“Didn’t Dems say they wanted to raise taxes on the wealthiest? Doesn’t this do it with minimum harm to middle class people?”
Yes, it raises taxes on upper-middle-class Republicans in places like Southern California. Are you surprised that the GOP lost House seats in Southern California two years ago? A lot of Republicans were angry because the GOP Congress had just punished them with higher federal taxes - The irony is, these same GOP voters oppose California’s high tax, but the national GOP is punishing them for those high state taxes that they oppose.
Umm... no.
“A lot of Republicans were angry because the GOP Congress had just punished them with higher federal taxes...”
No, federal taxes were not raised, in fact they were lowered quite a bit. I’m sure everyone here but you understands the difference between capping a deduction and raising taxes. And I’m sure everyone here but you understands that the problem is taxes in those areas are confiscatory.
It looks like you are fairly new here. Have you showed up to try to sway the next election? I’ll give you a hint, you’re wasting your time here using illogical statements. Those work on Democrat voters only.
I have a nice place in Las Vegas taxes 750 a year
