I like to compare capitalism for all and capitalizing off chaos by the few. It always got me following a chain of command rather than chasing a money trail. Always goes back to the core of why humanity corrupts each generation historically arrived so far.
The problem is not all the things you idiots claim are socialism within capitalism actually are.

Yes much to our own destruction.
What they won't tell you is that not everyone will pay that percentage.
Do you recall what happened in high state/local tax left wing States when the SALT deduction was limited to $10,000?

Democrat complain that Republicans give tax breaks to the wealthy yet those Democrat controlled States fought against those deductions. I don't believe poor people pay enough to reach that limit.

On top of the flat tax for income Norway relies on a value added tax othwrwise known as a consumption tax which constitutes to 30% of Norway's revenue. You dems ready to roll that out on your base?
That's not what they want. That's what they say.
Good to hear you want us to be like the liberal, social democratic welfare state of Norway. Let's do this.
Lefties have often said they'd have no problem paying more in taxes if the money went to things that they supported. When the President and Congress gave them a chance to prove that by limiting the SALT deduction to $10,000, ultimately meaning those in blue States with high state/local taxes would pay more in federal taxes, they fought against paying more.

Where did I say i wanted it asshole? This is why you're a cockroach. Are you ready to say you support a 38% flat income tax and a VAT on the dems? Answer the question bitch.
Despite you being an idiot, even you don't believe everyone would pay that percentage.
If Cypress believes everyone will pay 38.2% in taxes, he's a bigger dumbass than he presents himself as being.
Yep, just like you, I would like to adopt many aspects of the Scandinavian socialist model
Norway has a progressive tax system
