In the 1940-1950, the federal corporate income tax was 50%. That means businesses like Apple or Microsoft, or tesla, would pay 50% of their income in taxes back to the government.rof we are going to roll back the clock, might as well reimburse higher taxes as well.

Lastly, the only side I oppose are those who are corrupt and line their pockets. Thay goes for all Republicans, magazines, and democrats. We need reform and we need to kick them all out and start anew. Including orange shitler.

45 and 46 started the vaccine and pushed it through trials because it was a crisis. It was untested, yes. However, better practices from 45 in regards to public health and better messaging (other than denying the virus, then shifting later) could have saved hundreds of thousands.

1. I'm on no one's side. I think there shoukd have never been 2 parties just like our forefathers intended. 2. I'm not a liberal or conservative. I'm a libertarian and think we need to restart. 3. 45 and 46 did a huge disservice, but 45 could have prevented deaths early on.

You mean the joke of a vaccine that Trump started and Biden finished? Remember operation warp speed? I do.

A little triggered aren't we? Hey, it's whatever you want to believe. I'm telling you 45 did a disservice to Americans, and 1.1 million deaths are on his hands. I worked front lines saving your asses and tried to keep covid deniers from choking on their own fluids and die. But what do you know?
December 9, 2024 at 10:15 PM
Bruh, I work in medicine, that's exactly what some people did. They took 45's words too literally. Also thanks for electing a wannabe dictator.

Not quite the meme I was looking for, but close enough.

My university makes millions of dollars off of their football team, grants, donations, and tuition. Yet they also get tax-exdmptions as part of land-grant university deals. They don't deserve a dime.

I got a grant while I was a grad student, and the school took 60% of it (this is common practice).

Scar, although a Disney villain (and fascist too), reflects my sentiments towards my fellow Americans.

I thought I'd add to my previous comment. I was out deer hunting, and this fox walked right past me (I was in a blind). I sat there and watched him/her for 3 hours scavenging the field and pouncing on things. For those wondering; no I did not shoot it, just took pictures.

Absolutely. I wasn't trying to be a dick, really. Glad to have a civil conversation. I'd say in 99% of cases, you're right Bee. I was one of the outliers.
