Sanders wants to tax .5% for each stock trade in order to fund climate change, single payer health and eliminate all student debt. That means a 25k trade will cost $125 to fund Sander's initiatives.
No way will I be voting for Sanders.

I will be investigating the other Dem tax proposals on trades - though his proposals are popular among the Progressives candidates. Warren seems to be on board, along with Obama II ( Harris).

If this is what Progressive politics has become, count me out. I am a laissez-faire liberal.

These Progressives are on my shit list. Harris got there after retracting her statement supporting single payer after insurance objections.
