Now Joe/Pelosi/Chuck are saying they will just borrow in everyone's name to fund their 'utopia' and the tax rates on the rich will not be changed. Malarkey Joe, con man.

Now the word is Joe and the Democrats want to use 'reconciliation' to pass Joe's next $2 Trillion spending spree. That will bring the total in his first year in office to $4 Trillion of debt spending in his first 6 months in office.
And now, in this discussion is zero talk of taxing the rich. Apparently what Joe really meant about the $400K tax marker was that everyone making UNDER $400K/year will pay for his grandiose spending.
No more stimulus funding packages for Joe!!!!!

Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.
I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.
I have said multiple times that in order for there to be any tax hikes there should first be a full audit of the federal government. The government should first tighten it's own belt before forcing us to pay more.
Now, if any leftists actually participate in this thread they will inevitably claim we never cared about Trump's spending which is a complete lie as many of us have criticized Trump's spending.
Boo, while I appreciate your post the point remains. Joe's entire premise from the start has been the rich need to pay their fair share. Now he's talking about all this spending in the name of all Americans, not just those who make over $400K/year.
This is unacceptable.

It's always like that because the there isn't enough money to pay for everything especially if you plan to tax only one tax bracket. There are more middle class people than rich people. That is where the money truly is.So, basically the democrats have been waging a war on the working classes for decades.
