"The top tax rate should be risen to 90% not 70%" Rat would push it to 99% over $1B. If you can't live on a $1B income, you don't deserve to have money.

Sylvester, I don't really care if it is raised to 90% on the 10 millionth dollar. However, did you know that if we raised it to 70%, like Ocasio wants, it will only raise $189 Billion? How will that pay for the extra $3 trillion per year she wants to pay for her Green New Deal? Once again, you can raise taxes to 70% across all income levels and it will never be enough to pay for all that free shit you guys want. This is the problem with having an entire party that is math challenged. You can't seem to come up with proposals that work in the real world. That's Socialism for you. But never mind. Ocasio has a great solution...print money. We all know how great that works out. Weimar Germany, Zimbabwe, Venezuela....they all printed money.
