re: #15 Buck

Yes, I suppose “as much as we need” could be “a known amount.”

it could be an infinite amount, right, Buck? But what it definitely could not be is, actually, a known amount, no.

You see, taxation works by saying a certain percentage will be taken.

The scary, unreal thing you’re talking about would be a law saying that the amount taxed on the rich would be equivalent to whatever spending had been decided upon.

I’m really unclear at this point if you just can’t see how twisted your argument is— like your argument about how the GOP was just using the word ‘violent’ in reference to only allowing abortions for violent rapes in order to underline the severity of the crime, rather than to, you know, limit abortion access, which was the entire point of the bill— or whether you do understand that what you said was burning hyperbole of the worst kind, but your pride or whatever won’t allow you to admit it.
