you're right. the problem is that the republicans don't want to tax the 1% at all. and in order for us to have a healthy economy, the richer need to contribute more. it's basic economic principle, but i guess you dont know a thing about it.

Rutab you kinda sound like a libertarian and from that POV everyone left in the GOP race is a crappy option.
you mean the same young people who grew up tech-savvy, aware that the entire world is in the hands of human beings, collectively, and therefore we are all responsible to our planet and each other as protectors of not only our race but our only home in the universe (for now)?
yeah.
and you're right, germ. dems are no good at balancing the economy for free market benefits, but no, you've been fooled if you think regulation is bad. do you really think companies like comcast should be allowed to operate the way they do? do you really think Citizens United should exist, where corporations act as financial 'human beings' for the sake of lobbying interest group motives directly into our political system? do you want a country that runs companies or companies that run our country? do you really trust companies to safeguard your values? lmao if you do. and thats what the republicans couldnt care less about, and the dems are at least trying in many, granted inadequate, ways to do

You literally can't tax the 1% to death and expect for an entire country's debt problems to go away

What if I am a Republican who supports gay rights, knows that climate change is real, and doesn't want the economically idiotic policies of someone like Bernie Sanders?

this telemundo girl asking questions is actually the dumbest person Ive ever listened to
I'm fully willing to admit I am a socialist atheist, even though I know proper socialism is a foolhardy dream that will never be realized. Also, I added the atheist part so republicans can hate me more :3
basically republicans are, by and large, the most backward and unintelligent part of the country. you're basically the cancer that's killing us all - literally, since you refuse to believe in climate change and want the apocalypse to come.
you're as intolerable as insects at this point tbh

This website hates Republicans because it is mostly inhabited by young people who as a demographic lean socially farther to the left now more than they ever have.

I would argue that democrats have literally 0 concept of balancing regulation and free market, except they lean on the regulation side...and I think that's much more devastating to the economic well being of america than the opposite

You don't have to be a Republican to watch a Republican debate. Any concerned citizen should watch all debates from both sides. Just because you don't agree with something means you only have to watch stuff that validates your point of view.
im glad you see that the democratic party is also corrupt. thats great, but you have to be aware that there's one party that's mediocre and one that actually gets effective, contemporarily-relevant policy passed. thats the dems.
the repubs literally have 0 clue what they're doing, and their economic policy consistently shows that.
you dont retain MNCs as domestic juggernauts based in our financial hotspots by letting them take their entire operation and potentially relocate. you reign them in and make the country consistently worthwhile to operate businesses in. Free market with no regulation does not sustain a good home economy. it helps growth abroad, but not at home. you need a balance of free market policies alongside careful, well-drafted legislation that both protects consumers and businesses.
republicans literally have 0 concept of this, and think that businesses should run wild. that is a terrible idea, because eventually the business can fiscally detach from the US entirely.
