March 9, 2020 - Fox News hosts corner Bernie Sanders' hypocrisy on taxes. His response says it all. [theblaze.com]
Bernie wants you to pay your 'fair share' — but what about him?
"Your taxes do show you're a millionaire," Fox News host Bret Baier said. "But your marginal tax rate [in 2018] was 26 percent because of President Trump's tax cuts. So why not say: 'I'm leading this revolution…Sanders responded: "Pffttt...come on...I am— I paid the taxes that I owe." Noting that Sanders does not advocate taxing the wealthiest Americans at 70 percent — like some of his Democratic colleagues — Sanders said he believes the rate should be 52 percent, which he supported during his 2016 presidential campaign. Martha MacCallum: "Alright, so 52 percent. So, would you be willing to pay 52 percent on the money that you made?" "You can volunteer, you can send it back."

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.If we are honest with ourselves, we admit that almost every Democrat in office has resulted in breathtakingly higher taxes, as they squeeze the taxpayers of their incomes with every trick and tactic they can, justified by entitlement programs that have insititutionalized multigenerational dependence on things like welfare - guaranteeing a non-working class of immense proportions in the US. Sanders, AOC, Biden (as a figurehead) and every Democrat candidate has promised to accelerate that.
