OldTimeAFLGuy Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 ...Lizzie "on the loose".......... Warren’s ‘fantasy’ wealth tax: Here’s all the programs 2020 Dem claims to cover with funding trick By Tyler Olson | Fox News As the progressive wing of the Democratic Party pushes an agenda that asks millionaires and billionaires to pay higher taxes to fund ambitious social programs, 2020 hopeful Elizabeth Warren has made an unprecedented tax proposal on accumulated wealth a centerpiece of her campaign. And nearly a year into her presidential bid, that wealth tax has become a central funding mechanism for a host of major policy proposals — despite lingering doubts about its constitutionality and whether it can generate the cash flow she promises. Warren has connected the wealth tax to no fewer than eight separate initiatives: Student debt cancellation Universal childcare Universal pre-k $800 billion in new federal funding for public schools Tuition-free college $50 billion for Historically Black Colleges and Universities $1 trillion for "Medicare-for-all" Tackling the opioid crisis https://www.foxnews.com/politics/warrens-wealth-tax-heres-all-the-programs-2020-dem-claims-to-cover-with-funding-trick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCal Deek Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Elizabeth Warren is nothing more than an old, frustrated school teacher complaining in the staff lounge on her lunch hour. The majority of her proposals are nothing more than a rewording of the typical teacher’s union cries for expanding the ‘state’ run education machine by extending government funding on either end of our already severely underperforming K12 system. And where does the money come from? Why get it from the private sector of course! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Origin While it's unclear where exactly "Karen" began seeing use as a pejorative character, it perhaps started with the Oh My God, Karen, You Can’t Just Ask Someone Why They're White meme from Mean Girls. Others believe that the popularity of the name may come from the character Karen from the 1989 gangster film Goodfellas (clip below). https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/karen I'd wager that's as close as you're going to get.
