29. -- "TAX SHIFT"
Tue Jul 16, 2024, 08:24 PM
Jul 2024

It's about damn time somebody FINALLY used this phrase.

This has been going on for over 40 years now -- shifting the tax burden off of the wealthy and onto the middle class and the poor.

It's being done both directly (ie: actual tax-rate changes) and indirectly (running up the national debt, where the interest payments then dry up funding for literally everything else, but the repayment is deferred to the next generation(s) -- to be payed by the children of the middle class and the poor, of course, because the same tax-shift that benefits the rich NOW also benefits them in the FUTURE when it comes to who pays the national debt).

This has been the game plan for a long, long time.
