Pocahontas' muddy tax plan for funding trillion dollar new green deals

Speaking of young, Warren is moving fast to appear young and bright to Biden and doing a good job of it.

She is young and bright compared to dinosaur Joe Biden. Like Jezebel of old she has natural qualities which commend her before masses of people, as long as they don't examine too closely what she is like on the inside.
 
Democrats see themselves as spiritual guides of sort, whose destiny it is to lead the ignorant masses into the glorious one world government future whether they like it or not. It does not matter to the elitists what the cost in money or freedom, they just know the ignorant masses must be prepared to pay the cost to achieve that elitist democrat vision of heaven on earth.

To know who is funding her campaign is quite telling.

They only lived on this continent for 10.000 years and didn't completely pollute it and destroy the environment. Left it in pretty good shape for us white European invaders to come and take it from them. And look what we have done to it in about 300 years.

And it isn't like the natives were any more or less prone to violence than the rest of humanity.

Oh... and those 'trinkets' were a treasure to a land that, until that time, had nothing like it anywhere.
:(
It never fails to sadden me when I see people who don't really understand what racism really is.

People who know nothing of the love of God tend to look at others and think evil of them. Calling others racist is just one example of how people of hate look at others they do not like.
 
The environment is not that bad.

In 500 years we have built cities and gone into space and screwed up by putting our feet on the moon, just like we're screwing up now by electing Republicans who give us tax break without paying the bills.

That is why Pocahontas will not say she will not raise taxes on the middle class. She sees low taxes as a republican attack on a vibrant society. I see wasteful government spending as the attack on American taxpayers. New skyrocketing government spending is unaffordable in our present national debt situation and promising trillions in new spending as either lying or insanely stupid and irresponsible.
 
Nonsense, cutting social programs won't make a drop in the bucket.

We need to cut health care and military spending by fifty percent without toppling the economy.

Do this with a Federal vegan program.

The democrat 'hippie' solution to the debt problem: 'Like, man, we need to do away with the army and guns and give people free drugs and stuff to help spread peace around the earth instead of violence.'

LOL,

there were never more than 20 MILLION people at one time for most of the past 10,000 years, but they did damage the environment anyway. The Indians were as prone to violence as we have been, did you even read history at all?
 
Except that didn't happen.

There is no need to lie for her, all the facts have come out for everyone to see. Harvard touted her as their very own minority woman of color for years. There is no hiding the truth now.
 
Trump voters really have taken on the personality of their father figure (Trump) haven't they? they use the same words even.

I bet they tweet like him too. No clue if they're religious like him or treat their wives and mistresses the same way.
 

Exactly. The richer the supporter or group has gotten off government spending and regulation, the more those groups have donated to her campaign. She has dismal support levels from labor. She is not for the little guy or average American taxpayer in spite of her false claim of being just a poor minority woman of color standing up to the rich to help the poor.
 
Yes it is. Why else would you call her that? Explain to me why the name "Pocahontas" is necessary.

I've always held the opinion that it was pretty crappy for anyone to actually use Pocahontas as an insult to begin with. Doesn't even make sense to do so. Pocahontas was well respected among the people and worked so hard to bring people together.

Even Darwin predicted the human savages (his term) would be annihilated over time by the supposedly superior, better evolved humans.

Calling Pocahontas Warren an Indian is no more disrespectful than calling Rachel Dolezal a black woman or calling Richard Blumenthal a Vietnam war hero. The called themselves that, even though all of them were lying.
 
Pocahontas Warren is the first minority woman of color running for president who is both poor Native American Indian and also an all white rich privileged class hoe. She is offering to give so many things away that it is hard to keep track of the mounting costs of everything she is promising. However, she does provide answers to key questions, which go somewhat like this:

Interviewer (I): Your new green deal proposals carry a potential price tag of $3-$4 trillion a year in new costs. How do you propose to pay for these costs?

Pocahontas (P): As you know there will be huge costs savings resulting from the implementation of these great new deals, whether in climate change, college tuition, free healthcare or whatever.

I: The CBO estimates the trillions of dollars in new costs figured in their estimates already have incorporated any savings.

P: The CBO tends to be too conservative, but savings are not the only benefit we will receive from these new government mandated programs.

