if the Dems win house, senate, and white house, you'll also have to fill out the section about what your skin color is, in order to determine what your tax is to pay for Reparations

maybe have to include a photograph

So absurd
Reality
We will be going back to the Obama years
Reparations didn't happen then, won't happen ever
That's just some extremists that have no broad support
I'm against reparations, against tariffs and for capitalism
I'm voting for Harris that supports freedom of choice

Freedom of choice for what? Does she support freedom of choice for individuals to possess nuclear weapons?

Freedom of choice is such a broad term that I don't know of a single politician that supports complete freedom of choice.

You are getting ridiculous with this baseless fear mongering. Must be frightened of the Harris/Walz ticket.


Worrying about taxing unrealized capital gains is not baseless, it is something we should be scared to death over. Nothing more than wealth confiscation.

All capital gains should be totally tax free but one thing at a time.

Freedom of choice not to get the china virus vax? Nah. Liberals showed they do not believe in freedom of choice there.

this may be what Ams is talking about. It's an opinion piece but talks about something i was unaware of, not having watched the convention, Harris's "freedom" theme . Evidently the idea is to head off criticism, and in the most Orwellian way possible, by twisting the meaning of the word

Very dishonest reply.

I was replying to a quote about how white people will have to pay annual reparation tax and send IRS skin color proof. There is no such proposal and this a straight lie. I did not say anything about capitol gains taxes.

I have no idea what you are even talking about. What do you think I said about freedom?

The right is acting like Dr Evil is running for President.
The rightys have no common sense
Not much will change
Except the freedom of choice in having an abortion
If the Dems can run the table on both houses and executive
Maybe we can get a national right to abortion
Maybe
Probably not
It's tough to change anything in this country
That's reality
Other then that, same ol same ol
The fear mongering on the right is by intellectual lightweights. They can't deal with the reality that there ain't much a President can do. The position comes with tremendous influence but not much power. That's why Trump admires Xi, Putin and Kim. Unlike Presidents, those people have tremendous power

Re the taxing of unrealized gains, some say SCOTUS will shoot it down

but I leave this for the Lefties here to think about when they say "oh, I'm not rich, it won't affect me "

You can go down each and every one of the Bill of Rights and say "oh, why care, that doesn't affect me" . Think about that

It's very important we don't agree to these things that are just wrong

you know, it's even in the 10 commandments not to covet what others have
