    You realize your ideas that are also being suggested by most people here are radical, right? Radical left is a thing, and this place is overflowing with it.

    It’s one thing to suggest doing something about the cuts, but most here don’t think that’s nearly enough, proposing literal theft and preventing movement outside the country. I would argue it’s just as insane here as it is in far right circles, just a different kind of insane.

            I mean we are talking about a US issue, so yeah it does matter what the US thinks on US issues, and it really doesn’t matter what the rest of the world thinks.

            There aren’t many countries out there who don’t have a history of that stuff, I don’t see why the issues of the past matter at all in this scenario.

                    Nobody is actually suggesting income tax brackets here, they are suggesting taxing loans and taxing wealth. The things being suggested here have never been done, and yes they are radical because nobody had been crazy enough to implement these ideas ever in the whole history of the US.
