Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

- Articles must be relevant to US politics and contain quality and original content. Social Media adjacent hosts like Substack are allowed, but ONLY if they tie back to a company/subsidiary.

You have such a hard-on for Ken, despite the fact that he’s a typical centrist lib who in his own words is happy to continue taking money from “good billionaires”.
I cant wait for the day you realise what he actually is and stop spreading the propaganda.
How about we implement a progressive income tax, no loopholes, instead of fixating on an arbitrary number like fucking dumbasses? How much money CAN one have from which you'd still take money?
Drop the fucking buzzwords. This isn't a game.
Oh hey it’s this troll again. Please you never answered the last time you made this bogus claim - What are these buzzwords you keep imaging.
This has nothing to do with taxation, the issue is money in politics.
Please before bothering me any more on this site, take the time to actually read what has been said you’ve now made this ridiculous completely unrelated statement twice now.
Lol, what's a greater sign of one's insecurity in their own argument than instantly labeling "troll". Pathetic.
Is that how language works? One's own claim requires an answer? I thought answers followed questions. What do you even think is "bogus". Fucking income tax?
"Billionaire". It's fucking arbitrary and it removes the focus from where it should be. "Centrist lib", you sound like a Trumper for fuck's sake.
Oh and ONLY billionaires can put money in politics? Someone with a hundred million, you wouldn't have a problem with that? What is your cutoff? A lot of rich people put money in politics precisely so they can get tax breaks. So no, they're not unrelated. And every time you allow a Republican to come to power over the "centrist lib", you do the super rich a massive favor.
More pathetic posturing to obscure your weak argument. That's all this is. It's not my fault you're too goddamn stupid to understand either why they put money in politics nor how you actually help them.
"Billionaire" is a buzzword now? Lol.
