Not since the Great Depression has wealth inequality in the US been so acute,
Top 0.1% now worth as much as the bottom 90%. Prior to Reagan and trickle-down economics in the mid-80's, the bottom 90% held over 35% and the top 0.1% about 10%. And yet, the wealthiest among us still want more!
This data is from 12 years ago, but it is only WORSE now.

If the revenue isn't replaced (along with cuts) with a flat/consumption/fair tax, then it's a waste of time.
When it comes to spending money, republicans can waste it as much as the democrats.
Nothing the Democrats have done of offered has ever helped the majority of the people. Obamacare caused my healthcare to skyrocket and quality to plummet. Democratic scandals, such as those seen in Minnesota with the Somalians, far too common. It's past time to support out President.
Right ... other than the 19th Amendment, Social Security, GI Bill, Medicare, Medicaid, Securities and Exchange Act, Rural Electrification Act, unemployment benefits, Voting Rights Act, Head Start & student loans,
Republicans? Tax cuts for corporations & the wealthy.
Is he Tim Waltz level incompetence? No, but with a republican majority, he could do better. Listen to The Eagle every morning and Randy will give you all the details.
Allowing gambling on sports, while ACL, relocation and retirement occur in that same instance sounds premeditated. Reversing voter decisions is communist! And, have car dealers started getting their commission on the property tax collections, yet?
Killing the rural public schools. Promoting the St. Louis County private school agenda. Where is the accountability for private schools supported with public money?
Governors tax policies are misguided. Capital Gains and income tax elimination will shift the tax burden to lower and middle income folks. Saying this is to attract new business is a weak argument.
He's continued Missouri's race to the bottom with Texas and Florida when it comes to this culture war bull, his proposition to eliminate income tax is fake populist pandering, in reality it's a rug pull on the poor and a handout for the rich.
Because he hasn't done anything to help people get affordable housing or access to healthcare. He takes money from big companies to build data centers.
Long awaited, can always get warmer, can't always get cooler. Absolutely love Winter!
