While making the argument that you can't deny people their rights... by saying Trump should have his first amendment rights suspended. And she thinks it's a winning issue. 

 

She's an empty suit. Nothing more. 

 

Not entirely.  Rumors in this town say she has a few other hidden talents.

Warren was evasive and irritating.

 

Sanders was pretty strong but his heart attack will kick him out of the race relatively quickly.

 

Yang looked like he was just reading off a script half the time.

 

Gabbard was good in her limited time, but definitely got cut off at certain important (though admittedly impertinent) moments.

 

Biden was good. Not great, but good. He's just been steady throughout.

 

Harris, Booker, O'Rourke, and Castro were all MEH....

 

Steyer introduced himself well, if briefly.

 

Mayor Pete and Klobuchar destroyed everyone else in the relatively limited time they had.

 

I personally prefer both of those candidates over the 3 frontrunners, but let's be honest, these debates don't typically do much.

Dems truly need some fresh blood.  Front 3 just aren't going to cut it.  If this trade deal with China comes through, they won't win without someone new.

She’s not satisfied with an income tax, she wants to confiscate people’s wealth. 


And I would love to ask her this. What if someone’s wealth is illiquid?   If they have a net worth of $1b 2% of that is $20m. You’re going to make them liquidate assets to pay that. And guess what. Likely liquidate them ar a gain which creates MORE taxes. What the hell!

Yes, you must sell your Warhol prints, your collection of ship models, and your wife’s jewels. That will be enough for this year. We’ll be back for more NEXT year. 


That’s a good point. That tax will be due every year!!

Yep. They want your wealth and they'll take it until it's all gone. After all, it's only "fair." 

How soon before Warren embraces the confiscation of 401ks and IRAs that the Left floated a few years ago?

They want to take your money and guarantee a "reasonable" return with Federal bonds. 

They'll "cut out the middleman" i.e., the brokers, and fund managers, and investment firms and replace it was an efficient group of Federal Bureaucrats who will "manage" your retirement money. You know - like the ACA "managed" one's healthcare dollars.

Under a globalist communist party president, confiscation of 401ks will happen. 
 

Because of CBO accounting rules, 401k and IRA tax deferrals are scored as “tax-expenditures”, even though they are taxed when the owner withdraws assets. So it’s the second largest “tax-expenditure” after mortgage interest deduction. 
 

Get ready, it will happen.

That falls squarely in the pile of “things I will shoot people for”.

You live in LA.  Get out.  Enjoy yourself.  Kick a bum in the nuts!  I'd join you but we don't have any bums here in beautiful Laguna Niguel.  Sorry @IDBillzFan  It's ***** worth every damn penny here.  

 

It's worth every damn penny to you.

 

 

And that's great. A state with 40M people relies on folks like you who will pay every damn penny to live there.
