okay! You don’t need all that money. For what? To exploit workers. I really think they should start the proposed increases at 250k not 400k. It’s just a mindset that so many people feel entitled too, they are not connected
    To us and our problems and more taxes would make them more connected. I’m digressing but I’m so tired of it, and I think most Americans are tired of it too, we’ll see in a week I guess. It’s not okay being exploited and getting nothing in return! I wish people knew how to organize, unions should be everywhere. Okay I digress.

    People say you get more conservative as you get older. F that, I got more liberal the more I learned how f----- they are doing us. In 2016 I voted for Hillary but with my mindset I’d have to vote for Sanders back then (in the primary). Dems have to get Biden to hold over but we need the Bernie, AOC, Sanders, Illhan movement to gain ground.

    Sorry for late answer.

    Yea i know for a long time you supported Bernie, i like Berine but in capitalist country he could never bring the changes he wants.

    Taxes on the rich has always been a major point for presidents, they promise and dont fullfill. Not saying Trump doing great here but dont trust Bidens work or plan netiher. Politics fam, they say anything for votes. Again, in a capitalist country the rich prosper.

    Cant give you an answer on toxic pollution but i trust your word on that.

    Climate change on one hand is bs, not saying the climate is not changing. But we a miniority of countire sin the world giving a s--- about the climate today and it dont work like that, you cant have just the west doing there share. So just becuase Trump is giving power to those industries dosent chnage that much in the long run as you have multiple other countries the same s---, big countries. Trump always been about economy and jobs, he did deliver on that before covid-19 (Yes i think China created it, yes you can call me a conspiracy theoretic, but shut up if you dont have proof from where it came)

    And you think the dems will change s--- about wages? They have been in power before.

    As i said before, Trump cares about the economy, so thats why he always downplayed the virus. Trump is f----- up, but at the end, social distance works just as good and even better then a mask as wth a mask people think you can then be close to people. Sweden as dont great in that way, now we have the second wave. But then again my theory is that swedens hospital didnt care about the old people with covid thats why they high k--- rate of old people, thats there tactic, the goverment saves so much money by letting old people die. Sad but true.

    So just just Irans enemys USA and their butt buddies Israel and Saudi Arabia can have them? Im saying noone should have Nuclear Weapons but to say one should have and the other no? Iran wants to protect themselfs from Israel aswell.

    You may be right, but then again, Biden is not going for big changes, he is a Politician, run by lobbist.

    What i wanna say, I im not saying Trump is good, he is f---in crazy and fun to watch. But i dont trust a democratic canditate as Biden that is f---in idiot and liar too, he has been in politics over 40 years and has discriminated black people and minorites before. Why do people think he is the change ? And that he his better then Trump. Im want one Trump to win becaue of "his" foregin politics manily against a communist country as China. They f---in evil.

    Yes you can say im not from USA so i should not have a say in this, but i follow world politics alot and trust me, Biden will be Chinas puppet.

    No hard feelings fam, just great discussion :)

    It will last 4 weeks minimum, but the government is afraid to tell that we will stay locked for 8-12 weeks (you know the economy, popularity and their incompetence)

    Here’s my reply. We need this idiot out of power immediately. Biden is a career politician, but he’s not trying to divide people and ignore doctors and scientists during a pandemic. Trump and his followers are proud to be anti intellectuals.

    And I previously told you why he’s better than Trump overall. Biden is no good, but Trump is f---ing awful.

    thats unfair bro. I’m black. I didn’t vote for trump to be clear but everyone has different intentions for how they vote. Don't be so quick to let Identity politics categorize people. It's a slippery slope.
