"I actually believe in redistribution"

Bullshit. Your taxes for to pay for government expenses. Most of it goes for Defense, Medicare, and Social Security. Most of the rest goes into infrastructure like interstate highways and national parks and 10 Cabinet Departments doing the work of government, of which only a tiny fraction goes to helping poor people get by. The notion that someone is taking from the rich to give to the poor is astonishingly naive and foolish.

Well, goose-stepping fascists tend to make meaningless statements like this. Got an example? I didn't think so.

Roe has been US law for 50 years. If it is extreme to support US law, then I question your logic. Perhaps it is because you stand out there on a goddam extreme yourself.

That is for the Supreme Court to say.

I saw the graphs and immediately saw the flaws. But Gallup is a smart pollster and the breakdown graph shows the true picture. Republicans skew the numbers on overall opinion of the enemy party.

52% is not a clear majority, it's a split opinion. Clear majorities are 71% democrats who thought the party was "about right" and 85% Republicans who though the party was too liberal. Clearly partisan opinion.

 

which of it?

 

How? If I buy a widget for $100 and later sell it for $200, then I have made a $100 capital gains profit upon which I am taxed.

 

Democrats opinion of their own party is all that really matters.

52% vs 43%. The ten percent who think the democrats are too conservative also disagree with the 52%.

In any case this data is almost 3 years out of date.

 

OK, call it one share of a widget stock. How has it been taxed twice?

 

The gain on that share is income that has not been taxed before. The original share price is not taxed again, only the gain.
