Top marginal tax rate on any income over $10M per year. And the majority of the country is in support of it.


And just like it did the past few decades wealth will flee (which Trump is reversing).

This is what hallowed out the economy in Venezuela. High taxes leads to exodus of wealth and jobs. That what you want?

Of course politicians will say it to get elected by people who don’t know better, but it’s not sustainable in today’s global economy and people like Cortez know it.

I would NEVER support a tax rate of 70% on anyone. I don't care who you are or how much you make.

70% is a good start. We had a great period of prosperity when it was 90% - don't you want prosperity?

frick this. NO ONE is entitled to anything that anyone else works for. Much less 70% of it. It doesn't matter how much it is or how great the intentions for the use of the money.

What? This isn’t my viewpoint...
I am listing Ocasio-Cortez’s viewpoint and am asking the opinions of the liberals/democrats/socialist in regards to it.

Well I imagine that a majority of the money would go towards unfounded liabilities, additional pensions for government workers, and most likely it will go towards the ever growing group of people who are dependent upon government assistance.