I: But how are we going to pay for these expensive new programs?

P: I will raise taxes on the rich so they will finally be paying their fair share of the costs.

I: But you will possibly get only about $1 trillion in additional revenues if the rich are taxed at the highest possible rate according to the CBO. Does that mean you see raising taxes on the middle class as well?

P: You need to understand that everyone's costs will be going down with universal healthcare.

I: But do you plan on raising taxes on the middle class?

P: Everybody pays taxes to benefit the whole country so nobody should think that unfair.

I: But I specifically asked if you plan to raise taxes on the middle class?

P: We will maintain tax fairness for all Americans under my plan.

I: But are you willing to raise taxes on the middle class if you think that is fair?

P: Tax policies must be decided in Congress and I will do everything possible to keep everyone's taxes fair.

Typical non-answer from a politician, but some people can look behind the smokescreen.

‘They won’t open the stock market if Elizabeth Warren is the next president.’
That’s Leon Cooperman, the billionaire boss at Omega Advisors, joking to a crowd at the Delivering Alpha conference in New York this week about what a win for the left could ultimately mean for investors.

He wasn’t joking, however, in his belief that somebody like Elizabeth Warren in the White House would be disastrous for the stock market.

“The Democratic Party seems to be leaning towards the left on policies, which is very harmful for the economy. I don’t like the shift to the left,” he explained to CNBC, adding that the market, of course, will open, but it won’t be pretty.

“It would be a bear market and they go on for a year and go down 25%,” he said. “You don’t make the poor people rich by making rich people poor.”

Billionaire investor on Elizabeth Warren as president: Market might not even open - MarketWatch

Now me? I don't give much of a rat's ass about Wall Street, but no matter who the Dem nominee is, that person will be disastrous for Main Street. That's how you make poor people poorer, while making rich people richer.
 
LOL,

I read an article a short while back making the argument that the Southwest's great plains were once heavily forested and the Native Americans burnt the forests to gain grazing area for the buffalo. I have no idea that that is the case, but there are lot of petrified trees in the Southwest.

If that's true then it's a huge example of humans altering the environment to suit their needs.
 
There is no need to lie for her, all the facts have come out for everyone to see. Harvard touted her as their very own minority woman of color for years. There is no hiding the truth now.

And what advantages did Harvard get for that?
 
Get used to it. If the left actually nominates this faux minority, it will only get worse.

Oh, I'm used to trump and his supporters' lack of class. I just don't have to like it.
 
And what advantages did Harvard get for that?

I suppose the leftist administrators thought it was a good idea to promote the rich privileged white woman as a minority woman of color, but I don't know why they thought that.

So nothing more than pure speculation?

Its going to be paid for by replacing healthcare premiums with a payroll tax.
 
We are already paying through the nose on the debt we already owe. It is a stupid lie to propose tripling the size of our debt through new deal spending while promising reduced taxes for the middle class.

I'm counting on Congress holding the purse strings not the President.
 
She is young and bright compared to dinosaur Joe Biden. Like Jezebel of old she has natural qualities which commend her before masses of people, as long as they don't examine too closely what she is like on the inside.

What are we all like on the inside?

So your critique is not valid.

All our politicians do the same thing, they put together a package that looks good at first glance but really is all lies and they don't know what they're going to do but get to rule.
 
That is why Pocahontas will not say she will not raise taxes on the middle class. She sees low taxes as a republican attack on a vibrant society. I see wasteful government spending as the attack on American taxpayers.

Doubtful this is what she sees.

I'm not sure how much "waste" could be trimmed, sounds like a buzz word to me.

Refer to my previous post.
 
I think Pocahontas calling herself a minority woman of color when she is nothing more than a rich privileged white hoe is disrespectful to minorities.

Huh. Good thing she never called herself that, in that case.
 
The democrat 'hippie' solution to the debt problem: 'Like, man, we need to do away with the army and guns and give people free drugs and stuff to help spread peace around the earth instead of violence.'

No, it's a practical solution, by eating less meat and slaughtering fewer animals we will become less violent, less prone to ignorance and conflict and out health will improve.

I suggest we go this way before we're made too.
