I like how they mention a bunch of "progressive" stuff then slip in "eliminate capital gains taxes" (ie a giant gift for the rich)

So letting people keep what they earned is a gift?

Well normally investments stimulate the economy and create jobs. Why tax money that's going towards economic development? The solution is to cut spending not taxation.My main point here was, how can giving a a tax break be considered a gift? It was their money to begin with. It's not their fault the government spends like a little kid on the day after Christmas.
