I haven't edited one single word on this. You could confirm that by checking the edit history. I literally never said Biden raised tax rates on the rich. I always said he raised taxes on corporations. I know exactly what Biden did so why the fuck would I say he did something I knew he didn't do?
Fantastic. You go do that and try to "catch me". Post your findings here. Another way to go is to look at the edit history on Lemmy.
You don't get it at all. It's not about lowering taxes on the poor. I said that wealth inequality is linked to almost all our other problems. It is precisely because the wealthy want super low taxes that the GOP tries to keep spending low. We don't have universal health care because the wealthy want super low taxes. (ie wealth inequality). We don't have a decent minimum wage because wealthy people want to maximize profits on assets (ie wealth inequality). Almost any problem you name I can tell you how it is linked to wealth inequality.
