All they want to do is exact revenge for their imagined slights, and feed the Pigs.
Why can’t Republican Kevin McCarthy get votes needed to become Speaker of the House?

Hmmmm.........Wasn't there a big uproar and threats of lawsuits when the blue state billionaires had to pay the taxes their blue goons passed?
And then you had a big cryfest just a few days ago when a certain "bad orange man" used those same legal tax loopholes to lower his tax bill, because dang it! only billionaires who donate to the DNC should pay no taxes right?

Why is anyone ok with a billionaire not paying taxes?
They get elected and bail out their buddies and this isn’t a problem for right wingers WHY?
We were able to land on the moon the last time paying taxes in this country wasn’t a creative legal project of Houdini escapism. SMH

They actually think they're in the same boat with the wealthy. They have no clue. The wealthy have shifted taxation onto the middle classes from themselves. They are simpleton's that don't see it.

I’ve always said no one has any business being a Republican who isn’t filthy frickin rich.
Because otherwise you’re a sellout to your own people, which are the working class.

They've also shifted increased the retirement age for Seniors while awarding themselves lavish retirements and gold plated pensions for politicians in your country, @Lily
Geez, I'd be screaming bloody murder if I was a US citizen and demand that if they get their benefits cut back, Congressmen, Senators & Judges get theirs cut too.
Actually a politician who makes $100,000 USD or more per year shouldn't even get a pension and they should just be told that since they make such good salaries they have enough to build their own retirement savings funds.
I call that Highway Robbery and a Shit Deal for working Americans.
And it's so unfair to the American working class.
Americans should revolt.
As @Dove pointed out, the Elites and the wealthy don't want you guys to retire and remain as their work slaves right to the grave.
Americans should just tell their politicians to Fuck Off, they want a referendum on the issue and if their country can't afford their pensions, well then the country can't afford pensions for retired politicians and USSC/Federal justices either.

Taxes don't pay for shit.
In a fiat monetary system like ours money is created out of thin air.
All the arguing about national debt and taxes is another control/wedge mechanism.
Taxes exist to:
1) Delete excess money from the system (ostensibly to control inflation)
2) Prevent the kind of run-away wealth disparities we see now under unfettered predatory capitalism

You should demand an end for pensions for your politicians.
How come many Americans still don't have complete access to proper affordable healthcare, and all these politicians in Congress get all these fat benefits, including the Democrats who are supposed to represent the working class in America?

Corruption. Isn't it obvious?
'Murica is an oligarchy (or plutocracy, or kleptocracy, or corporatocracy depending how you view such things). It hasn't been a democracy or even a representative republic for decades and decades, if ever.
Our "government" is a wholly owned subsidiary of Multinational Capitalists Incorporated.

The value of the dollar does affect buying power, so it is important to control inflation. I will say people focus too much on taxes and not enough on wasteful government spending.

The inflation we are seeing is just a different form of taxation levied on the middle and lower class but these idiots are too stupid to see that

Well it's not great in Canada either @The Prowler, but it's not quite as severe as the US.
I don't think politicians who make over $100,000 per year while they are in office should get a pension like they do in either Canada or the USA or be able to vote themselves pensions increases.
if they couldn't make it while they were in office raking in the big bucks then tough shit when they retire. That's the way it is for everybody else, so it should be for them too.

But do you think these young firebrands are truly interested in social justice or creating a more equitable society @The Prowler? I think they see themselves as the future of that party or one which will succeed it, and they're positioning themselves for greater things. It's kinda like the pigs in Animal farm who declare this revolution, that everything will be better when they take over, but of course when they do, nothing changes.
I think they're just like any other power hungry politicians of either stripe.
Incidentally, the so called progressive wing of the Democratic party and their lobbyists plays those games too, seeing how much they can get for themselves.
ie - CRT just seems like a power grab for certain groups who want a bigger piece of the pie and more power.
So everyone in the US seems so power hungry regardless of their political stripe.

Yeah, the lower and middle class are getting nailed badly with inflation and high interest rates. Some people are finding themselves in a hole that they might never climb out of...

But these idiots don't think these liberals are billionaires who avoid their taxes
I mean, how much of an idiot do you have to be to actually believe billionaires donate millions to the campaigns of politicians that are going to crack down on them
but these two idiots have never been regarded as smart on any forum they ever visited

...but unlike you @fudgepacker I don't side with either Democrats or Republicans
I think if I was an American I wouldn't belong to either party but would be more inclined to register as an Independent.
You clearly have this bias in favor of the Republicans.
But I don't. I just view them both impartially as 2 American political parties and side with neither believing in their own ways they are just as bad as the other.

Oh you mean by emasculating the OCE Office Of congressional Ethics, and undercutting the investigations of 4 house republicans, is that the corruption investigations you were referring to?
