We should tax billionaires to insane levels (75%+) so we can reduce taxes for >99% of the population.

Qualitative economics is underrated.
Quantitative economics is overrated to the point that a large amount of quantitative economics should be tossed in the garbage bin of history.

Red states except for FL with DeSantis aren't flippable all these states like WV, MT, MS, KY are all within 5 pts or less MOE we didn't win OH and WI but AZ, NV, GA, PA which were polled by Marist were within 5

Also KS 22 which D's won, because RS do nothing about 50 M in poverty 30/100 M are blk and Latino 20/200 M are whites but Females vote 51/55 percent D they are a large percent of 20/200 M Single mom's

Laki and S019 made KY and MS Gov safe R Hogwash

It's over that Covid and poverty is over and thst people don't need anymore help and stimulus check is enough ,lNO IT'S NOT Homeless, incarcerated rate and poverty of 50 M is the same 33 percent of minority population is still impoverished the difference between now and Reagan Revolution is now it's Section 8 and back then widespread affordable projects Gallego is running to repeal the Filibuster otherwise Sinema can win on her own behalf for Voting Rights

RS think and R politics think it's over that's why we celebrate blk history Jesus, Moses, Allah, Buddha didn't celebrate wealth

That's an extremely dangerous take.

FL is Lean R, not, there are alot of Jewish, Latinos, Blks, and Sicilians that can vote D, just  like Gore and Lieberman could of won if they counted dimple chads but that's why we have provisions ballots now

Golden Girls Bea Arthur was a Feminist and so was Rue McClanahan and Betty White and Estelle Getty all Ds, they represent centrist FEM in FL and that's why Biden is tied with Trump and down 3 not 20 to DeSantis

I made OH, SC, NC and FL safe D like AZ, NM, CO, NV

We can get 53 Seats with the blue wave and 230 DH that would be a 52/46 Victory and Obama won a landslide in 2008 52/45 winning IN, NC, OH, FL and IA

There are more D's than Rs 65/60 M

Shrinkflation is actually a good thing. It will result in Americans eating less.

Then there should be a tax refund for those of us with healthy BMIs. Fatties can get it too if they can provide video proof of benching their weight (for men) or squatting their weight (for women).

This is the sort of thing people talk about whenever they mention how high tax rates were in the 50s and whatnot. What they're missing is that virtually no one was actually paying those 50s tax rates because the tax code was still riddled with loopholes and exemptions. I don't disagree with this fundamentally (FYI it's definitely not unpopular), but closing all the tax loopholes that exist should be a higher priority, because higher tax rates won't mean much if that doesn't happen first.

There's nothing wrong with women benching and dudes squatting their weight for proof, if they want.

Good point. Some penalties need to exist so fat people can be less fat. Personally I think some form of weight-adjusted health insurance plan (say, allow companies to charge fat people more for healthcare if it is accompanied by a reduction in costs for normal people)

There was nothing wrong with the southern strategy as the southern strategy helped break up the new deal coalition, inaugurate a new economic era , the racists weren’t given what they wanted policy wise and it ensured we wouldn’t end up like Canada or the UK

It’s racist to condemn governments like those in China, North Korea, Iran, or Saudi Arabia.

If I were ever raped, and there was a resulting rape pregnancy that ended in anything other than an abortion, I would definitely want that to be treated as an aggravating factor to the criminal act, with the criminal sentence accordingly being longer than it otherwise would have been. And I think all applicable rape victims should have the right to demand that this be the case if desired.

Rape should be a life sentence offense IMO.
