While so many average Americans struggle to make ends meet, this is happening:

Corporate income taxes are $77 billion lower than last year, primarily due to the Republican tax cuts for the rich.

This figure represents a 15% decline from the previous year, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

Cough cough BS. For taxing the crap out of the rich makes everything wonderful right DUmmies 🙄

Democrats didn't mention people struggling when their party was in power.

When the Dems were in power, a lot of people couldn't even find the "ends". Much less, make them meet.

No corporation pays a penny of taxes. The customers who buy their products and services pay every penny of taxes.

Republicans had nothing to do with any tax cuts during the Biden Pedophile Junta years.

ABSOLUTELY NOTHING YOU INGORANT AND INDOCTRINATED KUNT.

In DUmmieland only Trump tariffs are paid by consumers.

Biden tariffs and corporate taxes are paid with magic beans.

All it takes for me, is looking in the cooking forum on DU:

I argued that point endlessly with many liberals.  They are all for taxing corporations to "pay their fair share", but you mention tariffs ... now all of a sudden it's the customer who is paying those and they want to call it a tax.

Another Dem that has no idea how taxes work. Remember when Warren Buffett said he paid less in taxes then his secretary? Anyone that has no idea that they should be paing a capitol gains tax at that income level is noy someone you listen to about financial advise.

IT'S THE PUKE STEW!!!  Good times.  Look at those gigantic leaves of whatever that is.  Imagine lifting one of those with a spoon.

For years, I’ve been trying to figure out a way to get them to understand that. This is the best that I could come up with…

Let’s say one of the top DUers decides to start a business. Since the DUer is very proficient in producing stupidity, it decides that its business will be selling stupidity to people. Before you laugh, maybe there are people out there who would kind of like to join DU, but they feel that they just aren’t stupid enough so now they can buy a box of stupidity from this business Dummie. Well, the DUmmie’s business grows, and it hires employees to help it to box up and ship the stupidity. Now, all of a sudden, the government decides to raise the taxes on the DUmmie’s business. The DUmmie has two main choices. It can continue the status quo and pay the new taxes out of what was once profit and cash to advance the business. Doing that could result in operating at a loss OR the DUmmie can raise the price per box of stupidity high enough to cover the taxes which is essentially passing the tax onto the consumer. Now, I’m sure that the DUmmies reading this will claim that they’ll just pay the taxes out of their salary, but that (like most things that they say) is a lie. Even if they did do it the first year, by the second year they'd be saying that the hassle of running this business isn't worth what they're making and would raise prices or close the door.

I think they understand just fine, the same way that deep down, they understand that a woman can't be a man and a man can't be a woman.

But they're too broken to admit that 'there are 4 lights', to the point that they'll call you every name and label in the book if you tell them that there are 4.

These 'people', are among the most malleable , weakest willed people one may ever encounter, anywhere.

I used to think that, but these days I think some of them are so far gone and brainless that the only thing that they understand deep down is that Orange Man Bad per orders of the overlords.

I have no doubt that a large portion of them are exactly as you describe.

Thru the years, their lack of intelligence and common sense, along with their pathological need to lie and mindlessly follow their overlords, have constantly surprised me, but what has surprised me even more is that there haven’t been a lot of mental health studies performed in regards to DUers. I realize that most of the college professionals who would do such studies are also lefties so they wouldn’t want to reveal to the world the zoo (aka DU) where they keep the ones that even other lefties feel are too loony, but if I were to ever decide to try to pursue a PhD involving mental health, DU and its members would have to be the subject of my doctoral thesis.
