Poll: A majority of Americans support raising the top tax rate to 70 percent

In the latest The Hill-HarrisX survey, which was conducted Jan. 12 and 13 after the newly elected congresswoman called for the U.S. to raise its highest tax rate to 70 percent, found that a sizable majority of registered voters, 59 percent, supports the idea.

...

45 percent of GOP voters say they favor it while 55 percent are opposed to it. Independent voters who were contacted backed the tax idea by a 60 to 40 percent margin while Democratic ones favored it, 71 percent to 29 percent.

Why hasn't Nancy brought it up for a vote? Should pass the House easily then right?

What are they waiting for?

Doesn't matter if she does or doesn't.

A Democratic House and Democratic Senate will do it, and a Democratic President will sign it into law.

You got a lot of seats to defend in the Senate in 2020.

Why don't you think Nazi Pelosi will bring it up for a vote now?

BTW, do you really think that the democrat party will take back the Senate in 2020? Do you also think that they will eliminate the filibuster? Hell, I hope they do. But, they will be taking a risk. There is a reason the turtle isn't doing it

But, nothing is stopping Pelosi from voting on it now. I mean if the voters support her. Bring it on

There are about 20+ seats the GOP must defend in 2020.

They only hold a 3 seat majority in the Senate.

The following states are competitive battlegrounds for 2020, and all of them have Republican Senators up for election:

Do you agree or disagree with President Drumpf that the government should be kept closed until he gets funding for the wall?
Alaska: 41% agree; 55% disagree
Arizona: 40% agree; 55% disagree
Colorado: 38% agree; 58% disagree
Georgia: 41% agree; 55% disagree
Iowa: 39% agree; 56% disagree
Maine: 33% agree; 63% disagree
North Carolina: 39% agree; 57% disagree


Do you support or oppose President Drumpf’s demand that Congress spend billions in taxpayer dollars to build a wall along the southern border?
Alaska: 47% support; 51% oppose
Arizona: 44% support; 54% oppose
Colorado: 42% support; 56% oppose
Georgia: 48% support; 48% oppose
Iowa: 45% support; 51% oppose
Maine: 40% support; 57% oppose
North Carolina: 48% support; 51% oppose


Does (your Republican Senator’s) support of President Drumpf’s plan to keep the government closed if he doesn’t get funding for a border wall make you more or less likely to support her/him in his next election, or does it not make a difference?
Alaska (Sullivan): 41% more likely; 50% less likely
Arizona (McSally): 37% more likely; 50% less likely
Colorado (Gardner): 37% more likely; 49% less likely
Georgia (Perdue): 41% more likely; 51% less likely
Iowa (Ernst): 37% more likely; 49% less likely
Maine (Collins): 32% more likely; 53% less likely
North Carolina (Tillis): 42% more likely; 48% less likely

It is a little early to make 2020 predictions and I don't think the government shut down will impact any voters two years from now, although you may feel differently.

I know this for sure. There is no way that the democrats will hav a filibuster proof Senate if they do in fact take back the Senate.

I also know this. I can't wait for the shit show that is going to be the democrat party primary. Did you see Kirstern Gillecunt just announced? I mean who is surprised? The twat has been signaling for months

Hey Toby

Do you want to go back to the entire 1950 tax code or just the top bracket?

Also can you tell me Toby, how much revenue you think AOC is going to generate with a top marginal rate of 70% for those making more than $10,000,000/year?

Well, you massively miscalculated the result of the 2018 election, laughably thinking there would be a #Walkaway because of how mean liberals were being to you on social media and in public.

So since you were so wrong about that, why would you be right about this?

Don't count on it.

As you said, anything is possible.

November 2020 is a long ways off, with plenty of opportunity for you to fuck up further.

If you think things will get better for Conservatism between now and then, you're in for a rough ride.

The Democrats are going to unite behind whoever gets the nomination, like how we united around the party last November.

I do not see the GOP uniting around Trump, though. I foresee a lot of "No True Scotsman-ing".
