Senator Elizabeth Warren makes the case for the wealth tax: "This would affect the top 1/10th of 1% in America. And it would be a way to raise about $3 trillion in revenue. Joe Biden ran on raising taxes on the people at the very top and on giant corporations … (Republicans) get why this is popular.” Aired on 03/15/2021.

Elizabeth Warren: 'The Wealth Tax Is Popular Across America' | The ReidOut | MSNBC
It’s time the filthy rich help out, especially now. They’ve been crickets!
Amen!
It’s time for the rich to give back a bit more
@B K Right.
Just every person has thousands of dollars to throw at a project.
These people come from money.
@Drake Fire If you cant borrow 100k, go to bed kid
@B K Alright. I look forward to you taking your own advice and ending up a millionaire.
Tell me how that works out for you. I could use a laugh.
@Drake Fire I own 3 properties valued well over 1M. I probably make more than you just off of rental income. Go to bed kid.
@B K Right, random person on the internet, whatever you say.
nobody in the mainstream media has ever needled a republican congress or senate member the question of WHY THEY HAVE DIFFERENT AND CONTRADICTIVE OPINIONS IN DC THAN THAT OF THEIR CONSTITUENTS IN THEIR RESPECTIVE STATES ABOUT POPULAR POLICIES…..!!!!!!
Well played Senator Warren
Maga cult: “Down with the wealth tax!!”
The 1%: “Yeah, what they said!”
Maga cult: “Down with the wealth tax!!”
The 1%: **tells butler to pour them more champagne** “Idiots.😅😂 “
No, we believe you are entitled to the fruits of your labor. Not you or the government. Funny how you Democrats also stole the labor from the slaves. I don’t care that there’s rich people. Good for them. I don’t live life envying those that have more. It’s a sad was to live.
Reverse tax cuts for the rich… America is full of optimistic people who somehow believe that they either win the lottery or become Beyonce in the near future
We need to reverse the Trump tax cuts and indeed increase the tax rate on the rich.
We’ve got to get that wealth circulating again somehow.
We are not a democracy. We are an Oligarchy
Tax those millionaires, billionaires and corporations. It is time they pay their part.
@Timbone So would Apple and Google move to another country? or Berkshire Hathaway? Because they all have agreed to support it.
@Budget Bill Please educate yourself.

Companies are known for hiring the staff that helped create tax laws in a bid to find loopholes.
It is a fool’s errand to think we can force corporations to pay a fair share of taxes
@Budget Bill they would move in a heartbeat.
@Nick Naque Mostly because they want to be where the money is. New York and California have the highest number of wealthy people per capita for a reason.
@Nick Byler Yeah, coming from the red-state welfare leech.
Let me know when you actually start practicing what you preach.
Of course, you’d rather punch down, think you’re doing good, rather than punch someone that can punch you back.
I feel good about the Wealth Tax.
It’s time to dine on the rich.
YES, TAX ACTORS, MUSICAL ARTIST, ALL PROFESSIONAL SPORTS, AND MOST OF ALL POLITICIANS. GET RID OF FILING SEPARATELY
100% doable Warren is the Best
We need to go back to New Deal style wealth tax. It was in play until 1976, and the middle class has strangled as the wealthy has thrived ever since the wealth tax was diluted by conservatives. FACTS!
Get corporate individuals and the top 1% to help pay down the deficit. Nobody wants to talk about that.
You mean to recoup all the costs for welfare, prisons, drug rehab, medicare, section8 housing and food stamps the top 1percent consume? Oh wait….all the top 1 percent do is pay over 40 percent of all taxes in the country, create jobs, educate their children, start businesses or invest in the country’s future
It should be 5 cents on the dollar, and 10 cents above 1 billion..
10% would leave him broke in 10 years.
The rich need not worry, ‘trickle-up’ will keep them rich, regardless !
🤣… love your Comment !
It’s time to say no to Wall Street bailouts no more bailouts for the rich it’s a casino
These two women are just brilliant in their respective fields. I always pay attention to them.
Say what you will about Warren, I know she is imperfect, but that’s my girl! Love her!
