Yeah good luck with that. The Democrats hold the House, Senate and Presidency and decided against the policy you argue for (austerity), in favor of debt monetization and liquidity. But they went even further, In the BBB bill, they favored tax cuts for the rich through bringing back the State and Local Tax deduction (SALT). I'm not sure who will enact your punitive tax increases. Any ideas? AOC and Warren represent a very small minority.

Current policy discussion doesn't change the result presented in the article, the only thing I've been discussing.

> your punitive tax increases

again, never even talked bout INCREASES, only stopping cuts. Do you know the difference between not cutting and increasing? If you do are you just trying your hand at fearmongering? Nah... you seem the kinda folk who would only argue in good faith.

Well I'm certainly for tax cuts. Especially in California - a high tax/very low service state. I mean just walk outside of your apartment dude. If you see that as a success story something is wrong with you. I'd never look at SF or California government and say "Keep doing that".

friend, are you seriously going back to the beginning of the thread and trying to say California is bad, then tax cuts are good? Are you stuck in a loop? do you need help?

You accused me of not addressing your point - tax cuts are always bad (how boring). But Good luck with your crusade.
