Should also compare the increase in the wealth percentage confiscated by the government over the period.

Because...and this is actually quite funny...when we used to bring this up years ago, we’d be accused of...wait for it...inter-generational warfare!!

Ah the days before social media where 2 generations controlled our ability to compare notes


We exported it to China and imported illegal immigrants - the middle class got hammered from both sides with complicit administrations until now....

There are a lot of people like you who worked, saved and did without instant gratification to put money into IRAs, etc. for their retirements.

But the socialist-democrats only see us as piggy banks to be broken into and raided - for their own power.

Lizzie is bragging about having a wealth tax. She's not entirely stupid, so is claiming it will only be on the super-rich.

Can anyone name a tax that was started by claiming it would be "on the rich" or "limited" by percentage, that didn't eventually reach into middle-class pockets?

We have to stop them, and at least make them regroup in 2020!
