You can tax all sorts of things that effectively eliminates that class. Capital gains, assets, income, etc. Choose a number and tax the shit out of anything above it. I don't even think the government needs that much money - but I really don't want that class to exist anymore. Let's make it happen.
I watched a few clips. Her behavior in the hearing was abhorrent. And her overall job performance is shameful. I wish she'd slither back into whatever hole she came from.
I kinda feel bad for this lady. I mean, we don't know why she's kept such a terrible job (is it the benefits for a sick kiddo, or she's trying but the economy is shit, or something else entirely). Not everyone has the luxury to up and quit a job.
If you don't feel like your representatives are adequately representing you (God knows I don't), this is a good time to find a primary candidate to support (monetarily or with your time) - or even file to run yourself. Every house representative is up for reelection in November.
There are moments in time when we need leaders to look well beyond party and politics - and we need them to recalibrate the system as a whole. Beyond the horrendous actions of our administration that need to be reigned by n and have consequences, we can't even have the right kinds of discussions because of money in politics and elected officials that have been in role for too long (or are too old). I am looking for the candidate who can do help to hit the reset button - and it sure as shit isn't my current representative. Does anyone know of there is anyone out there trying to get a new crop of Democrats into office?
Don't forget, Vance and Miller were out there telling everyone ICE has total immunity. They've got to go too. Keep the pressure on your elected officials.
Probably the immediate threat, but the long tail of consequences will go on for a while. Who would want to work with us when we have twice elected a guy like Trump? We are pretty unreliable partners at this point. 😕
