Question by : In 2012 when the Democrats retake the House, should we tax the rich?
We Say Enough is Enough!
End the Bush-era tax giveaways to banks, corporations and wealthy individuals.
Close corporate tax loopholes, especially billions in tax subsidies for the oil companies.
Raise new revenues by restoring 70% tax rate on incomes over $ 1 million.
Raise $ 150 billion a year by imposing a financial transaction tax on Wall Street speculation.
Cut the military budget by half. Bring troops home from Afghanistan and Iraq.
Create jobs in a major public works program to repair our nation’s infrastructure and to make our nation number one in “green industry.” Target the jobs to hard-hit inner city communities and the rural poor.
Fully fund a national health care program and drastically increase federal aid to education, Pell Grants, and other vital human needs programs.
Remove the cap on the Social Security payroll tax, so that CEOs and hedge fund managers pay the same rate as the rest of us.

Answer by Ms Boss
lol you’re funny.. There has only been three or four times in the history of America where the House has changed from a Republican majority to a Democrat majority….. it coincidentally seems to happen when the generation dies out, the generation that remembers what happens when democrats are in charge…
What do you think? Answer below!
Yes, and you are a racist Conservative posing as a democrat.
no and no
Oh yeah! In fact, I think Obama should campaign on these very ideas. Please, oh please, let him campaign on these ideas. He won’t and neither will any other Democrat because to do so would be the death knell of their campaign and they know it. Now that isn’t to say that these ideas aren’t in their heads because they absolutely are for most Democrats in Washington and every left wing liberal on the face of the earth but I can guarantee you, not one single one of them would say these ideas publicly. The reason is because they know our nation isn’t moving to the left wing side of the political spectrum. And just as an added piece of information, putting these ideas into practice is what lost the House for you Marxists out there who call yourselves “Progressives”.
