According to who? RW grifters lying to you?
The people responsible for dividing the country are RW 'newsmakers.' Lying to the country and tricking people into believing conspiracy theories and propaganda.
You can disagree all you want. I'd wager the majority of things you are taught by your media are lies about Democrats. This is how republicans stay in power. Lying to the public with hopes they'll vote against a party rather than for.
Dude. Every statement you have made has been equally divisive. This is the point of the topic! You have been duped, they have been duped, we all have been duped. You have been duped into thinking the Democratic party has the countries best interests at heart, while the Republicans are trying to destroy it. And vice versa. The reality is, the wealthy elites rule this country. It doesn't matter who wins elections - everything they do is to first protect the interests of the wealthy (themselves) and second, get reelected. Third, is to make sure you direct all your anger at the Republicans and they direct all their anger at Democrats. It couldn't be more obvious.
Do you want proof? Let me show you how income tax works work for wealthy people. I started a business with two nickels in my pocket. I was able to raise $500k from investors and I own roughly 40% of the business. During year 1, I lost all $500k in development (part of the plan),while I took a paycheck every month. I didn't invest $1, I didn't lose $1. The following year I made $75k. Guess how much I paid in taxes??? ZERO. Absolutely nothing.
Why? Because, the business that I own 40% of lost $500k. So based on the tax code, I lost 40% of $500k ($200k). I get to pretend I lost $200k, when I really didn't lose $1. I am also allowed to write off that $200k pretend loss for 7 years. As a result, I paid no taxes the first year. No taxes the second year, and only partially paid taxes the third year when my $200k loss was finally used up. If I continued to make my money this way, I could effectively make millions and pay little to no taxes myself. This is EXACLTY why we never saw Trump's tax returns, because he makes almost all of his income this way, so I am guessing he pays no taxes (he always has huge pretend losses). This is one of dozens of ways the wealthy are able to pay way less than the average middle class W-2 filer.
The wealthy elites have convinced the poor & middle class that they shouldn't have to pay as much in taxes as we do, because they are going to take this money and create more businesses and more jobs. In reality, its going directly in their pockets. Bigger houses, bigger yachts, gold toilets.
Now, what could we do if they made me pay income tax and everyone else who makes income this way? Well, we could easily cover things like Medicare for everyone. Or an additional 4 years of school, to add to the 12 years we get for free now. We could eradicate homelessness. We could eradicate starvation in this country. We could do something about the mentally ill people roaming the streets of every city across the country. We could pay police offers twice as much, to attract only the best talent and decrease or completely eradicate police brutality. The list goes on and on. OR...we can just do the same horse**** we do now, which is absolutely nothing but make sure the rich get richer, while we blame each others political parties for the countries problems.
