yes lets trust government and the bankers and mindlessly repeat their propaganda lines.

>Crime drops under Biden

Crime: its a fact you can read if you want, but I know the cult don't care.
GS: they are a well known financial company.. With more financial recourses than most news sources. :cry: I know tucker hasn't said it so it must not be true.

crime is 'down' because they stopped counting crime from many major cities and looters have free reign.

Goldman Sachs is a well known corrupt megabank with close ties to people in government. They get bailouts, favorable regulations and cheap money and have a vested interest in seeing that continue.
Being rich does not make them an unassailable and benevolent authority on what is good for the economy.

Democrats went from occupy wallstreet protests against the bankers to now taking their word as gold. What a sad turn.

the real question is who here is at or above 100MM net worth?

And there it is.

What's going to happen is that the wealth tax then has a precident to exist, and the threshold will keep going down down down until regular ass people with a upper-middle class salary will get wealth taxed based on "unrealized gains" from home appreciation despite them only owning one home. Just an example of what has a 100% chance of happening. What do you think is going to happen? That only hyper rich people ever get taxed and that money goes to you somehow? :rofl:

There is a 100% chance that my prediction on the wealth tax will be right if Kamala wins. And there is a 100% chance that *you* will suffer economically but cope to yourself because your party won. You'll hold your knees in the corner of the room mumbling "Trump is a traitor" to yourself repeatedly while a social worker comes by and wipes your drool every so often.
